Chipotle Barbecue Chicken Sandwiches

Chipotle Barbecue Chicken Sandwiches: Savory Sweet and Satisfying

This sandwich was so amazingly delicious. So much so that my husband asked if he could eat 3 or 4 more of them!

The flavor combinations in this sandwich go together so well. The barbecue sauce has a sweet smokey flavor to it with a subtle kick. The chipotle peppers add to that smokiness and give it a little bit more of a kick. Then you have the sweet pineapple to help balance out the spiciness. Such a delicious combination.

I used a chipotle honey barbecue sauce because I though it would go so well with this sandwich, but you can use any barbecue sauce.
