  Cheese Filling: Put the cream cheese and shredded cheese in a small mixing bowl and stir to combine. Work in the garlic, bacon, jalapeño, lime juice, cilantro, 2 teaspoons of Traeger Cajun Rub, and the hot sauce. Taste for seasoning, adding more rub or hot sauce as desired.

  Using a boning knife or paring knife, carefully make a slit in the center of the thickest end of each chicken breast, moving the knife toward the thinner end to form a deep pocket. Use the handle of a wooden spoon to gently widen the hole. Stuff each pocket with some of the cheese filling.

• 3

  Oil the outside of each chicken breast with the vegetable oil and season with Traeger Cajun Rub. If desired, pin the hole shut with a toothpick so the cheese filling doesn’t leak out.

  When ready to cook, start the Traeger grill on Smoke with the lid open until the fire is established (4 to 5 minutes). Set the temperature to 350 degrees F and preheat, lid closed, for 10 to 15 minutes.
