We all know and love the game day favorite Buffalo chicken dip. This BBQ Chicken Dip Recipe is my twist on that classic, with tangy and sweet BBQ sauce instead of spicy Buffalo sauce. My husband said he actually likes this dip the best!
The crispy bacon topping really makes this dip extra special!
Hello, yummy BBQ chicken dip!
