In a microwave safe large bowl, mix together the shredded chicken and barbecue sauce. (Use as much barbecue sauce as you'd like...more or less! Heat the chicken and bbq sauce mixture in the microwave if it is not warm. This will help the sandwiches heat through properly. 3 cups shredded chicken, 1 cup barbecue sauce
Use a large serrated knife to slice the rolls in half, separating the tops from the bottoms. Place the bottom of the rolls onto the prepared baking pan. 12 Hawaiian bread rolls
