Prep Time: 20 Minutes
Cook Time: 35 Minutes
Serving Size: Brian and Dan
Cheese Blend:
2 tablespoon butter
2 tablespoon flour
1 cup milk
2 oz Velveeta
2 oz Monterey Jack
2 oz Colby
2 oz Sharp white cheddar
Ingredients:
6 potatoes (round as possible)
6 slices bacon
Beer Batter:
1 cup flour
1 teaspoon salt

1/2 bottle beer
oil for deep frying
Ancho chili sour cream:
1/2 cup sour cream
1-2 tablespoons ancho chili powder
Instructions:
1. Cook bacon
2. Par boil potatoes: Cover with room temperature
water and bring to a light boil. Boil 10-15 minutes,
depending on size. Done when easily pierced with
a toothpick. Take off the heat and immerse in cool
water.
3. Make cheese mixture: In small saucepan, melt
butter. Mix in flour. Gradually whisk in milk (it must
be warm to avoid lumps) and bring to boil. Lower
heat. If you have time, let it cook on low (while stir
ring regularly) for about 15 minutes; this will get rid
of the flour taste. Add cheeses and stir constantly
until melted. Let cool, stirring occasionally.
4. Inject cheese: Use a decorating bag with the
smallest nozzle you can find for this. Fill bag with
cooled cheese, jam nozzle into potato, wiggle it
around a bit, squeeze.
5. First Fry: Preheat oil to 375 degrees. Fry potatoes
in small batches until golden brown, about 2 min
utes. Place on rack to cool.
6. Second Fry: Mix ingredients for batter. Dip pota
toes in batter and fry again until golden brown.
7. Blend chili powder and sour cream. Serve on side
with bacon.
