Smoked Chicken Salad has quickly become one of my favorites to take in my lunch for at work! Lately, I have been on an eating better kick, mainly cutting out a lot of conveniences and fast food, so reusing my leftover smoked into other recipes has been a lunch saver! (I have included affiliate links to products I love. As an Amazon Associate, I earn from qualifying purchases.)
Now the old lady is normally the one who comes up with some of the lunch ideas so I need to give her full credit for realizing how amazing this would be!! We now once a week smoke chicken and intentionally have leftovers to make up into this. It has yet to fail me on a good lunch, and she seems to find a new way to change it up every week so it is never boring.

How To Make Smoked Chicken Salad
I shared how I love to smoke my chicken breast (see it -> here). This chicken was smoked on my Pit Boss Pro 1100 from Lowes, if you don’t have Lowes Walmart and Amazon carry other Pit Boss options or Pit Boss website themselves. I love that I can set it at 225 with smoke and run inside and take a shower or prep sides and it just cooks my meat with an amazing smoke flavor!
