Preparation

Prep Time: 45min

Easy Beer Cheese Sauce:

Note: Do not use pre-shredded cheese as it doesn’t allow the cheese to melt thoroughly. Sauce can be made a day ahead. Re-heat over low heat until smooth and pourable.

1. Add all ingredients to a blender or food processor. Process on high until very well blended, about 3-5 minutes.
2. Put blended ingredients in saucepan and heat over medium high heat. Whisk continuously until thick, about 5 minutes. Salt and pepper to taste.

Red Ale Pickled Jalapenos:

1.  Slice, the Jalapenos to desired width, put in storage jar.
2. Put remaining ingredients into medium saucepan and heat over medium heat. Stir until salt and sugar dissolve.
3. Pour hot liquid over sliced jalapenos, cover tightly and refrigerate for 24 hours. Will keep for several weeks if stored properly.

1. 1 lb (80/20) ground Chuck
2. Salt and Pepper to taste
3. Large fresh tomato sliced
4. Crispy fried onions
