- Once you start dipping, you can’t stop. So, don’t stop. It’s a party, Or, at least I hope it’s a party, and not you skipping work, sitting alone in a seedy hotel room, eating an entire bowl all by yourself. Either way, I really hope you give this a try soon. Enjoy!

As amazing as this recipe is, there is no baked cowboy in it. My faith is shaken.
You didn’t see how the sausages were made then.
Didn't have enough weed to bake the cow boy.
My stepmother-in-law always made this at Thanksgiving & Superbowl times, but she cooked and retained it in a crock pot (which I recommend). It was always talked about & raved over every time..ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS!😋
I'm so glad you said it would work in a crockpot! I was wondering.
When I read your comment I was like wow it’s so cool to have step mother in law , then I realised I also have step mother in law 😂😂

Chef John for what it’s worth, both my parents passed within the last 2 years, but I find an immense amount of comfort watching your videos, the dad jokes are folded under a great guide to make phenomenal food, cheers my friend!
This is a dangerous recipe for me... I’m a widowed empty nester and l think l would wind up eating the entire bowl in one sitting! It looks absolutely delicious! Thank you Chef John! ♥️👍🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Dangerous indeed! I would eat the whole thing and I'm lactose intolerant to a large degree!! I love dairy but it doesnt love me...
@@id10t98
I’m sorry to hear that, I love dairy products. My daughter-in-law suffers from being Lactose Intolerant... She uses an OTC product called, “Lactaid”, it a Enzyme pill that helps her digest. You take one pill with your first bite of food “Dairy” food. She swears by it. Take care and good luck. 😊
@@janedoe805 tyvm and glty!
@@id10t98 I'm allergic. There are vegan alternatives to all the milk products in this. I will admit that the cheddar alternatives aren't as good as the rest, so I'd use the "Mexican mix" alternative instead.
There is one brand I can't stand, but it's everywhere so maybe it's just me.
@@shheih285 Trust me, I eat it anyway and suffer the consequences lol same goes with cheesecake! small pieces and small bites!
So let's get cracking... 😂 You never disappoint, Chef John!
I grew up with Cowboy Cookies, which were cookies with basically all the cookie fixin’s in them- walnuts, peanuts, macadamia nuts, chocolate chips, white chocolate chips,coconut, m&ms, raisins, dried cranberries, etc. I’ve always presumed the cowboy in recipe names were just another way of saying stone soup, everything but the kitchen sink, whatever’s in the fridge, etc. I think I like your explanation better.
"Cowboy Cookies"... made with trail mix .
Unreal - Approx evey 5 mins someone came up to me and said this is awesome. Took it to Super Bowl party. Never have I had such a reaction.
I watch all of Chef John’s videos. But I have to admit I get more excited about them around Thanksgiving and around the Super Bowl! Always great party food a Super Bowl time!
I might not make everything Chef John presents, but I am watching all his videos because it's a great, motivating cooking course. I'm up to about three hundred and fifty videos. Long way to go yet.
The challenge is which recipes do we want to make??
🤣
hmmm not cowboy sweaty crack dip... not too appetising
I like his videos round the outside, round the outside, round the outside
Everything Onion Dip, and now the Baked Cowboy Dip will be staples at the parties!
I made the everything onion dip and it’s AMAZING ✨
oh man, the everything onion dip is unbelievably good!! My family smashed 3lbs of that in 2 hours last time I made it!
Now I gotta go look up this dang onion dip 🙄 just when I thought I might try not being fat 🤷🏾♀️oh well😂💃🏽
every single time i see a dip recipe from chef john, im constantly reminded to get myself a freaking kitchen blowtorch. god i love the top bubbly caramely layer so much, id just toss some extra shredded cheese and blowtorch the top just to relive it layer after layer again
Perfect... I have a small event tonight and needed something to serve as a light appetizer.....I have all the ingredients on hand and don't have to go to the store !! Thank you!
WE JUST MADE THIS
And OMG
We did use chicken tenders instead of sausage. Just did garlic, onion powder, chili powder, cayenne and some red pepper flakes. S&P. Baked those.
