- Move to indirect heat (charcoal) or turn down heat to medium heat (gas grill) and continue to cook for 1-2 minutes or until internal temperature reaches 165°F.
- Place cheese slices on each patty, cover until cheese melts, about 1 minute.
- Toast buns on the grill, about 1 minute.
- Remove patties and buns from the grill.
- Stack spinach, tomatoes, chicken patty, and avocado on the bottom bun.
- Finally, drizzle with your favorite BBQ sauce and top with the bun. Serve warm. Enjoy!
