Howdy smokers. I've had a few people the last few days ask where to find my cowboy queso recipe and since the super bowl is coming up thought I'd post a separate thread. Apparently people don't know that if you want queso you actually have to search for cornish game hens lol

Here are the ingredients and instructions. The pic is from mixing all together. Didn't get a finished pic but I think we can all imagine what melted queso looks like

Brown 1lb ground beef 90/10, drain grease, put beef back in skillet and add a 12oz pale ale(I used sierra nevada), simmer for 4-5 min. Then pour beer and beef into crockpot. Here are the rest of the ingredients. They go straight into crock:

32oz velveeta cubed
8oz shredded pepper jack
Can of rinsed black beans
2 cans Rotel
Half cup chopped cilantro
Half cup finely diced red onion
Tsp red pepper flakes

Mix together and set on low for a couple hours until melted stirring every 30 mins

Thanks dave it's flavor town for sure. We love the stuff. Let me know what you think!
 
Looks like a good one Jake! I'm planning on giving this a try or a dip for the Superbowl. I have to work that day and the wife is getting a cracked wisdom tooth pulled tomorrow. so something quick to snack on sounds about right.

Jake, that sounds awesome!! An amped up version of one of the two things that Tracy is allowed to make. I sent this to her in an email (she's working and not allowed to talk to me) to see if maybe this would make our entire day of eating Sunday. Sounds fantastic buddy and I can promise you that it will get made at some point.

Cowboy Queso? That has my name written all over it, literally.

Too funny!! That is exactly what I was thinking when I read the title of the thread being that you mentioned it in another Super Bowl menu thread a couple days ago.

Thanks Jake. I have a feeling I’ll be eating this one myself, so I may use chorizo instead of ground beef. She came home from the store today with jello, pudding, broth and tomato soup...I guess that’s some what she’s having lol.
