Warner, do you have a recipe (especially regarding proportions) for that pan of gastronomical delight, or do you just wing it and dump it in?
So my short answer is no. I googled “smoked cheese dip “ or “cheese dip on the grill”. Then kinda picked some stuff out of a couple recipes. So a not so accurate account of what went into this one. 4 links of chorizo 1 of the smaller blocks of velveta 1 block pepper Jack 1 chunk of smoked Gouda 1 jalapeño 1 green bell pepper 1/2 white onion 3 cloves of garlic 2 cans of rotel with the green chilies 1 can of cream chicken soup. In a 9x13 foil pan cut cheese into one inch chunks add browned meat, dice veggies and cans of stuff. Put on indirect heat until the level of molten lava is where you want it. like I said it was good but the “artificial orange cheese” flavor was kinda strong for me. I’ll try different cheeses next time.
i have good luck making cheese sauce with colby-jack mixed with mozz for the stringy effect..gruyere work too
The Mexican joint we frequent has a pretty good cheese dip with pico and chorizo. I had to ask many times to find out it’s just plain old white American cheese!
Same thing when we asked at our local joint. We were like "whhhuuuttt"? We thought they were pulling our leg at first....
I do something like this to avoid the velveeta- Cup of milk 1/2 to whole stick of butter Slowly bring to gentle boil, cut heat down- wait a few minutes to cool. With heat on Low, whisk in (small amounts) of a 2 cup package of shredded cheddar, stirring continuously so that cheese melts thoroughly before adding more. Makes a great cheese sauce that can be fairly thick- add more cheese if you want a spoon to stand up in it. We sometimes add muzz or grated parm for a little change of pace. I can appreciate SKEETER McCLUSKEY ’s desire for stringyness, but we don’t like that for a sausage dip. PS- boiling the concoction or adding all your shredded (or sliced/chunked) cheese at once will definitely result in stringy cheese sauce.
Uummmm.... SKEETER McCLUSKEY ....you've got a delicious looking hunk of smoked beef there...but then you show a grilled ham and cheese sammich...?
