Dutch Oven Smoked Turkey Chili Recipe is perfect for leftover turkey! I love to get big turkeys and to make recipes out of the leftover meat.  This year was no exception!  (I have included affiliate links to products I love. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.)

Now smoking foods is nothing new but I have fallen in love with using my Pit Boss Pro 1100 as more of a convection oven. However, it gives the added bonus of smoke flavor!!  I picked up mine at Lowes, but Walmart and Amazon carry other Pit Boss options or Pit Boss website themselves.  Even better if I can use leftover smoked meat in the dish.    Now I used my Smoked White Chicken Chili recipe to make this and it did not disappoint at all!

How To Make Dutch Oven Smoked Turkey Chili 

 

Start out with leftover shredded turkey. I  love to smoke a turkey, my brined turkey, Jack Daniels Brined Turkey, and dry-rubbed turkey are perfect for this!!  

 

Start-up your smoker to get the smoke rolling! I set my Pit Boss Pro 1100 to a smoke setting of P7 for the smoke setting.  I also closed the chimney stack to allow more smoke to stay in the smoker.  This time around I used mesquite pellets to smoke my chili.

 

Smoked White Chicken Chili Recipe takes comfort food up to another level! Used smoked chicken breast to give even more flavor to the chili and warm you up!

 

If you are using a cast iron dutch oven wipe it down with oil so as to help make sure that it is ready to cook without having stuff stick.  I use an old cast iron dutch oven the old lady picked up for $5 and has worked amazing! An Enameled Cast Iron would work as well just know that the smoke may stain the dutch oven.

Using a strainer strain out your white beans and add to your dutch oven.  . (If your beans have a flavored sauce just dump those into the crockpot as is.) 

 

Shred your turkey and place it into the dutch oven.  

 

Cut up your onion, you can use red onion or yellow onion in this and add to the dutch oven. 

 

Add your chili green to the mixture in the dutch oven. 

 

Season with your cumin, salt, peppercorns, and cayenne pepper to your taste. 

 

Pour in broth and water until it is well covered and give it a good stir to mix everything together.

 

Once your smoker is ready take it out to your smoker and allow it to smoke.  You will not be using the lid or cover at all for this recipe. 

 

First I allowed mine to smoke on the smoke setting for a half hour then turned it up to 225.  I allowed it to slow smoke and cook for 4 hours at 225 degrees.

* You can thicken up the chili if you want with 1/4 cup of corn starch and 1 cup of hot water in a small bowl and then mix into the chili a half-hour before serving.
