Made the Buffalo chicken dip for my nearly 80 year old dad and he said: “The dip you made is tasty. It has a restaurant quality.” Thanks for the recipe, Bri!
thats so wholesome dude
Wholesome but how old are you tho
That's awesome
When did he die
@@GoldenBred why are you assuming he died? people have lived way longer
EDIT: In the recipe for the Spinach Artichoke and Buffalo Chicken Dips, I use 225g or 1 PACK of cream cheese (8oz), NOT 1 POUND of cream cheese. When in doubt, always default to my measurements in grams since that's what I use to develop the recipes. Everything else is generally a conversion (hopefully a correct one...usually).
i was gonna comment on that. i thought i was losing my mind when you said 1 lb and added only one block of cream cheese. but then you said 1 lb or 225 grams. a pound is 454 grams. good to see you're human. regardless, those all look damn good!
@@markevans9188 I actually just doubted myself and was like "well, apparently those packages are a pound". Glad I checked the comments. 😅
Plot twist: use one pound of you really like cream cheese.
Funny i was thinking i have never seen a 1 lb package of phili cheese, i wondered where did be find that😉
Just start only using metric only, we need to stop using imperial.
This episode is brought to you by Lactaid
not a joke 😂
@@BrianLagerstrom the R&D for this episode would've been beautifully uncomfortable 😂
🤭🤣🙃😂!!!
At the risk of sounding like an advertisement--I drank this probiotic juice called Goodbelly and I swear it fixed my lactose intolerance overnight. I went from not being able to eat stuff like ice cream without excruciating pain, to being able to eat any and all types of dairy. Which is good, because life without cheese is super lame.
@@lagoya i appreciate you mentioning this. I may have to look into that as being half French and Lactose intolerant has been a trial
Tried out the spinach and artichoke dip last night, and it’s next level. I had a recipe I’ve used for years and was hesitant to leave behind, but it’s not even in my mind anymore. I was hesitant about the pepper jack in there, but it was perfect!
I have a recipe thats different as well but i do use pepper jack. The mayo and the sour cream is what concerned me
IMO pepper Jack is a criminally underrated cheese dip base component. Never tried it in a spinach/artichoke dips but it doesn’t surprise me that it’s good.
"Which team are you rooting for?"
"Cheese dip."
"Sir, this is a Super Bowl Party."
"CHEESE. DIP."
you get it
The only team I care about for sure.
Bless you for the cornstarch technique! I've never been happy with a roux-thickened cheese sauce, and I will definitely try this.
Did you try it? I have doubts that the cornstarch will stop it from splitting. Especially if you refrigerate leftovers.
Try sodium citrate. It is used to emulsify American cheese, and is available on the Internet. An alternative is to include a small amount of American cheese in the sauce, most brands contain an excess of the emulsifying agent.
xantham gum also works great, I use it for ranch
it's funny that you say to add the corn starch because I've heard several times that the store bought pre-shredded cheese is bad (especially mozz for pizza) because the cellulose they put on it to keep from sticking together makes it harder to melt and flow, and it seems like corn starch would do the same thing....
@@TimothyReeves that's what I was thinking as well. I'm ganna have to try it and find out
Wow, from an American living abroad it’s nice to have recipes for our classic nuclear orange cheese dips. I think I can replicate this with available ingredients here. Plus, I feel a bit better eating these when I know what’s in them. Thank you!
If you're really looking for American cheese dip you can always do ye olde can of rotel and velveeta for the basic bitch whitebois queso
you are a really good teacher. I like the fast paced instructions and early prep work. recipes are very doable by home cook to produce professional results. glad I subscribed.
Absolutely amazing! I'll be making all 3, really happy you simplified the spinach and artichoke; furthermore, I've never had a good buffalo chicken dip in my life, so I'm super eager to try that one specifically, can't thank you enough (and much praise to production, the way the buffalo chicken fell off the chip was extra luscious and luxurious looking, keep it up.)
Thanks Bruno let me know what you think after you make!
i love using fresh ingredients too! the alternatives are a nice touch in a pinch!
Made the Buffalo Chicken and Spinach and Artichoke dips for a super bowl party. Both dips were very good, got compliments on both and the Buffalo Chicken dip was the first of 3 dips at the party to be finished off! Thanks for the recipes in the comments, I really like having both volume and weight measurements.
What was your mystery 3rd dip that took last place?
@@jsizzle7311 something someone else made, it wasn’t memorable for sure as I can no longer recall what it was, haha.
How about ehat they were dipped with. Just tortilla chips for everything or is there a better option for Buffalo chicken dip? Thinking about making some soon and was wondering if the Ritz Crackers or the thin ones are better
@@jsizzle7311 I was going to toast some Naan bread, tortilla chips and Naan bread, maybe celery or carrots too though.
