How to Setup the Big Green Egg for Smoked Chicken Spaghetti Casserole
This smoked chicken spaghetti casserole is cook at 350 degrees. It is an indirect cook in which you’ll need the plate setter / conv”egg”tor inserted with the legs facing upward. The cook time is roughly a hour to a hour and a half.
How to Cook Smoked Chicken Spaghetti on the Big Green Egg
Start out by breaking the spaghetti noodles into about 2″ pieces and lay them evenly in a 9 x 17 “ish” pan.
Pour the Chicken Broth over the noodles. Set aside and let the noodles soak while the chicken mixture is made.
Cut the 4 chicken breasts into cubes and place in a mixing bowl.
Add the mayonnaise to the cubed chicken breasts.
Followed by the Cream of Celery.
Then the Cream of Chicken.
Lastly, the bag of Colby Jack or Cheddar Cheese.
Gently mix all ingredients together.
Scoop the chicken mixture over the noodles that are soaking in the chicken broth.
Lightly mix the noodle and chicken mixture together and spread to an even layer in the chicken pan.
The Big Green Egg should be dialed in right around 350 degrees.
Once the BGE is holding around 350 degrees place the Chicken Spaghetti Casserole on and close the lid. Smoke for about an hour and check the internal temperature of the chicken.
If they aren’t probing at 165-170 let it keep going. The cook varies from 60-90 minutes. Once the internal temp is achieved, pull it and enjoy!