Then for the cream cheese-
Due to the cream cheese shortage I was only able to get 1 block of regular and 1 container of the jalapeño cream cheese. SO good. The rest we did the same. My 3 jalapeños were pretty mild.
So much flavor in this we absolutely love it!!! Thanks Chef!!! 😍
A good way to soften the cream cheese if you forgot to leave it out to become room temperature is to take it out of the package & put it in a microwaveable safe bowl then microwave it for like 10 seconds & then mix it. If it’s still too hard after that, add a couple more seconds but don’t over do it cause it can melt (quickly) if you’re not careful 😊
I always keep it sealed and place in a bowl with luke warm water, change the water out if needed, but usually soft by the time the other ingredients are prepped.
"Let's get crackin"..." Chef John, you are genius and a wordsmith!
I want to say that I am so great full in finding your channel, I have become a better chef my self with your techniques so thank you chef Jon now my family and friends call me chef Jeff. Thanks again sir!
I read that as in you are a great big full bellied person 😅 lol I'm teasing
My family insists on calling me a chef, and it's all thanks to Chef John.
@@dylantyt6654 no I am only 175 lbs at 5’ 11” but if I wasn’t so busy with my homestead and construction company I think I could be lol
grateful and myself
@@michaelkelly3221 I’m not as dumb as it looks that’s voice recognition busy person
"I wish I knew how to quit you" 🤣🤣🤣 I said that to the boursin and Triscuts last night.
I'm thinking Mexican chorizo would be a great substitute for the Italian sausage.
Yeeessssss!!!
🤤 Great suggestion 👌
I’ve used chorizo before and it’s great, but the varieties available near me were a lot fattier than these sausages so I had to drain off quite a bit of grease.
@Wimpleton Duck Grew up eating it, so it doesn't mess with me 😅
@Wimpleton Duck just you.
Thanks for everything, especially your honesty. "...which I always, every time, forget to do" is now my absolute favorite quote from all cooking videos I have ever watched (followed closely by Chef Jean-Pierre's "look look, a child could do this" and your "as always, enjoy." Cheers!
Onyo!
What's the inappropriate name for it he didn't mention? I'm not a native English speaker and don't know these recipes.
@@EbonyPope Crack. As in... with all the spices and peppers... the next morning things will be "exciting" in the toilet.
everything about this was perfect, the recipe, the presentation, the puns, innuendos and random song / movie quotes... definitely adding this to my recipe book Chef John, thank you!!!!
It wasn't a random song quote, it was eminem who will be in the halftime show this year. Chef John's wit knows no bounds.
Bring the tums!!
@@TaoistAndroid “two trailer park girls go round the outside, round the outside, round the outside”
@@calico9046 LOL. And my favorite:"I wish I knew how to quit you." - Brokeback Mountain.
@@PlayaP69 which brilliantly brought us back to his cowboy pondering. I laughed out loud
This one had one spot that was (if you know Chef John) absolutely over the top. And I have to say, that doesn't come around too often. Chef John, your humor is spot on. And your cooking is spot on.
I made this for Super Bowl Sunday. I was delicious and a huge hit at our Super Bowl party! I had about half left over so I brought it into work the next day and it was gone by the end of the day! Great recipe, easy to make and a real crowd pleaser. Thanks for sharing Chef John.
Took a chance and made this tonight. Friends loved it and went back for multiple helpings. I toned the spice level down by skipping the chilies and using 1/4 jalapeño. it was delicious!
I made that last night, hands down THE BEST HOT DIP EVER!!! made crostini to go with it, it was absolutely amazing
I love you Chef John. Been following you for years. I was born on Christmas Day 1965 in Clifton Springs New York. We have a connection, as your beautiful mother, God rest her soul, lived there as well. Your recipes are amazing and are my go to recipes always. God bless you and your family and a very Merry Christmas to you and yours. 🎄🙏🏻❤️
I tried a version of this without the corn and the cheddar when I lived in Texas, and as I made it over the years I ended up adding grated cheese and scallions. Never knew the name of the recipe though.
Who knew I'd see it here!
I made this for the Superbowl and my husband was a huge fan. Thank you for the easy-to-make and very yummy addition to our table.
