Notes

  • Cheese Variations. You can make this dip with pretty much any cheese combination, though I do like the cream cheese for the extra creaminess. Feel free to substitute with parmesan or Gruyère for a different flavor.
  • Make Ahead. You can make the base a day ahead, and just pop it into your smoker the day-of to make things super simple.
