So I’m watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. Guy walks into some joint where the specialty of the house is BBQ lasagna. So you know I’ve got to give this a try.
The lasagna prepared on the show uses pulled pork, chicken and spicy sausage, though I would suggest any combination of meats would work. Great idea on how to recreate leftovers! For this platter, I used the following:
- 1.5# pulled pork
- 1.5# pulled chicken
- 1.5# andouille sausage
- Sweet & Smokey BBQ Sauce– about 3 cups
- Lasagna noodles
- Shredded cheese- I used a mix of Monterey jack/cheddar and mozzarella, about 4#
- Though I didn’t use it, some Italian seasoning would probably be good sprinkled throughout
For this beast, I had a 12×17″ pan. Spread a light layer of BBQ sauce on the bottom, followed by a layer of noodles, pulled pork, cheese and more BBQ sauce. Repeat with a layer of noodles, pulled chicken, cheese and BBQ sauce. Add a third layer of noodles, andouille sausage, cheese and BBQ sauce. Top with layer of noodles, cheese and a BBQ sauce drizzle. Or, if you are preparing your lasagna for a bunch of guys going to Canada in 2 weeks, you can try your artistic skills out on a Maple leaf.
Smoke for 30 minutes, then cover and bake at 350 for about 90 minutes. Let set for 10 and enjoy!
