Little smokies are already a party favorite. Here they go in the slow cooker with a jar of cheese sauce, a splash of beer and some spicy mustard. The sauce turns smooth and tangy, and you can keep it on warm all afternoon. Set out toothpicks and a stack of pretzels for dipping.

Tips

  • Any mild beer works. Use chicken broth instead if you’d rather skip the beer.
  • Stir once or twice while it heats so the cheese doesn’t stick at the edges.
  • Keep it on WARM once it’s hot for serving.

Storing

Refrigerate leftovers within 2 hours for up to 3 days. Reheat gently, stirring, until hot.
