Kims Kentucky Beer Cheese Recipes

KENTUCKY BEER CHEESE

Steps:

• Open beer and bring to room temperature It is desirable to get most of the gas out of the beer, but don't let it get stale. You can heat it in the microwave a bit if you are in a hurry, but don't boil it.
• Grate cheese and garlic in a food processor.
• Switch to the mixing blade and add remaining ingredients, mixing until thoroughly blended.
• Refridgerate overnight. This really helps the flavors develop and meld properly.

• Process until smooth and creamy, pulsing a few times, scraping the sides, and blending for about 2 total minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. If adding more seasoning, pulse a few times to mix.
