Expert Tips

  • Tip 1
    Bulk sausage is the raw meat that hasn’t been stuffed into the casing. If you can’t find it, you can buy raw sausages, slit the casing with a knife and remove the meat.
  • Tip 2
    If you want a little more heat, increase the chipotle chili in adobo to 2 tablespoons.
  • Tip 3
    This dip doubles as a great filling for quesadillas or tacos.
