    This is a sponsored post on behalf of Curly's. All opinions are my own. 

    If you’ve been following along with my recipes this year, then you’ve probably seen the delicious Curly’s BBQ recipes I’ve been sharing. I love working with Curly’s because it’s a brand that Angeline and I have been buying for years!

    What’s not to love? You can find them at pretty much every grocery store in the refrigerated meal aisle, there are plenty of varieties, and they make for quick and easy meals for busy families or singles.

    I have so enjoyed creating recipes using Curly’s BBQ, like my recipes for BBQ Chicken Sliders, Enchiladas with Mango Salsa and Pulled Pork BBQ Arepas. This month, I am doing something new for Curly's and created a Game Day Appetizer using the Curly's BBQ Ribs in this BBQ Ribs Queso Dip Recipe!

    Football season is in full swing and lots of people are gathering for their game nights - I had one of my own a few weeks ago, where a friend came over and we watched the game together and I made plenty of snacks for us.

    I can't wait to have him back over and make this BBQ Ribs Queso Dip Recipe for him, I know that he'll love it!

    How to Make a BBQ Ribs Queso Dip Recipe

    Now, I have made plenty of queso dips in my day. I used to host a ton of parties and queso is ALWAYS received with wide open arms by party goers!

    But I wanted to use the Curly's BBQ Ribs for this queso dip recipe, so I did some internet searching and came across this Alton Brown recipe that used rib meat instead of ground beef or sausage.

    Of course I changed it up, as I was making a BBQ ribs based recipe - it is just so easy to grab Curly's BBQ ribs in the meat section and throw those bad boys into the slow cooker!

    BBQ Ribs Queso Dip Recipe

    Ingredients

    • One package Curly's BBQ Ribs
    • 12 ounces sharp cheddar cheese 
    • 8 ounces pepper jack cheese (I used sliced pepper jack because it was on sale at my grocery store)
    • 8 ounces cream cheese
    • 8 ounces whole milk
    • ½ cup green chili 
    • 1 can Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

    Directions

    Now, as with most slow cooker meals, this was easy-peasy. My biggest note is that when you open the Curly's BBQ ribs, do not just shake it out into the slow cooker. There is A LOT of sauce in that package and you don't want that - you just want the ribs and the bit of sauce that is going to be stuck to them.

    Now, it does not really matter which order you place the rest of the ingredients into the slow cooker, just wait to add the whole milk until it's cooked. The beauty of a slow cooker is that you just throw it all in and worry about it later!

    I cooked this on the low setting for about 3 hours.

    Once it is done - it takes about 3 hours on low - stir it together so that all of the cheeses combine. You'll be able to easily remove the bones from the ribs once you begin stirring it up. Then add in your milk and stir again until it's completely combined and leave on low setting for about 30 mins.

    This BBQ Ribs Queso Dip Recipe is rich, thick and so flavorful! It has a kick to it but it isn't actually SPICY. So it's perfect for people like me who enjoy the flavors but don't really enjoy "hot" foods. The green chili lends smoke and heat but without the kick of jalapenos, which are used in the original recipe. 

    You can serve it up with celery, tortilla chips and assorted pepper strips!
