Just realized that these are all cheese dips…sooo this is the cheese dip episode now! Will do other kinds of dips in the near future!
Bro, you should have gave Tapatio some free promotion, let them Tabasco vinegar weenies know about a real hot sauce.
Can this be mixed ahead of time and then refrigerated, then popped in the oven to melt when desired or will the cheese separate? Thanks
Video idea: make the Pimento cheese from Breaking Bad/Better call saul.
You know, what mike always eats.
Like so he sees it.
This is so helpful. I recently found myself with an exactly 4 pound block of cheddar cheese and have been pining for a solution
You missed me wawaawa the parmesan you didn't even eat it
You should smoke that cheese ball
Una busta d patatine rumorosa LOL top
Tiny toast.

No. Alabama caviar has grated cheddar, Mayo, grated red onion and roasted red peppers chopped. And spiced to your liking.
I've come to the conclusion being unable to make a Rheu because you have a wheat allergy means just wandering, perpetually, dipless.
I'm in a purgatory of dry chips and sadness.
Hi
Blue cheese?
It’s currently super late at night, I’m very sick and extremely restless so I’m just watching Babish now cause why not
Jezabel sauce is a dip, not a sauce. It's cream cheese with pepper jelly. Simple, saucy, spicy. Dip crackers in it.
I would love to see what you could create with a block of "government cheese " basically it's the government version of velveeta and I have 2 big blocks of it, and besides mac and cheese I'm not sure what to do with it lol would really love some suggestions ❤😊
3:52 why is there gruyère there if it’s not being used? 😭
5:09 I love the petite toasts! Are they the pig brand or made by hand?
Someone count how many times he says cheese in this episode. It's a challenge 😜
No artichokes!!
I do not have a 4lb block of cheddar….I do however have a 4lb block of Gouda
Going to start bugging my wife by hitting the hard T in "soften", cheers
The queso was absolutely 💯 perfect! I 😅😅😅 … this is true tex mex queso … that velveta sauce s**t ain't it. This is! 👏 👏 👏 👏
3:43 that's really clever though LOL fundido means melted
