Short Rib Queso
While we aren't suggesting you stop patronizing your local Mexican restaurant, we are certain you can have the best queso you've ever had - right at home. This recipe is one you'll want to bookmark!
We added beef to this recipe but feel free to omit or go crazy and add our pork chorizo - the possibilities are endless!
Ingredients
Utensils
- Dutch oven
- Frying pan
- Cheese grater
- Whisk
- Large bowl (for serving)
Instructions
Pre-heat your oven to 425 degrees.
In a dutch oven, sear your short ribs on both sides. Add peppers, onions, chili powder, beef stock, and cover for 3.5 hours or until tender.
In the meantime, add the butter to your pan on medium heat. Let it melt completely and add the onion. Cook it until soft and fragrant.
Add the garlic, salt, and pepper. Cook and stir for 2-3 minutes or until the garlic is fragrant.
Turn the heat to low and slowly add in the flour to create a rue. Whisk to combine.
Next, add the milk. Slowly whisk it in to avoid clumping.
Once the milk and flour create a gravy-like consistency - add in your cheeses.
Continue to stir the cheese to melt completely.
Once the beef is cooled enough to handle, shred.
Add the shredded beef to the finished, creamy queso and top with jalapeno and cilantro. Serve with chips and enjoy!
