Tips and Tricks
- For extra creamy results, you can add up to 16 ounces of cream cheese.
- You can use whatever wood chips you’d like. I enjoy pecan, mesquite, or hickory for this.
- Want it extra cheesy? You can top the dip with extra shredded cheese before smoking, if desired, or even mix in some crumbled blue cheese in addition to the cheddar.
