Sometimes this is called a “queso flameado” but queso flameado is usually lit on fire with a shot of tequila - we’re not doing that today. We’re making a simple choriqueso the way we used to experience it here in
South Texas on the border. Sometimes this is made with rajas, sometimes with mushrooms or other chile pepper and onion toppings, but today we’re keeping it simple.
A lot of my barbecue passion and experience came from my father and grandfather, but the choriqueso and cabrito experience came from my father in law - Frank Nieto!
Today we’re cooking over the fire on the ProPit RPG Grill but you can cook this on the stove top or in the oven, whatever works best for you. All you need for this recipe is two packages of Chorizo de San Manuel, our favorite chorizo, and two packs of queso oaxaca.
This recipe is so, so easy to make. All we have to do is cook the chorizo in the pan, add the grated cheese, and then pull yourself a big ol delicious choriqueso taco. You can top this with your favorite salsa, guacamole, or anything else you like. Let’s fire it up and cook some choriqueso!

this man is a national treasure
@@cloudnurdz6331 Yes he is.
More nations then one
I'm going to try this my brother! Cant wait ! 👍👏👏👏👏
He def got one of those personalities
I agree, wish i could hire mim as my personal chef!
Queso Oaxaca is a very underrated cheese. It's incredible on homemade pizza.
That's funny, I wanted to make pizza bread and all I found in the fridge was mexican cheese, I put some marinara sauce down on some bread and used the mexican cheese broken up with a fork until fluffy and topped it, in the toaster oven melted and crisped up great and tasted good, I was surprised ! Its funny you mentioned it, "One bite, everyone knows the rules" ! 🍕
Thanks Gay Rambo
@@Penland1234 think of the difference between cheddar and sharp cheddar.
@@Penland1234 Cotija is better on esquites.
@@davidatovar Everybody*
LEGEND. That mustache belongs in a museum.
When I think of Texas this is the type of fella who I think of as a real Texan. Hell of a cook with an awesome Mexican/South Western flair to cooking. Awesome video.
I thought a real Texan had room temp iq and dress like cowboys
You mean Mexican, because Texas was part of Mexico, let’s call it what it is
@@hisaffliction2138 *what is WAS
@@hisaffliction2138bro that was like 200 years ago its not that big of a deal lmao
As a Houstonian, 100 percent agree with this comment. This man screams Texas.
My only complaint about this is that 1) it isn't at my house and 2) your channel gets shown to me when I am famished 😂 . Nice job, brother. Those pequin peppers are incredible
That's two complaints you're goin to jail busta
I concur. Same complaints here.
LOL BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA 💯
My four year old watched this with me and she said
“ Dad, let’s have that for dinner tonight!”
I think she is on to something! Plus it will give me a reason to make some more salsa.
I’m thinking about it too
nom nom nom
@@nothanksplease brilliant response
Salsa is love
Salsa is life
All hail the glorious tomato 🍅

This is exactly what our favorite local Mexican restaurant serves with tortilla chips! It’s kind of buried in the menu, but my husband discovered it and we LOVE it! Sometimes we get takeout and just order 2 of these appetizers for our dinner. 😋 I had no idea it could be made so easily at home!
@@ChickenMcThiccken yeah, I do this at home, cut up a bunch of tortillas into triangles, fry them and then eat it up. Basically super awesome nachos
@@The_Gallowglass why eat the tortilla without frying it, right?
@@Diego_- frying makes everything better
Yeah right whitey
First thing I see on ur page is loose weight 😂😂 can’t tell
I’ve only seen 2 of this man’s videos and very quickly he has become my favorite chef I’ve seen on RUclips.
I’ve been making Korean corn cheese for my in-laws for years and it slowly evolved to incorporate queso Oaxaca and chorizo. They’re from Del Rio, so now I understand where that suggestion came from.😂
Del Rio, TX for the win! Big family from this town
Hello from Del Rio!!
Now I'm going to look for videos about Korean corn cheese.
Born and raised in Del Rio i remember the first time I tried this was at la posta in acuna it's delicious and growing up my mom made her own hot pepper sauce from the huge chili pequene bush in our back yard.❤
@@scottgalbraith7461 corn cheese is amazing. Anything drowning in cheese is amazing.
