So I picked up everything for some chicken Cordon Bleu for tonight and got them on the grill. No smoking this time around as my wife thinks smoked chicken breasts taste like hot dogs...

Here they are before going on... flavor gods all purpose for seasoning

Doing them on my kettle with baskets set up kinda indirect... even with that they were up to 450 degrees so lost some cheese
 
my coals

I butterflied themy out in 2 minutes to get dinner going and would of rather pounded them afterward butterfly but didn't have time. Black forest ham, provolone, and wrapped in cheap bacon. Wife told me that was good hun bUT all the cheese was saved for the last bite... next time it will be good lower temp and longer... plus more of a rolled chicken cordon bleu.

Thanks for watching be back very soon for a smoked meatloaf on the WSM.

I need to try again soon. Top priority, keep cheese in.
 
Glad all you have the same dang issue keeping cheese in! Was dang good and would not make it without wrapping in bacon because the amount of juice it still had was great at a temp of 175 in a breast.

Al kept his cheese in. Maybe he will let the secret out.
 
Practice fellows!

Really it looks delicious Adam!

The secret is to seal it up tight, I put bacon over the ends, also let it rest after it's done for a half hour or so.

Then the cheese will set up a little & won't run out.
