This was my exact reaction. This was my first time making queso and I'm kicking myself for not doing it sooner.

And it's great, because the recipe is infinitely tinkerable. Different kinds/portions of cheese, different veggies, etc. I'm 100% adding more peppers next time. It was tasty, but not quite spicy enough for me.

I have taken my first steps into a larger world.
What did you use to make this batch?

~16 ounces store brand velveeta
8 ounces pepper jack
1 10oz can rotel
1 small onion
2 small serrano peppers

It came out great, but congealed very quickly as it cooled, so I think I want to add some milk or something next time so it has a bit more viscosity.

I also plan on tripling the amount of peppers, since it wasn't close to spicy enough for me.

I used basically the same ingredients but added chorizo. It's certainly a very adaptable recipe.

Yeah, I wanted to add some chorizo or ground beef but I made it for a get together and one of the people going had her sense of taste knocked out out alignment by covid. She says that most meats now just taste super bloody/metallic-y, so I skipped it for her sake.

One of the things my wife is experiencing is that pickles all taste spicy for some reason.

It’s pepper picking season! Two batches of sauces made, and a third one fermenting now.

This guy is a pineapple and mango base, some sweet onion and red bell peppers to add volume and darken the color. Mildly flavored with about forty to fifty red habaneros. It’s got a bite…

This guy is a blueberry and blackberry base, some lemon zest and juice. Dialed down the habaneros to about a third of the above, basically one per bottle. Some good building heat on it without overpowering.

Third one is not a finished product yet, still fermenting in the garage. Making a riff on salsa verde with tomatillos, poblanos, cilantro, white onion and some garlic. Doing two batches: one with ghost pepper and one with Trinidad scorpions.

To say I have an over abundance is the understatement of the year. I still have a couple gallon freezer bags of peppers to work with. Plus a whole thing of scotch bonnets I want to use to make my own jerk sauce for some chicken.

Want some? Say the word.

I would very much appreciate some homemade got sauce provided it isn't going to kill me