Today on Easter I was tasked to make a dish for my in-laws (all of their family) for the first time today on Easter. I am a pretty good home cook, but I felt tremendous pressure to make and deliver something delicious on a day that was really special for them. Not only we’re the regular family members from Washington going to be there,but family from California were flying in as well. To say that I had no idea what to make and that I wasn’t stressing it would be a lie. Then I came across this video yesterday morning and it inspired me to make a dish my Tio used to make for me when we would go and visit him in Monterrey: Queso Flameado! Wifey’s family is from Oaxaca so they had never had the dish before. I asked my mom a huge favor and she made some of her famous Tortillas de Harina and in conjunction with the Queso Flameado . It was a huge hit with everyone (with that said I would have to say it’s mostly because of her tortillas which are to die for.) My father in law was pretty drunk after we had ate and said that after trying the tortillas and QF I was now his new favorite in-law lol. Thank you for inspiring home cooks like us everywhere Arnie. Your generous sharing of knowledge, the confidence you give us with your wise words, and the obvious humility and kindness you come across with make us all better cooks and in turn people that bring our families together to make memories. Con mucho carino y amor Carnalazo..a un amigo a otro.
We have to make the most of the time we have with our family. Sounds like you are someone who understands that. God bless you
What is Tortillas de Harina?
@@freakoutsinpublic9296 flour tortillas.. made from scratch though..
This man reminds me of my father and that's why I love him.
I Grew up in Monterrey, Mexico. This was my favorite dish at the cabrito restaurants and I used to finished it all...by the time the cabrito got to the table I was already stuffed😄 Love your videos! Thank you.
Wait, there are dedicated cabrito restaurants in Mty???
The queso fundido with chorizo is one of the best foods ever!
what exactly is Fundido??????
@@libertybelllocks7476fundido means melted. In Mexico we call this dish queso fundido or melted cheese. It can be plain, with chorizo, mushrooms. Apparently in the US Mexican Americans call it choriqueso
@@gaetanodragonetti3942 Fundio
I made this years ago using the stove and oven to melt the cheese. I liked it but the chorizo is very oily. I thought I had made a mistake and not poured the oil off but realized that the recipe never said to do so. So I guess I made it correctly. I cut my corn tortillas into wedges, brushed them with a bit of oil and baked them to make chips. I'm glad that I found this video because I had been getting the urge to make this again for some time.
@@Zaxbox I buy beef chorizo because it is usually less oily than pork chorizo. I am going to try making this with the beef pretty soon.
The power a delicious and simple Mexican dish has in bringing people together and to the table is amazing.
I’ve never had a cooking tutorial make me smile so much ❤️
I second the statement that Arnie is a National Treasure!!!
This video took me back. I haven’t seen Chile Pequin in so long. My mom used to have a Chile pequin plant outside and make fresh salsa using them. That’s where I developed my love of spicy food. Thanks for the nostalgia!
Piquin bud piquin...
The best
My mom is from Linares NL
And she only uses puiquin or del Monte
Wild Chile puiquin there's a season where you go to the mountains and pick it the make in escabeche and in salsas or just Chile whit some eggs the best 👌
@@BRAVITS Chile Pequin. Chile Pequin. The elongated version of Chiltepin.
@@reekkoh that is ALOT of Chili Pequin, damn...I have 4 plants, 2 are several years old in pots so over-winter them, they are small trees, still producing loads of peppers...in Texas
@@boostismagic shii, started growing mine as seedlings back in march and they starting to grow quick asff. I'm in Oklahoma so finna be weird growing em out here (from south Texas and the grow like weeds out there ) but already got a whole ass plan to have hopefully a couple decent shrubs here in the next few months 🤣
I made this tonight for my three adult stepchildren, being the first time I've seen all of them together for the first time in 15 years. They loved it! I did add a shot of tequila to the chorizo, but I didn't trust myself enough to light it on fire, as this was my first time making it. This was a simple, delicious dish to make. Thank you for this!
Wait I think the point of lighting it on fire is to burn off the alcohol
@austindavis2406 the alcohol is still evaporating without the fire (alcohol evaporates around 78C, well below water). The flames just look cool and can be used as an indicator for how much is left but is completely unnecessary
I'm Yankee from OH, but you have to love Arnie. He's so happy and friendly PLUS he makes you feel like you can make anything he can. Ha!
Made a cheap version at home with chorizo sausage that I blended with jack cheese, rotel diced tomatoes, and evaporated milk. Jesus it’s so good I had to stop myself at 3 tacos the chorizo juice alone is amazing Thank you for this video.
We’re super blessed to have you show us how to make this amazing food.
Thank you!
