Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients

  • 2 cups shredded cooked chicken Adds moisture and protein.
  • 1 package cream cheese, softened (8 oz) Provides a rich, creamy texture.
  • 1/2 cup Buffalo wing sauce Introduces heat and flavor.
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing Offers creaminess and tanginess.
  • 1/2 cup blue cheese or your favorite shredded cheese (optional) Adds flavor depth and creaminess.
  • 1 handful cilantro or green onions, chopped (optional) Adds freshness and color.

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your smoker to 350 degrees.
  • Season the chicken as desired and place it in the smoker. Smoke the chicken for about one hour at a higher temperature of 425 degrees.
  • Once cooked and cooled, shred the chicken to create two cups of tender meat.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded chicken with the softened cream cheese, Buffalo wing sauce, and ranch dressing.
  • Fold in any optional ingredients like cilantro, green onions, or blue cheese gently.
  • Taste and adjust seasonings if necessary, then serve.

Notes

For best results, ensure your cream cheese is softened, and mix the dip well for even flavor distribution. Leftovers can be stored covered in the refrigerator for up to three days.