Propane or butane torch works awesome for charring peppers for electric stove-havers like me, and it's super quick. I do it every single time I use peppers in a chili or soup, because it avoids the horrible little curls of pepper skin that fall off diced peppers and wander around in the broth. I typically run them under cold-ish water to get the skin off, which only takes a couple seconds, then I can dice. They're damp-ish after that, so they can go in a pan after meat and help loosen up some fond with their extra water.
Tried the chile con queso last night and it was a massive hit! I was using the roux method before; this is way easier and tastier. Thank you so much 🙏
Killer dips, Brian. You've taken the mundane and made them look really good. I usually pass on the dips, but I won't pass on these. Thanks for the great content - as usual.
Queso dip looks like a real winner. Have to make up some for the weekend smoke-sesh. Thanks Bri for the recipe!
I'm really enjoying your channel! Just the right amount of humor, personality, and kitchen science. And delicious recipes! A major enchiladas the other day oh my gosh they were so good!
OMG Brian!! I made the spinach dip for a party and it was off the hook! Everyone and their mothers loved it. Even those that hate spinach dip. I didn’t tell anyone what the dips were and it was gone. Everyone kept asking for the recipe and I said nothing. It is now my turn to be the star of the party honey! And no one shall take my crown… at least for a little while. 😂
Thank you for sharing your recipe with us Brian. I always love your cooking. I’ve tried so many of them and they always turn out so delicious. And I like the way you give simple instructions. You’re simply the best! Thanks ❤️
Love hearing that! Thanks!
Just now seeing this channel and I’m a fan. No gimmicks and very practical recipes. Bravo
i really enjoy that you give both measurements and not just one or the other
Brian, thank you so much for sharing these things! I would also like to acknowledge the production of video and audio. Nice work!
Thanks so much! A lot of work goes into these babies!
I've tried the spinach artichoke dip three times, and it's always a success with my family!
Really nice selection of hot cheese dips! I'm going to start with the chicken and then move on to the spinach artichoke. But I'm definitely making all 3. Thanks Brian!
I just made your Buffalo chicken dip, and I am so grateful. It is totally worth it. I played around with the cheeses and their ratios but its an adaptable recipe and I really love it. Thank you
Thank you for trying it lm glad you liked it.
Made the spinach and artichoke dip for our New Year's Eve snack fest. It was delicious. I've used many of your recipes, and all of them have worked.
great idea for Winter!
Super excited about my Butcher Box membership and trying ALL THE DIPS! Thanks, Brian!
Thanks very much for watching
Yes yes yes! I’m so excited to make these for our Super Bowl partayyy let’s go!!!!!!! Thank you for the great recipe 👍
fun fact, if you throw in a slice of American Cheese, or a small chunk of Velveeta, it'll also help to keep the cheese sauce from getting grainy.
Brian, they all look amazing, particularly the buffalo chicken dip, the spinach artichoke, and the chili con queso.
Glad you mentioned roasted red peppers. I always add those to my spinach artichoke dip.
I’m making all 3 today for my Super Bowl party, I’m so excited to try these out!
I made the spinach artichoke dip - it was A HIT. Thanks, Brian and Lorn!
Yum! I am so elevating my current dip recipes!! Thanks for the great tips!! 😉
Chipotle in the buffalo chicken dip is a great idea. I have an opened can sitting in my fridge from yesterdays Championship salsa. Definitely will check it out. Love a good buffalo chicken dip.
I plan to make all of them. Good job, and have a Merry Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄🙏
It was definitely a trip having made the chili con queso recipe for a long time now and then starting a bartending job and having the bar make it the same exact way. That's how you know this stuff is restaurant quality. Good stuff, Brian.
Can't wait to try the Buffalo Chicken dip. Looks fab. Thanks again Bri!
My mouth is watering. Definitely going to make the bufchickdip in my cast iron! So excited
These 3 dipped look awesome, thank you Brian!
Thanks Reb!
I love that you explain the “whys”! That’s what makes things stick for me.
OMG you really elevated these dips! I don't know which one to try first!
Oh, I will make all three of these. Not much for sports, but I'm all for the hot dips! Amazing as always.
Yum, they all look amazing
HELL YAH!! I'm off to the store! BCC Dip is in my future this week!
Bri - Love your channel!! 👍✌️ Plus it's so cute when your witty wife gets in the shot!! Merry Christmas.
I've only discovered your channel in the last 15 minutes, and it's already like you've crawled inside my brain to satisfy all my cravings. My attempts at queso have been awful, and I just don't want to use processed "cheese like food", so Thank you!
Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you .
Awesome! I really like your channel and your recipes! Good job! Greetings from Brazil!!
I’ve thought a lot of vids were my favorite but nothing will ever compare to making the perf homemade queso. ❤️🧀❤️
I just made the buffalo chicken dip and im in love with it. its SO good. thank you
I just love whenever Lorn makes an appearance
Great video. I will definitely find occasions to experiment with your recipes.
Oh heaven on earth home made cheese sauce that doesn’t get separated and funky. ❤
It's so nice! I really like it! I will definitely try all three. Thanks 😊
Out of all the ingredients i was waiting for you to sneak... gotta say didn't expect the hot sauce. Great vid
Thanks
Dude you're an inspiration and real pro. Thank you!!
