- Layer the bottom side of rolls with 6 pieces of provolone, add shredded BBQ chicken, top with 6 more provolone, layer the pickled red onions and pickle slices on cheese, and finally, place top of rolls on top of pickles.
- Melt better, add brown sugar, and stir to combine; spoon over top of sandwiches, and sprinkle with about 1 tsp BBQ Rub.
- Place another piece of foil over sandwiches and seal edges.
- Bake at 325 for 20-25 min.
- Slice up and Enjoy!!
