First Attempt at Linkie Marais's "Not Your Average Mexican Dip"

Monty77

My wife has become quite involved and interested in BGE cooking and lifestyle of late, so we have been attending more Eggfest together so she can try new things and learn as she goes.  In late July we attended the Pittsburgh Eggfest and we enjoyed some live demos from Linkie Marais.  This recipe and demo caught my wife's attention so we decided to give it a go today.  We tweaked the ingredients a bit to our tastes and overall we really enjoyed the flavours!  In the future I will dice the onion more finely and add some hot peppers.  Definitely worth a try and it feeds a big group.

That looks awesome!

i was checking out at earlier post of yours: is that a challenger cart? I need something to hold a large egg and I like the idea of having a place for a minimax if one should appear in my Christmas stocking.

@blind99 I have the large BGE island for my Large Egg, I enjoy the MM as my side burner and my XL sits in its nest around the corner for large cooks!  I love the island, very well made, and lots of storage.  These are pricy but I really like mine.

Did you use hamburger meat instead of the chorizo? While looking at your pics, I thought damn that would be good with chorizo and then looked at the link and that's what she used. Bookmarked.

Yes, we had lots of ground beef on hand, so we decided to use that up.  Either would be delicious.

That's some good looking stuff.nice photos! Also a good idea for a paella pan that gets very little use. I will be doing this.