YES sir! Frank's is the ONLY choice for buffalo chicken. Good man for sticking to the tradition there.
Absolutely! You can make generic chicken wing dip with other sauces, but if you really want to be able to call it Buffalo Chicken Wing Dip then you have to use Frank's (I do question the chipotle, but am trying to ignore it so he can have his own unique take...)
Love your vids! So useful and yummy!!! Thanks!
Super Bowl tonight! Might have to make all three!
Definitely gonna be making that spinach artichoke dip, that looks amazing
Brian, I just finished spinning the spinach artichoke dip and dear god man. Mindblowing. You’re a cooking freak of nature
Ugh! THANK you for reminding me of the amazingness of chipotles in adobo as I’m crafting a go-to buffalo chicken dip!
Wow they all look very tasty!! 😋
I love the way you mentioned that no one watched your original video on Artichoke dip, it's so fourth wall and I loved it haha.
Loved these recipes 😊!!
My fiancé and I made the queso and the buffalo chicken and they were great! The fire roasted poblano pepper is a game changer! Thanks so much for hard work with each video!
It’s that time of year again ❤
Omg this looks so I’m fr going to make this when I get home today I love how the ingredients are so simple but the out come looks so delicious 😁 spinach artichoke is my fav
Spin dip is 🙏🙏🙏
So good*
Killer vid and recipes, Bri! Thanks so much and please keep up the great work! The gluten-free options are awesome!
Love your vids!
this might be my first youtube comment ever? after 10+ years of youtubeness, but man...i just gotta let you know that you kill it in terms of content. I'm usually cooking one or two of your recipes every week, and thats not including breads or snacks like this. keep up the good work!
Another nice dipping… thanks for sharing
Those look great! The idea of adding the chipotles to the Buffalo dip is a great idea! I prefer to chop my artichokes and fold them in as I prefer larger chunks. I can’t wait to try them!
I did the chop and fold in my first vid. I love that as well. Cheers and thanks for watching
4:14 absolutely epic camera work
Great timing Bri! I'll be making the Chili Con Queso and the Spinach and Artichoke Dips. Thanks!
I hope you do cheers
@@BrianLagerstrom Thanks again. The Chili Con Queso was great and the Spinach Artichoke dip got rave reviews from those that like spinach and artichokes which I don't.
I"d love a good bean dip video!
PS = signed up for BB. Super excited!
OMG, these all look delicious!
Good description
Made the Buffalo dip, it is amazing. The girlfriend wanted to skip the chipotle, but we didn't and were both glad. It really rounds out the dish in an amazing way.
My wife and I love your videos and more important your “Culinary- Brianisms” keep up the great work.
These look amazing😋
That spinach dip so elite man holayyy. Can't stop eating
These look amazing. I'm trying one tonight.
Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you .
Thank you very much for all that you are doing, Brian! Me and my wife watch every video you made. Give us San Sebastian Cheesecake recipe please! We were in Istanbul half a year ago - it was something. We have no doubt that you will be perfect in it!
Thanks for watching! That one is on the long list, I’ll have to revisit soon
Retaining your crown as the sauce boss (including dips). Thoroughly enjoyed this one, gonna make them soon. BTW, I just had a Reuben (your recipe) with my own homemade sauerkraut for lunch. Was amaaaaaazing. That Russian dressing....
Woah. So glad you went for it. Nice work Brett
My personal favorite is spinach artichoke dip. I have never made it myself, but I hope to very soon.
thanks, Brian
I don't have gas stove, broiled the poblano instead. Worked great, Skin came off excellent. Gameday partygoers acknowledged the smoke pepper! Great recipe. I've tried several versions, this one best.
these look great... thanks
Can never go wrong with more of that peppy jack ☺ so good
Thank you for showing these cheese dips
🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻🤙🏻
Made the chile con queso dip last night. An absolute hit! Can't believe how easy it was. Thanks Bri! Looking forward to making the other two.
Spinach Artichoke dip is my husband’s favorite dip. Thanks!
Looks great! I especially like the instructions on how to use fresh spinach. For the chili con queso, I usually use about 3 - 4 poblanos, and a red pepper like jalepeno or fresno and use white cheeses like jack and kashkaval or manchego. So good! I love the channel!
Try with two mexican cheeses: asadero and oaxaca, excelent for melting. Tell us how it went...
@@carloszenteno for sure! I do that when I can, but asedero is rare to come across and oaxaca is something I’ve not seen at all, even in the Mexican markets we have here. I’m personally not a fan of chihuahua cheese that is commonly available, though it melts very well. It tastes milky, rather than cheesy to me.
I made the spinach artichoke dip, delicious
I need all of these right now
Bri absolutely killed it on this one.
I love the spinach and artichoke dip best
Buff chick and queso for our valentines super bowl party tonight! Cannot wait!
You're a man after my cheesy heart 🧀❤. These look soooo good!
