Men's Dip

4.3
(6)

This is a hearty hot, spicy dip that is delicious with corn chips. Tastes much different than you would imagine from the ingredients. Others who I have given this recipe to always want to leave out one ingredient or another. I don't recommend doing this, at least not the first time you make it, as I feel every single one of the ingredients adds something to the flavor.

  1. Crumble the ground beef into a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring to crumble, until starting to brown.
