Ingredients
– 1/2 pound (about 227 grams) ground beef
– Salt and pepper to taste

– 3/4 cup (180 ml) pale ale beer or substitute such as chicken broth, beef broth, root beer, or cola
– 1/2 cup (about 56 grams) shredded pepper jack cheese
– 16 ounces (about 454 grams) processed cheese product, cubed
– 1 can (14.5 ounces or 411 grams) diced tomatoes with green chilies, partially drained
– 1 cup (about 170 grams) black beans, drained and rinsed
– 1/4 cup (about 40 grams) finely diced red onion
– 1/4 cup (about 15 grams) chopped fresh cilantro
Instructions
1-Cook and crumble the ground beef over medium-high heat in a large skillet, then drain the excess grease to keep the dip from being too oily.
2-Add red pepper flakes, salt, pepper, and beer, then simmer for 4-5 minutes until the beer reduces and flavors blend together.
3-Lower the heat to medium-low and stir in the cubed processed cheese and shredded pepper jack cheese until everything melts into a smooth mixture.
4-Mix in the black beans, red onion, and cilantro to add texture and freshness to the dip.
5-Stir in the diced tomatoes with some of the juice to reach your desired consistency, then heat for an additional 5 minutes before serving.
