According to the videos of people attempting to make the savory dip, you line up your ingredients in an aluminum pan before placing it on the heated grill. Though the variety of additions for the dip vary, with some using beef, while others omit it and instead amp up the flavor with chorizo or keep it veggie, there is always one ingredient that cannot be omitted: cheese, and lots of it.

Regardless of the chosen ingredients, however, the method remains the same: On a grill, let the covered creation cook for about 15 minutes and then stir. After that, leave the dip in there until it’s completely melted – an exact time was not shared. Once it’s finished, TikTok claims you will be left with a cheesy, smoky dip fit for a party – a socially distanced one, that is.
