BBQ with Bill! Our May 2022 Featured Chef, Bill Evans, shares his Smoked Chicken Cordon Bleu recipe.
“A smoked twist on a fancy favorite – this recipe adds a good smokey flavor to a decadent dish.”
Slice pasture-raised chicken breasts and stuff with grass-fed Swiss cheese and sliced deli ham, season with a BBQ rub, and cook on the pellet smoker until cooked through and cheese is oozing!
