red onions and some sour cream on hand to top this hearty
main course.

Reviews:
We enjoyed this. It was quite spicy with the 1 tsp of chipotle powder.
but not too spicy. The chicken was very tender and moist. We served it
on whole wheat buns. - Anonymous
We love pulled pork but wanted to try something different. This was
very good; the chipotle chile and the smoked paprika added just the
right amount of smoke and spice. - Debbie, Ma
