How to Make Smoked Queso
Tips and Tricks
Plan for about 1-2 hours of smoking, depending on how intense you want the smoky flavor to be. The longer it stays in the smoker, the smokier the taste. Queso can thicken quickly, so serve it hot right off the smoker. If it cools, you can reheat it over indirect heat or even pop it back in the smoker briefly to loosen it up again.
