Take a Dip

Janet Groene’s 
Beer Cheese Dip

Serve it savory and warm with loads of pretzels, chips, pitas,  raw veggies and all the dippers you like best. The recipe works with regular or non-alcohol beer or ale. This makes a large batch of dip that is so rich you might serve it with chunks of peasant bread, and a salad, for a meal. It makes almost 3 cups of dip. When buying sausage gravy mix, get the packet that calls for two cups of water or milk. 


12- or 16-ounce can of beer or ale
1 packet sausage gravy mix
Half an 8-ounce brick of cream cheese, diced
Shredded sharp cheddar cheese 

You need two cups of liquid, so add water to the beer if needed. Pour beer or ale into a cold saucepan and let it go flat.  Whisk gravy mix in before heating then cook, stirring, over low-medium heat until it thickens. Remove from heat and stir in cream cheese until it melts, then stir in cheddar by the handful to taste. If it gets too thick while cooling, re-heat gently over low fire, adding water or milk if needed.
