Directions

Preheat your Yoder Smokers YS640s Pellet Grill to 425ºF set up for indirect cooking (diffuser installed) with the Yoder Smokers Cast Iron Griddle installed over the fire box.
Combine the mayonnaise and garlic base, then season with a shake of Cattleman’s Grill Italiano Seasoning and whisk to combine. Spread the mayo mixture onto the cut sides of the buns, about one tablespoon for each half of the bun.
Spray duck fat on the left side of the griddle. Place the shredded/diced chicken meat on the duck fat. Season with a conservative amount of Cattleman’s Grill Blackening Seasoning. Cook to warm, turning occasionally. Pour chicken stock over the chicken as it cooks to hydrate the chicken.
Place the ciabatta buns cut side down on right side of the grill as the chicken warms. Toast to golden brown, then flip and repeat. Remove the top buns from the griddle. Flip the bottom buns to the uncut side and place a slice of provolone on each bottom bun. Let cook just until the cheese begins to melt, then remove.
Dress the caesar chopped salad kit with the included dressing and mix well.
To build the sandwiches, place a slice of tomato on top of the melted cheese. Top the cheese with the warmed chicken. Put a generous portion of caesar chopped salad on top of the chicken, then cover with the top bun.
