Spicy Beer Queso and Pork Rinds
Ingredients:
1/2 pound ground beef
1 large shallot, diced
1 small jalapeño, seeded and diced
1/2 red pepper, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 1/2 cups of your favorite beer
1 (8-ounce) block of cream cheese, softened
12 ounces of white cheddar cheese, grated
1 cup of black beans

Southern Recipe Pork Rinds for dipping
Directions:
- Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add ground beef to the skillet. Cook through. Remove cooked ground beef from the heat and place on a place on a plate lined with paper towel.
- Keep the heat under the skillet around medium-low and add olive oil, peppers, shallot and garlic with a pinch of salt. Stir well to coat. Let cook until softened, about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Turn the heat up to medium and add beer. After a few minutes, stir in softened cream cheese and continue stirring until it’s melted.
- Once it is creamy, add in the white cheddar, stirring again until melted and reducing the heat to low. Stir in the black beans and beef, then remove from heat and serve immediately.
- Top with scallions and cilantro if desired and serve with Southern Recipe Pork Rinds.
