Ingredients
- ½ pound bacon slices
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ½ yellow onion , diced
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon Stone ground mustard
- 8 ounces cream cheese , softened
- 1-12 ounce beer , (preferably an IPA or dark brown ale)
- 6 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese , (about 8 ounces)
- Generous dashes of hot sauce such as Frank's or Tabasco
- Kettle Brand Chips for dipping
Instructions
- Heat oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add bacon to a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté 10 minutes until just crispy then remove and place on a paper towel-lined plate. Cool and then chop or tear the bacon into rough pieces. Discard the bacon grease.
- In a medium high-sided skillet or saucepan on medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onions and cook until soft, about 3-4 minutes.
- Whisk in the mustard and then add the beer, scraping up the bits from the bottom of the pan. Increase the heat, bring to a boil, and cook for 5 minutes stirring occasionally.
- Add the cream cheese then reduce the heat to medium. Whisk the cream cheese into the beer mixture until the cheese melts and becomes creamy. Turn off the heat.
- Set aside ¼ cup of the shredded cheddar. Add the rest of the cheddar cheese about 1 cup at a time to the beer mixture, stirring until the cheese melts and is smooth. Repeat until all of the cheese has been added.
- Stir in ¾ of the bacon, saving the rest for the top of the dip.
- Spray a 1-quart baking dish with cooking spray. Pour the dip into the dish and top with the remaining ¼ cup cheddar cheese and the rest of the crumbled bacon.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes or until the dip is bubbling. Serve warm with potato chips.
Notes
- To make this dip in a slow cooker: Follow all of the directions above but instead of transferring the cheese mixture to the baking dish, transfer it to a slow cooker insert and cook for 1-2 hours on high. Transfer to the big game tailgate in the slow cooker.
