The Grill Makes a Difference
The Gravity Series® 1150 Digital Charcoal Grill and Smoker is ideal for this Smoky and Spicy Truffle Chicken Pasta recipe because it combines low-and-slow smoking capabilities with high-heat searing power—all in one grill.
You can start your chicken low at 250°F to infuse deep, smoky flavor, then crank up the heat to sear mode using the 1150’s powerful cast iron grates. This dual-zone capability is crucial for getting juicy chicken with a golden-brown crust—perfect for topping creamy pasta.
Plus, the digital controls and gravity-fed charcoal hopper make temperature management effortless, so you can focus on flavor, not fire. Whether you're smoking, searing, or multitasking like a chef, the 1150 delivers consistent results with minimal babysitting—just what you need for a layered dish like this one.
