Smoked queso

I saw this recipe in better homes and gardens and thought I should give it a try. It's not a traditional queso with American cheese but it's made with real cheddar and Monterey jack cheese it's gooey and yummy! This is basically a fundito style queso that you have to pull the stringy melted cheese out with a warm tortilla.


Smoked queso
8 oz Monterey jack-cubed
8 oz mild cheddar-cubed
1/2 onion -diced
2 cloves garlic -minced
3 jalapeños - diced small
2 Roma tomatoes- diced small
1 tsp dry oregano
2 tsp season salt
Place cheese around cast iron skillet leaving space between each one Put onto 250 smoker and allow to melt Don't overcook or cheese will separate While cheese is melting sauté onions garlic and jalapeños until soft Add tomatoes and seasoning When cheese is melted add tomato topping
