Lone Star Beer Cheese Dip – in a bread bowl!
A beer cheese dip that stays impossibly gooey for perfect dipping satisfaction every time. All thanks to one special ingredient.
If you’re a frequent peruser of this website, you’ll know it’s all about the meat. Meat recipes, meat articles, meat photography and even pretty rad meat merchandise. But even the most fervent carnivores can still appreciate a great dessert.
America is dotted with famous pie cafes, usually along old highways served by waitresses who measure their tenure in decades, rather than months. What I’m going to say next is controversial, but true: sadly, many of these pie havens aren’t worthy of their legendary status. It’s not uncommon to find their once famous recipes replaced with easier/cheaper mass food service ingredients, or perhaps they just weren’t all that impressive to start with. Just because the meringue is piled high doesn’t mean the overly-eggy flavor is pleasant.
Putting aside the negativity, my point here is that when you stumble across one of these pie havens that IS serving incredible pies, it’s a mandatory stop. Oxbow pies in Palestine, TX (pronounced pah-le-steen) is one such place. While neither old nor legendary, Oxbow serves up quality pies and little else. No cafe menu to content with, no blue plate lunch specials. Just superb pie. In fact, the best buttermilk pie I have ever had in my life.
Luckily for us (perhaps unluckily for our waistlines), the lovely folks at Oxbow have shared this recipe, and I wholeheartedly encourage you to try it. Particularly if you’re not going to be in Palestine anytime soon.

Delicate medallions of petite tender are cooked to a perfect medium rare, and complimented with lashings of creamy roasted garlic aioli.
These cheesy squash bowls are a great self-contained side dish. A generous amount of cream and gooey melted cheese makes them extra luscious.
