BBQ chicken nachos are a quick and delicious twist on classic BBQ, ready in under 30 minutes. Inspired by a memorable meal at Central BBQ, these nachos combine salty, cheesy, smoked goodness with a hint of sweetness from BBQ sauce. They’ve become a staple at our house for easy dinners or party appetizers—just use BBQ chicken or even rotisserie chicken tossed in BBQ sauce for a simple, crowd-pleasing dish.
