Cook the best chicken breasts in the pit boss pellet grill smoker! See how to make juicy smoked chicken breasts without brine… This super smoky main dish recipe comes with two seasoning ideas. Let’s smoke juicy and flavorful chicken in the pellet grill… Smoking a pit boss smoke chicken breast is super simple! Poultry is amazing at picking up smoky flavor, and leftovers are great in smoked chicken sandwiches and on salads. So this recipe is a real crowd pleaser at my house. The time that it takes to smoke chicken breasts depends on how thick or thin the chicken breasts are. If you have super thin chicken breasts, the cooking process will take less than an hour. If your chicken breasts are on the thicker side, like ours in this recipe, you can expect the process to take anywhere from 1.5 – 3-ish hours. Again, it’s always recommended that you use an internal read thermometer and pull the chicken breasts off of the smoker when the internal temperature reaches 165 - 170 degrees F.

About This Video

In this video I’m cooking chicken breast on my Pit Boss Pro Series pellet grill, and I’m keeping it simple for beginners. I started with two big chicken breasts and used two seasonings I really like: Killer Hogs BBQ Rub and an AP seasoning. I didn’t use a binder because the chicken was already moist, so the rub sticks just fine. I lay down a good coat of AP first (but not too heavy because it has salt), then I go over it with the BBQ rub for that big flavor and nice red color. For the cook, I set my Pit Boss to 275°F and I’m cooking based on internal temp, not the clock. I put my probe (temp spike) into the thick part of the breast so I can monitor it on my phone, and I place the thicker side toward the hot spot. I like pulling chicken breast at 170°F, but you can pull at 165°F if that’s your preference. Mine took about 1 hour and 15 minutes to hit 170°F, and the big takeaway is this: time is just an estimate—ride the internal temp until you hit the doneness you like.