Anyone else sub to Cowboy Kent Rollins? He's the real deal... 👍
P.S. My profuse apologies to Chef John for not stating how much we all appreciate his expertise, as well.
Love you, Chef John, from a big fan somewhere near Seattle.
⚘🙏❤🙏⚘
Love cowboy Kent Rollins❤
Bro I'ma try it out it looks good 👍👍👍
Thank you Chef John! This recipe was amazing and so hearty and comfy for a movie night. Tried it with my boyfriend and it’s gonna be a repeat for more game nights. 💕
I thought it was baked in a cast iron skillet..that’s what I though cowboy dip was! Definitely going to make this! Thx for sharing ❤️
Chef John: " That looks like something you want to dip a chip into."
Yes, good sir, it definitely does 🤤
It looks kinda like something you want to go face first into! But chips are a suitable and neater delivery system and add desirable texture.
Chef John: " That' looks LIKE' something you want' to dip a Chip' INTO!" fixed it for you. he talks weird.
Made a version of this tonight and it got great reviews. I used four precooked cotija cheese/poblano pepper sausages, and added some extra seasoning. Thanks for the inspiration!
John true story. I've been adding TJ's cowboy caviar to cream cheese, cheddar cheese, and beef chorizo and heating through in my crock pot. It's a fan favorite round here and I get asked to make it all the time.
You leave me with a smile on my face. And I'm certain I'm not the only one. That is a gift, Chef John. Thank you.
I made this, and then proceeded to eat the whole thing. By myself. It was amazing
Made this for a potluck. Everyone LOVED it! Three people asked me for the recipe. Thanks chef john.
Chef John: This has another name that rhymes with "whack" that we're not going to use
Also Chef John: Let's get crackin'
"Cowboy" + "I wish I knew how to quit you" = subtle humor very well played, sir!
Italian flavor profile aside, this looks like a stellar country comfort recipe and I can't wait to give it a shot, albeit with a more appropriate sausage substitute (e.g. Jimmy Dean, etc.). Keep 'em coming, chef John!
I make this all the time. I recently added a drained can of Hormel chilli beans to it and it was A1
This may be the world’s most perfect food..... it’s got all the food groups- meat, dairy, veggies, grains (chips)..... and I bet it’s low carb if you just eat it with a spoon! 😊😊😊
Hello dear, how are you doing?
WOWZA! GOTTA TRY FOR THE SUPER BOWL!
This video made me feel so happy you really put the love in your videos and it shows with each wonderful dish you create for us thank you so much from one chef to another it's TRUE culinary art!!!! Kudos chef John
I just made this it was super easy. I was impressed with myself as I was watching this sayin ‘ I have sausage.’ ‘I have cream cheese.’ ‘I have corn!’ Oh crap YESSSS! And oh boy is it better baked.
Chef Eminem never gets old. Making this tonight.
You mean Malcolm McLaren. Eminem's reference was a tribute to this iconic early 80s track. th-cam.com/video/HCBN7lyLT4w/w-d-xo.html
All depends on how many trailer park girls there are.
I can't imagine eating it cold after seeing it hot. I'm not so sure about warm....I'll have to try it!
You know it’s time for Super Bowl when Chef John makes a dipp.
The question is, will he ever do another “chip” recipe?
I'm making this for this weekend and I'm skipping the meat, frying some salami, adding some low-salt navy beans, double the jalapenos, skipping the can chilies and adding cheddar and mozzarella. Can't wait!
Might need to make this for the Super Bowl! Looks great!
I make a smoked salmon ( we fish for salmon every year) dip a similar way, there are never any left overs. I will try it with sausage.
Any time I attend a potluck, I’ve been bringing CJ’s buffalo chicken dip, which is always the star attraction. I mean people go crazy for it. I’m tempted to make this next time but the buffalo dip is just so, so good.
I am a chef. Many of my coworkers turn to Chef John for inspiration and clear simple instructions on great dishes.
One of our xhefs has practically made a career out of John's "Fondant potatoes", a lovely dish.
This dip is incredible by the way.
Agreed. I make Chef John's Fondants weekly.
