Oh yes—this is ultimate game-day indulgence: creamy, cheesy, and loaded with bacon and burger flavor. Here’s a full recipe for a Bacon Cheeseburger Queso Dip:
🥓🍔 Bacon Cheeseburger Queso Dip
Serves: 6–8 | Prep & Cook: 20–25 min
Ingredients
-
8 oz cream cheese, softened
-
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
-
1 cup shredded mozzarella or Monterey Jack cheese
-
½ cup milk (adjust for desired creaminess)
-
½ lb ground beef
-
4–6 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
-
¼ cup diced onion
-
¼ cup diced pickles (optional, for that true cheeseburger flavor)
-
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
-
½ tsp garlic powder
-
½ tsp onion powder
-
Salt & pepper to taste
-
Optional: 1–2 tsp ketchup or mustard for authentic burger flavor
-
Chips, crackers, or sliced veggies for serving
Instructions
1. Cook the Meat
-
In a skillet over medium heat, cook ground beef with diced onion, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until browned. Drain excess fat.
-
Stir in Worcestershire sauce (and ketchup/mustard if using).
2. Make the Cheese Base
-
In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt cream cheese with milk, stirring until smooth.
-
Add shredded cheddar and mozzarella gradually, stirring until melted and creamy.
3. Combine & Heat
-
Stir in cooked beef, crumbled bacon, and pickles (if using) until well combined.
-
Keep over low heat for 5–10 minutes to meld flavors, stirring occasionally.
4. Serve
-
Pour into a serving bowl and serve warm with tortilla chips, crackers, or fresh veggies.
Tips for Perfect Dip
-
Adjust thickness: Add more milk for thinner, pourable queso.
-
Extra cheeseburger flavor: Top with diced tomato, extra pickles, or even a drizzle of burger sauce.
-
Make ahead: Prepare up to step 2, then refrigerate; reheat gently and add cooked bacon & beef before serving.
-
Spicy option: Add diced jalapeño or a dash of hot sauce.
This dip is creamy, smoky, meaty, and irresistible—exactly like a loaded cheeseburger in every bite.
I can also give a slow cooker version that stays melty and warm for parties or game day.
