Prepare the Chicken: Place the chicken breasts in the crockpot. In a bowl, mix together the barbecue sauce, chicken broth, apple cider vinegar, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Pour the mixture over the chicken.
Cook: Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours or on high for 3-4 hours, until the chicken is cooked through and easily shredded.

Assemble the Sliders: Toast the slider buns if desired. Spoon the BBQ chicken onto the bottom half of each bun, add coleslaw if using, and top with the other half of the bun.
Serve: Arrange the sliders on a platter and serve warm. These sliders are perfect for parties or as a meal train idea.
