Velveeta cheese plus hot fresh salsa (the kind with chucks of diced tomato, onions, peppers, etc.)

Melt together in microwave (mix ratio to taste).

Dip chips in melted cheesy goodness.

Skirt steak tacos.

I rub olive oil, sea salt, and fresh ground black pepper on skirt steak and let that sit for about 30 minutes, then grill it on my Big Green Egg with Mesquite chunks.

To go with it, I make guacamole with just avocados, tomatoes, garlic, red onion, olive oil, lime juice, and salt and pepper.

The tacos are very simple...skirt steak, guac, cheese, and sour cream, with a splash of Cholula hot sauce.

Long Chile was a silly place.

Mix equal parts ketchup and yellow mustard (about 1/2 to a cup each). Put in 1/2 cup brown sugar and brandy. Add Worcestershire sauce (I put in a lot) and hot sauce (Crystal brand is best) to taste. Put in a hole package of cocktail wieners simmer til warm.

Take Crescent Roll dough and wrap cocktail wieners in them and bake. Serve with a dipping sauce.

Take a block of Velveeta and a package of port wine cheese spread (Merkt's if you can get it, and make sure it's the 8 oz one), can of condensed mushroom soup, chopped broccoli, few dashes of hot sauce, bake til hot. Serve with Doritos

Take almonds, insert into a date, wrap in bacon, bake, serve with bleu cheese dressing

Homemade pimento cheese (I'd have to look up that recipe)

Homemade cheese straws (ditto)

So what's your address again?

I'll be enjoying them at my friend's place on the peninsula. In CaptainCanada's hood.
