Smoked BBQ Chicken Dip
Smoked BBQ Chicken Dip is an easy recipe with only 5 ingredients, a perfect appetizer or game day snack on the smoker or Traeger pellet grill
Equipment
- Traeger/Pellet Grill
- Smoker
Ingredients
- 1 8 ounce block cream cheese
- BBQ seasoning blend
- 1 16 ounce container pulled chicken (or pork) in BBQ sauce (I used Montgomery Inn or you could use leftover homemade pulled chicken or pork)
- BBQ Sauce
- 2 cups shredded Monterey Jack chese
- Fritos Scoops for dipping
Instructions
- Put the block of cream cheese in the middle of a 9×9 dish or foil pan (or similar size). Cut diagonal lines about half inch deep with a knife in both directions (picture example in post above) and season it with the BBQ seasoning blend.
- Preheat your smoker or pellet grill to 225 or 250 degrees. Put the pan with the cream cheese on the grill grate for 45 minutes to an hour.
- Spread the cream cheese evenly in the dish and add the pulled chicken (or pork) in BBQ sauce plus more BBQ sauce (I used about a cup) evenly over top. Let it smoke for another 45 minutes to an hour.
- Add the Monterey Jack cheese. Cook another 15 minutes on the smoker so the cheese melts.
- Drizzle more BBQ sauce over top if desired and serve with Fritos Scoops for dipping.
Notes
Oven Directions: Spread the cream cheese in a 9x9 (or similar size) dish. Add the BBQ seasoning, BBQ chicken or pork, more BBQ sauce, and the shredded cheese. Bake in a 400 degree oven for 25 to 30 minutes.
