Brush a 9 x 13-inch rectangular or 11-inch round baking dish with melted butter. Arrange the bagel pieces evenly in the pan.

In a large bowl, beat together the eggs, milk, salt, and pepper to combine. Fold in 1 cup of grated cheese, half of the bacon bits, and 2 tablespoons of chives. Pour the egg mixture evenly over the bagels, then scatter the cream cheese on top. Sprinkle the remaining cup of cheese and bacon bits over the top, then cover the pan with foil.

Place the baking dish on the grill grates. Close the lid and bake for 40 minutes. Remove the foil and bake until the casserole has puffed and is lightly browned around the edges, 5-10 minutes more. Remove from the grill and let cool for 15 minutes.
