Notes

Smoker Cooking Process

Take your queso game up a notch with a smoker for that authentic smoky vibe. It’s a bit more work but oh-so worth it!
  1. Fire Up the Smoker: Get your smoker rolling at 225°F. I’m all about using oak, mesquite, or hickory wood to nail that bold taste.
  2. Get Things Ready: Cube up Velveeta and Gouda, then brown the sausage in your trusty Dutch oven.
  3. Mix It In: In that Dutch oven, throw together the cheese, sausage, and your trusty cans of Rotel tomatoes.
  4. Let it Smoke: Pop the Dutch oven in the smoker for about 45 minutes.
  5. Stirring Magic: Give your mix a stir every 15 minutes so everything melts together just right.
  6. Final Flourish: Once everything’s gooey and delicious, stir in some chopped cilantro to seal the deal.