"round the outside, 'round the outside." LMFAO. Chef John kills me sometimes.
Everybody loves you, Chef John.
God bless you for beeing so nice.
This looks tasty! Making it tomorrow for a New Year's Eve party. Thanks for all the wonderful recipes!
I watch alllll of your videos because .. well I have anxiety problems and your videos calm me down. There really is no better gift than that lol
Definitely will try. Looks so tasty.
Sounds great! Good for card day, thanks
Gotta watch before taken down if truly addicting. Yum 😋
I could just eat this with a spoon... Thank you Chef John, your humor and fun is rockin as usual!
I wrapped my cream cheese up in my electric blanket for a while, my house is too cold to warm up at "room temperature." Upstate NY problems, amiright John?!?
I have a habit of putting something small, non-liquid, and frozen into a plastic bag and then into the inside pocket of the fleece jacket I wear over my sweater on days like this, huddling near a space heater. (Live several states south of you but in a poorly built, badly insulated, terribly drafty house that I can't afford to upgrade.) It's how I warm up things like breakfast rolls or, yes, cream cheese for recipes.
I made this for the superbowl and it was a "HUGE" hit. Everybody loved it. I opted to mix it the day prior and refrigerate. Pulled it out Sunday, baked it about an hour and a half before the game. I concur with Chef John that it's better after it's cooled a bit. Delicious regardless, but I liked it better not piping hot. BZ! A job well done Chef!
I would add, if you're not having a party, or just a small gathering, this is one recipe that halving might be a good idea. Just saying. 😉
That looks absolutely delicious! Can’t wait to try it.
I actually love how much spice u put in there. Amazing. Not for light hearted
Wonderful chef...👍👍
Im going to make this dish very soon👍👍😍
Every time that chip dipped into that dip, my envy grew... I am starting to hate/love/hate/love Chef John.
Looking forward to giving that a go! Sans the hot-stuff, and served on penne or macaroni, since it looks so rich and cream-cheesy!
I can't do the chillis or spicy stuff, the ol' reflux'd have ME all 'shake-a-shake-a'...!
Mmmmm..... served over pasta-- what a great idea!
didnt think of pasta but i imagined this would be a killer filling for something enchilada adjacent or those "taco lasagnes"
Heck, yeah, I love cowboy caviar and have some made up in the fridge most of the time. Not only is it great for dip, you can throw it on a tortilla with scrambled eggs and cheese for a breakfast burrito, or plop on top of hummus and eat with crudités for lunch. It’s the cold dip equivalent of this hot sausage dip (which traditionally is made with velveeta and Rotel - yep, velveeta 🧀)
WOW WOW WOW! I'm speechless! This looks so amazing 🤤🤤🤤 I want to swim in that dip it looks so delicious 😋 😍
I made this again, probably for the 20th time. This time I modified the recipe a little: here in Texas we have HEB Grocery Stores, and they have their own Corn Chips, a.k.a Fritos (they are twice as good & half the price). At the very end of the recipe, I took a cup of Ghost Pepper Ranch Corn Chips and put them in a plastic bag, then pounded with a meat hammer. I sprinkled them over the cheddar cheese just before putting the pan in the oven.....so good!
I think you’re right about the origin of the name. Corn, black beans and jalapeños are the staples in any “cowboy” recipe.
I repleaced the cremecheese with cottage cheese and ad fresh peppers to it , yummie, my kids loved it , thanks ❤
Your voice is what’s addictive. Between the chipper, soothing sound of your voice and the happy music, I could watch you all day.
Really? That’s what drove me crazy. Uuup then Down, Eeevry time. Felt like I was gunna be sea sick or something lol.
@@Michaelharringtondesign Uptalking!
@@Michaelharringtondesignagreed. I just had to mute this, can’t do that voice.
1 package maple sausage, 1 lb hamburger. Cooked together and until browned. 1 pk cream cheese, chives, salt pepper and 2 table spoons of maple syrup. Once cream cheese is melted and blended well add two cups of cheddar cheese and serve. Absolutely tasty and easy! I add bowls of fresh tomatoes, and pepper jack on table for those who want an extra bit of taste.
