Popeye Wants Da Dip: Dub Shack BBQ Presents Grilled Spinach Dip

I took last week off because I was tired and failed to prep. With a conversation my wife and I had the other night, I chose to rectify that part with grilled spinach dip.

INGREDIENTS

(2) 12 oz packages of frozen spinach

1 stick of butter

2 cups of Italian-style shredded cheese

(2) 8 oz blocks of softened cream cheese 

16 oz sour cream

1 tsp minced garlic

8 oz roasted bell peppers

Fire and Smoke Society's The Usual BBQ rub

1 package of onion dip seasoning mix

Eat spinach, flex the gun show like Popeye. #DubShackBBQ🏚️ #everydayisaGREATdayforbbq #pitmasterlife #igotthesauces #TailgatingForEveryone #spinachdip #DaDip pic.twitter.com/L8EJZXUgEB

STEP ONE. I kind of cheated a bit and I somewhat encourage it in this case, but hear me out. Melt the butter into into a skillet and add both packages of frozen spinach for five minutes or until it reduces down. Add the minced garlic and roasted bell peppers and stir until everything this nicely incorporated.

STEP TWO. Remember the softened cream cheese? Add and the sour cream to a mixing pan such as any cast iron skillet or an aluminum pan. Pour in the spinach mixture plus the onion dip seasoning and The Usual barbecue rub and mix the entire gang to a consistency.

STEP THREE. Get your grill lit to 325 degrees and set it directly above the charcoals. As it cooks down, don't forget to stir periodically to satisfaction - or in my case, creamy enough to give Applebee's a run for their money if not beat it down at its own game. Make sure all of the cream cheese is melted thoroughly before pulling it from the grill and let it rest for fifteen minutes before enjoying. Serve with chips, pita baguettes, or whatever you have that can stand up to your dip. 

I realized I had my Weber kettle for one year with this cook

All I can say is ooh, wee!

Find a bag of chips and a game to watch, and enjoy the heck out of your bowl! Thank you for reading this post; as always, be blessed, be safe, be careful, be good to each other, and tell everyone that every day is a GREAT day for Dub Shack BBQ!
