BEER CHEESE FONDUE
Soft pretzels, sliced German sausages, pickled garden vegetables, and roasted Brussels sprouts can all be dipped in this oozy cheese sauce for one amusing wintertime party. Swiss Alpine-style cheeses are the best choice for fondue, given their earthy, robust flavor and excellent melting quality. Substitute any easy-melting cheese for the Gruyère found in this recipe. Raclette, Emmentaler, Cheddar, Fontina, and Gouda are all delicious choices, and can be blended for a more complex flavor.

CHEESE FONDUE MELTING POT CHEDDAR WITH BEER RECIPE - (3.9/5)

Steps:
- If you are using an electric fondue pot, turn it onto medium; otherwise use a double boiler to heat up this mixture. Place beer, garlic, dry mustard, and Worcestershire sauce in the pot and combine well. Shred or cube the cheeses and toss with flour, coating the cheese well. (The flour will help thicken the sauce.) When the beer mixture is warm, add one-third of the cheese and whisk very well. Once the cheese has been incorporated well, add half of the remaining cheese and whisk in very well. Add the remaining cheese and whisk until nice and smooth. Cooks notes: If you do not wish to make this with beer, I cannot give you a suggestion for the beer other than a product like O'Doul's or a near-beer with less than 3.2 percent alcohol. The beer flavor really adds a lot to this dish. Please do not serve this dish to people who do not drink alcohol. Alcohol really doesn't fully cook out of the food. The Melting Pot uses vegetable broth in place of beer for those that do not want alcohol. It is just as good as with the beer.

Tips:
- Choose the right beer for your cheese dip: Different styles of beer impart different flavors to the dip, so choose one that you enjoy drinking and that will complement the other ingredients. For example, a light lager or pilsner will give the dip a clean, refreshing flavor, while a dark ale or stout will add a rich, malty flavor.
- Use a variety of cheeses: Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of cheese to create a unique and flavorful dip. Some popular choices include cheddar, Monterey Jack, pepper Jack, and Swiss cheese. You can also use a combination of different cheeses to create a more complex flavor profile.
- Add some extras: To make your beer cheese dip even more delicious, try adding some extra ingredients like cooked bacon, chopped green onions, jalapeños, or diced tomatoes. These additions will add flavor and texture to the dip and make it even more irresistible.
- Serve your beer cheese dip warm: Beer cheese dip is best served warm, so make sure to heat it through before serving. You can warm it up in the microwave or on the stovetop. If you're serving the dip in a fondue pot, keep it warm over a low flame.
