Game Day Beer And Cheese Dip Recipes

BEER CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• Melt butter, flour, onion powder, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper over medium heat in a saucepan. Cook 1 minute.
• Stir in milk and beer a bit at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition. Continue cooking over medium heat, add in mustard and Worcestershire, cooking sauce until thick and bubbly.
• Reduce heat to low, add cheeses, and stir just until melted and smooth.
• Serve warm with vegetables, tortilla chips or soft pretzels.

BEER CHEESE BREAD BOWL

Steps:

• For the bread bowl: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Remove the top quarter of the bread round, then cut it into cubes and set aside. Using a knife, cut out the interior of the bread round, leaving it hollow. Cube the removed bread and set aside.
• Mix together the olive oil, garlic and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Brush the outside and inside of the bread bowl with the oil mix. Place the bread bowl on a sheet pan and sprinkle the inside with the Parmesan. Toss the cubed bread in the remaining oil and place on the sheet pan next to the bread bowl. Bake until crisp, 15 to 18 minutes.
• For the beer cheese: Meanwhile, add the butter to a large saucepan or high-sided skillet over a medium heat. When the butter has melted, add the onions, garlic and red pepper flakes, then cook until the onions are golden, 8 to 10 minutes. Sprinkle over the flour and stir to combine. Slowly pour in the milk and beer a little at a time, whisking until smooth after each addition. Add the mustard and cheeses and stir until smooth.
• Pour into the crisp bread bowl and serve alongside the bread cubes, pretzel rods, carrots and celery.

BEER CHEESE DIP

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until the flour is completely absorbed. Continue cooking, whisking constantly, for 1 minute.
• While whisking constantly, slowly pour in the beer and half & half. Whisk in the mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and cayenne pepper. Bring the mixture to a boil, whisking constantly, then reduce to a simmer and continue cooking, whisking frequently, until thickened enough to coat the back of a spoon, about 3 minutes.
• With the heat on low, add the cheeses a handful at a time, whisking between each addition, until the cheese is fully melted before adding more. Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and sprinkle with fresh chives, if using. Serve immediately.
• Leftover beer cheese can be covered and refrigerated in an airtight container. Reheat gently on the stovetop over medium-low heat, whisking frequently, until warmed through.
• Note: Lager is a family of beers that includes bright lagers, amber lagers, dark lagers, Oktoberfests, and pilsners. I used Fat Tire because that what I had in the house, but Budweiser, Bud Light, Coors Light, and Miller Lite are all good options. No need to use anything fancy!
