GAME DAY SMOKED QUESO
January 15 2026
Ingredients
32 oz Velveeta, cubed 🧀
8 oz pepper jack cheese, cubed 🌶️🧀
1 lb chorizo 🌭🔥
2 (8 oz) cans Rotel 🍅🌶️
½ white onion, diced 🧅
2 jalapeños, thinly sliced 🌶️
2 tbsp Lola’s Fine Hot Sauce 🔥✨
Prep the Cheese Base
Cube both cheeses into bite-sized pieces and add them to a 9x13 baking dish 🧀
Brown the Chorizo
In a skillet over medium heat, cook the chorizo until fully browned and crumbly 🌭🔥
Drain excess grease if needed, then add to the baking dish
Build the Queso
Add Rotel, diced onion, jalapeños, and Lola’s Fine Hot Sauce to the pan 🍅🌶️🔥
Give everything a gentle stir to combine
Low & Slow Magic
Preheat your smoker or oven to 250°F 🔥
Place the dish inside and cook for about 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until perfectly melted and ultra-gooey 🤌
Final Stir & Serve
Mix thoroughly until smooth and luscious 😍
Serve warm with chips, veggies, or straight off the spoon (no judgment) 🥄
Pro Tip 📝
Keep the heat low! ❌🔥
You don’t want bubbling or boiling — that can cause the cheese fats to separate and turn grainy.
For maximum gooey pleasure, always cook this queso low & slow 🧀✨
