Sharp cheddar, mayo, a little ketchup, finely diced onion and garlic, a touch of Worcestershire and Tabasco. What's not to like? Will provide an accurate recipe if desired.
Yes, PLEASE!

Darned lucky. If you did slip, we'd have soak that cast iron work of art in soap and then rinse it in liquid detergent.
She is safe. Only thing allowed here is elbow grease and a soft, lint free cloth. Or some "wax-paper".
edit: "butter paper"

My MIL always started with a block of cheese and spent hours making this. This adaption is for lazy people with a small food processor.

As close to the original as possible where no written recipe existed.

1 - 8 ounce bag of fine shredded sharp cheddar
2 ounce (by weight) of finely diced onion
1/4 cup of real mayo ( you may add more later if desired).
1 TBS Worcestershire sauce
5 drops of Tabasco
1 rounded TBS of tomato ketchup (Heinz suggested)

Process
Run the onion (+ garlic if used) in food processor (knife blade) until as diced as much as possible for such a small amount.
Rinse bowl and dice half the cheese, remove and do the other half, add the wet stuff to the second half and mix well, pour into bowl and add the first batch of cheese.

** Crank it up!
3 jelly bean sized cloves of fresh garlic and double the Tabasco. Also many will like double the onion.
Best when aged overnight in a sealed container.

Great on your favorite cracker or crunchy snack. I like Ritz.


For those who might want the beer cheese recipe, here is one I found on the web (typos included):

It is obvious that with that kind of snacking, there is no need to buy a K-3. The hociR is not pleased.

Indeed. I have my grandmother's little cast-iron pan... I mean little, too, it's no more than 6". She used it for blintzes and small servings of things. I had to threaten mayhem when my mother (not a cook) went near it with a scouring pad. Thou shalt not use a Brillo pad on a well-seasoned cast-iron pan! Never!

Beer cheese (spread) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Not the best article but reasonably accurate.

There are 2 methods of making the cheese spread. One uses flat beer as the liquid and the other uses a small amount of mayo. I personally prefer a modified version of my MIL's mayo based recipe. Most of the commercial prepared brands are over processed so that the result is more like cheeze whiz with a zip. When we make it at home it is more like a not so creamy pimento cheese (the cheese is finely diced or ground).

Sharp cheddar, mayo, a little ketchup, finely diced onion and garlic, a touch of Worcestershire and Tabasco. What's not to like? Will provide an accurate recipe if desired.
Sounds delicious! I never knew such a thing existed.

Thanks for sharing!

Again, thanks for sharing! I'm gonna have to make some of this now, to go with some good beer and crackers.

Or maybe some "begetables"!

Hey now, that would go great with some beer, the Beer Cheese, some crackers, and begetables!

But hociR is not invited!

Me wants a K-3.

Sorry, I've stayed away from this thread for a bit too long.

And I notice that the K-3 sample photo thread has more views than this one. Does that mean that the hociR is winning?!

Me wants a GR as well.

It is all smoke and mirrors! An underhanded trick to make you think the K-3 is desirable and that you need it! like the Alamo or the Little Big Horn, we will prevail!

Looks to me this principled resistance to hokiR would evaporate if they brought out a bacon-cheese K-3.

K3 is mirror. A7r is smoke.

Right... So all went well at the Little Big Alamo because of all the smoked cheese?

I'm pretty sure a K-3 wouldn't have made any difference. Neither would a A7r!

Anyway, mirrors will always be better than the smoke, hociR or not

Nope.

Not until it has as many posts as this thread.

Well they are in two different countries. Little Big Horn is in Montana, on the Crow Indian Reservation.

The Alamo is in Texas. Texas is a different country. Ask any Texan.

Like Rupert.

He is a Texan.

He should know.

Are you asserting it is like Queensland, a foreign country where they spell beer "XXXX".

As this is a world-wide forum, some may not be aware that for just shy of ten years (March 1836 - Feb 1846) Texas was a sovereign nation. Rupert's old enough that he remembers it.

You can always tell a Texan, but you can't tell him much.
