Yield 1 bowl of queso, 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 lb sausage (chorizo works well, too)
32 ounces Velveeta cheese, cut into cubes
2 (28 ounce) cans Rotel Tomatoes (for added spice use the "Extra Hot" flavor)

Steps:

  • Place Velveeta and Rotel into a crock pot and heat on high.
  • Once sausage is browned, add it to the crock pot.
  • Continue heating on high, stirring occasionally, until cheese has melted.

  • If you are having a large get-together, I recommend doubling the recipe, it's usually the life of the snack buffet.

WICKED SPICY CROCK POT CHEESE DIP



Wicked Spicy Crock Pot Cheese Dip image

I used to go to a friends house on sundays to watch football, and every time I would make a different chip dip in the crock pot. Eventually this one was requested every week! It's pretty spicy. If you want it a little more mild, I suggest using less of the spicy ingredients (regular sausage, regular rotel, minimal peppers) rather than excluding them entirely. All ingredients combine to MAKE the cheese dip :) I use the maximum amount of each ingredient I have listed.

Time 1h15m

Yield 1 bowl of cheese dip, 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 lb spicy Jimmy Dean sausage
32 ounces Velveeta cheese
16 ounces hot rotel (2 cans)
1 -2 fresh habanero, chillis
1 -3 fresh jalapeno
12 ounces salsa

Steps:

  • Start browning the sausage in a skillet, breaking it into small pieces as you would for tacos.
  • Cut the cheese into cubes and throw them in the crock pot with the 2 cans of DRAINED Hot Rotel. You can go ahead and turn it on to get the melting process started.
  • When the sausage is fully cooked, drain the fat and add it to the crock pot.
  • Prepare yourself and your kitchen for cutting hot chillis/peppers. You do not want to touch anything that you dont need to, ESPECIALLY the cover to the crock pot, because it will get on everyone so just leave it off. Wash your hands several times afterwards.
  • Chop/dice the jalapenos fairly well, and the habeneros VERY well. Add to crock pot. As long as you leave about 2 hours for the peppers to cook in the cheese, the actual pepper pieces will not be much spicier than the dip itself.
  • Stir occasionally, and implement step 7 as needed.
  • The salsa is a trick I use for any cheese dip. Because you've used fresh peppers and drained the rotel, the dip will be thick. The salsas primary role is thickness control. You can always thin out a dip, but it takes a long time to thicken one out. Just add a spoon full at a time until it's just right. After it sits out for a while it might need more.
  • Throw in something new and let me know! I think some beans would go in nicely, or some chili.

Tips:

  • Use a slow cooker with a removable crock. This will make it easier to clean up the cheese dip.
  • Shred your own cheese. Pre-shredded cheese contains additives that can prevent the cheese from melting smoothly.
  • Use a variety of cheeses. This will give the cheese dip a more complex flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices. The recipe included in this article is a good starting point, but you can adjust the spices to your own taste.
  • Serve the cheese dip with your favorite dippers. Tortilla chips, bread, and vegetables are all good options.
  • Keep the cheese dip warm. If you're serving the cheese dip at a party, you can keep it warm in a slow cooker on the "low" setting.
