Categories: Poultry, Breads, Chilies, Vegetables
     Yield: 4 servings

     2 lb Chicken thighs; boned,
          - skinned
     1 tb Oil
     2 ts Red-pepper flakes; more to
          - taste
 1 1/2 ts Garlic powder
     1 ts Onion powder
     1 ts Ground sweet paprika
   1/4 ts Ground smoked paprika
          Salt & black pepper
   1/4 c  Honey
     2 ts Cider vinegar; more to
          - taste
     2 c  Green cabbage; shredded,
          - heaping
   1/4 c  Mayonnaise; more for the
          - buns
     3    Scallions; sliced
     1 tb Lemon juice
     4    Onion rolls
          Vinegary hot sauce; for
          - serving

 In a 6 to 8 qt slow cooker, combine the chicken, oil, 1 ts
 red-pepper flakes, 1 ts garlic powder, the onion powder, sweet
 paprika, and smoked paprikas.  Season with 1-1/2 ts kosher salt and
 several generous grinds of black pepper. Stir well to combine all
 ingredients. Cover and cook on low until the chicken is very
 tender, 4 to 5 hours. (The chicken will keep well on warm for
 another 3 hours.)

 At any time before serving, combine the honey with the remaining
 1 ts red-pepper flakes and 1/2 ts garlic powder in a liquid
 measuring cup or a small bowl. Cover and reserve at room
 temperature until the chicken is done.

 Using two forks, finely shred the chicken with its cooking liquid.
 Pour in the spiced honey and the cider vinegar and toss to coat.
 Taste; it may need a little more salt, to sharpen the flavor. Also
 add more red-pepper flakes and vinegar, if you like.

 In a medium bowl, combine the cabbage, mayonnaise, scallions, and
 lemon juice; season the slaw to taste with salt and pepper.

 Toast the buns, then spread with mayonnaise and a few shakes of hot
 sauce. Mound the chicken on the bottom buns and top with the slaw.
