How to Make Simple Queso Recipe

Start by pre-heating the Blackstone Griddle to medium heat.

While you are waiting for the grill to heat up, dice your Velveeta cheese and pepper jack cheese into 1-inch chunks.

Place in a metal pan.

Add the sliced jalapeno peppers and diced onions.

Once the griddle is preheated, fry up your ground beef until there is no more red.

Add the ground beef to the metal pan.

Then add the minced garlic and liquid smoke.

Next, dump in the can of Rotel diced tomatoes and green chiles.

You can place the pan on the Blackstone griddle if you want before adding the items.

​Turn the grill down to low heat and place a cover on it.

Check on it every 10 minutes or so. Stir well to combine.

When the cheese starts to melt, stir it up and keep an eye on it.

When it’s all melted, remove it from the griddle and enjoy!

You can place it in a small slow cooker to keep it warm.

Dive in with your favorite tortilla chips or add a touch of creativity by pairing it with fresh vegetables, pretzels, or even toasted bread.

The possibilities are endless!

Feel free to customize this recipe according to your preferences.

You can add cooked shredded chicken for a heartier version, or experiment with different types of cheese to create unique flavor combinations.

2. Crackers: Try serving your smoked queso with an assortment of crackers for a varied and interesting texture. Look for options like buttery crackers, whole wheat, or even flavored varieties to add an extra dimension to each bite.
3. Breadsticks: Crispy breadsticks can add a delightful crunch to your smoked queso experience. Choose thin, crispy breadsticks or grissini for a light and savory pairing.
4. Vegetable sticks: For a healthier option, offer an array of fresh vegetable sticks such as celery, carrot, and bell pepper. These crunchy and refreshing vegetables will provide a balance to the richness of the queso.
