Slow Cooker Venison Queso Dip Recipe - Bowhunter (4)

Print Recipe

Serve your party guests what they really want – venison queso dip! This slow cooker recipe for venison queso dip is the ultimate appetizer for game day or any get-together. It's made with taco-seasoned ground venison and, wait for it ... REAL cheese!

For the creamiest dip, bring cheese to room temperature before adding to slow cooker. A sudden temperature change in the cheese can result in clumpy, greasy dip.

Make this venison queso dip as spicy as you'd like. Keep the seeds and pith in the chili peppers to turn up the heat.

  1. Secure lid on slow cooker and set temperature to low. Cook for 1 to 1 ½ hours, stirring every so often, until cheeses have melted.
  2. Stir in hot sauce to taste. I like my queso dip on the spicy side, so I add about ¼ cup Siracha.
  3. Serve venison queso dip warm, with a side of tortilla chips for dipping.

On the surface, it would seem almost impossible to keep improving the Double Bull ground blinds manufactured by Primos. But as Raised Hunting founder and television show host David Holder explained to OSG's Lynn Burkhead, this year's new Raised Hunting Double Bull blind raises the standard of ground blind excellence even higher, whether you're chasing elk, mule deer or pronghorn antelope out west in Montana or big record book whitetails living in the Midwestern whitetail paradise of Iowa.
