Smoked chicken salad is a game-changer, turning that boring shredded chicken into a flavor-packed dish. I like to smoke the chicken with pecan wood, which gives it a great bronze color and a mild, nutty flavor that pairs perfectly with the creamy dressing. Of course, it tastes even better with smoked pecans and crunchy veggies that add texture. Try adding chopped cranberries, golden raisins, diced apples, or even grapes