I would just add this comment, that I would recommend using yellow cheddar cheese for this dish. The flavor will be the same, but the white cheese ends up making a funky, unappetizing pink dip the color of raw chicken. Yellow cheese makes the whole thing look more like a queso dip which people invariably can't wait to eat.
For soem reason I was expecting beans.... the 'cowboy' I suppose. Still... I'm making this for that big football game coming up... Thanks Chef John. You never fail to entertain and create delish food!
You would be correct! Cowboy dip has the addition of Black eyed peas and I would opt for a Chorizo sausage vs Italian.
Thanks for warning us that it’s highly addictive, Chef John. 👌👍✌️
I've made almost the same dip but with leftover brisket I had made an pico de gallo mixed in. Yum
I dunno if it was said before, but the tone of Chef John's voice is a comfort place
Totally! So much so for me that he’s on my “People to Meet” bucket list!
I agree!
I have made similar dip and add a can of "Ranch beans". way better than without.
I love all your recipes and share many of them. I’ve even learned to use Cayenne - but I’m curious. Is there anything you don’t add the miracle pepper to?
Always enjoy your recipes I want to say that I'm glad I Finding your Channel.
If you whispered to your Baked Cowboy Dip, "I wish I knew how to quit you", you definitely had more than one adult beverage with your chips and dip.
I made this as shown except I used Beyond Meat Chorizo for the vegetarians. It was delicious and well-received.
I didn't know this even had a real name. It's always been "The Dip" in my house, except we layer it and bake instead of mixing it together. Half the time we change out the sausage for cooked taco seasoned chicken.
That sounds so good!
I haven't watched Chef John for a year...and yet the first one I did (this one) contained the iconic "around the outside, around the outside." 🤣☑️🤣 Excellent!!
Chef John has this amazing superpower of being the most friendly, calming and wholesome sounding person on the planet. He's like the Bob Ross of cooking.
This is also good if you substitute beans for corn, there are a few brands of seasoned beans, black beans or kidney (one is cuban, one is tex mex, one is chipotle..cant' remember the brand)
I made half with corn half with kidney beans, used chorizo. It was ok.
Awesome😊. (One add can be red beans and a bit of louisiana sauce. Hope it's ok to share the suggestion?.). We absolutely adore and appreciate your channel, Chef John. Thanking you for the fun and wonderful videos. 🥰😇🎶🕊️🙏👍
I think the beans too.
Did you just give a eminem reference? You never cease to amaze me Chef!❤
I could see this as a variation on Texas Caviar, which is a similar recipe. Might be interesting to add a can of well-drained black-eyed peas. Looks awesome!
In Az., it's Cowboy Caviar, and it would be black beans
@@drwgisblaidd I grew up in Texas but pops in Tucson AZ. I made this with black beans no corn
Just tried this and it will for sure be a new staple in my kitchen! Awesome. It makes a ton as well. This would make a really great filling for steamed dumplings, I'll try that next! Thanks, Chef.
Heated would be best, I am sure!
This will work out real good for my Mexican dinner appetizer!
Hey Chef! Would Beef Chorizo work in this recipe?
Why not? You're the Joe/Chloe of your Chorizo.
We'll go with Chloe and thanks!
Just made this again and used it to fill Steamed & Pan Fried Dumplings, oh my! Great job Chef.
Chef John, do you have any suggestions for vegetarian versions of this dish please?🙏
Soy chorizo would probably be an acceptable substitute for the sausage
I make the rotel and velveeta version, just leave out the meat. It’s good. 😊
Black beans instead of sausage!
@@cmoore6131 put them in a warm pan, the merest suggestion of olive oil, crush them a bit as you stir, add cumin and a sniff of white pepper
It's much more handsome baked. John you crack me up! I love hanging out in your kitchen!!
The 'rotel dip' I used to have seems more like a cross between the traditional and this. After the mention of Cowboy Caviar, I couldn't help but think this could use some black beans and red onion mixed in and some fresh sliced avocado on top.
This might be a great recipe for when a superb owl comes to visit.
I look forward to making this. Looks yummy!
