The Best Smoked Queso Recipe!

The season of chips and dip is upon us!  And I’ve never met a cheese dip I didn’t love.  This Easy Smoked Queso recipe will change your life, my friends.  You may never look at queso the same again!  With just a few simple ingredients and ready in under an hour, your addition to the tailgate will be the star of the show!

Feel free to spice it up however you like.  You really can’t go wrong here.  If the queso gets too thick, you can thin it out with milk or cream.  Also, this recipe can be done on a standard grill.  The smoke adds an amazing flavor, but the flame from the grill will definitely enhance the flavor, as well!  And if chili is more your jam for game day, be sure to check out my recipe for the BEST chili ever here!

Grab those tortilla chips and enjoy!