Been lookin for this Recipe since I moved outta Santa Barbara in the 70's. Our Neighbors used to throw some Killer Pinatas Birthday parties and bring Choriqueso Taco's and homemade Tamales by from time to time because they were Awesum Neighbors. Saving this Recipe ! Can't wait to try it ! 👍
Brother!!! I made this for my kids and they LOVED it!!! Thanks for all you do and for sharing your passion!!!! God Bless!
i love men
You always put so much love into your food,Amazing!!¡!
I absolutely love queso flameado. I work at a very large bar in Texas that has a rotation of food trucks, one of them makes queso flameado. every time I'm in the break room people are wondering what I'm eating, and it wins them over every single time. Top notch dish!
My favorite thing about chorizo is that seasoning is basically optional. It already tastes so good without anything. Definitely makes for a tasty easy dinner. I will definitely be trying this recipe tonight with some store bought salsa
Omg that looks magical!!! Thanks for sharing. I know what I'm making this weekend.
Awesome craftsmanship and love in your cooking 💯
Arnie this is first video I’ve seen of yours. Looks delicious, and very simple to make. I’m not subscribing because of the dish, but because of you and how awesome you are on camera. You made a simple little tutorial very entertaining and made my stomach grumble out of hunger. I look forward to watching the rest of your videos!
I'm glad I'm not the only one that had that same feeling! This guy is a natural presenter/entertainer. By the end of the video I was thinking to myself "damn, I wish I could just sit in his backyard with him and have a couple beers and tacos and just talk about life". I said it in my first comment on the video but he is like the hispanic Sean Connery, super charismatic, great voice, killer facial hair lol.
Finally had authentic choriqueso for the first time yesterday. Simply amazing.
i love it ....brings back so many childhood memories....thanks 😁
This looks absolutely amazing! I know this will be my favourite food once I try it.
Oh man! I'm making that this weekend, forget the Easter Ham! Looks like it would make some killer tacos! Along with some ice cold brewski's thanks Arnie, and Happy Easter 😊
Gracias, ArnieTex!! I made this for mi familia today and they loved it! Super simple food is needed sometimes🥰 I love your videos, you remind me of my tíos!! Much love from ATX 🫶
Thank you man, I'm cooking this tomorrow
I tried this. If you're a bit low on cash and need to extend this, a can or two of beans does a great job while keeping it really enjoyable. Love the video! God bless!
This looks amazing. Got to try it. Nothing like great Mexican food. 😋
Yes!
Wow! I’ve never seen or heard of this bro👍🏼thank you for showing us how to make it👍🏼
OH DEAR LORD!!!
🫠🥵🤤
That looks amazing!!
Growing up in Corpus Christi, there were a couple of restaurants that made this.
I literally had forgotten about it until I saw this vid. I made it the next day.
Awesome dish and really like your channel!
I live in Corpus Christi, and I also remember restaurants making this. I wish I could eat some, But I get really bad heartburn. I'd keel over 😂
Don't think I've ever watched something and had my mouth watering as much, I gotta search for the right ingredients over here in Sweden and surprise the family with this!
Wow, these videos really showed me a lot! Thank you.
I would defenitely replicate this myself to serve this to my family on lunch. Greetings from The Philippines, brother!
That looks absolutely scrumptious! I'm making that and having some roasted potatoes and crusty bread for dipping and scooping along with fresh corn/flour tortillas. Yum!
I barbecued a huge brisket this past weekend and everyone was Impressed. I used OG , Fat side up low n slow . SUPER GOOD STUFF!!
This looks amazing! Have to try this soon!
Gonna try it out bro, thanks! Keep those videos coming
This looks amazing! I’m definitely gonna give this one a try.
Outstanding , I'm going to town right now for choriza and cheese, you've overwhelmed me!
WOWZA! That looks YUMMY. I'm so gonna make this. Thank you for the inspiration.
Everything you make looks soooo delicious! 🤤 😋
This popped up randomly on my feed, started watching it and it sounded great and pretty simple to make. I glance over at the recommended and see Fajitas, Carne Asada Tacos, Pollo Asado Al Carbon. I don't think I've hit a subscribe button so fast before.
I didn't know there was a name for it but I've been making this for 30 plus years (since I was a kid) !
LOVE it !
Thank You foe sharing your Father in law recipe.
I will thank him personally after making this over the next year.
It’s looks so delicious. Cant wait to make. Thank you for sharing your recipes. Yummy. 😋😋
Growing up in Houston my family ordered this at restaurants all the time. It was always Queso flameado on the menu but I never saw flames or tequila 😂.
Looking forward to trying this and feeling like a kid again
I love how geninuely excited you seem it made the video nice to watch
I love these simple and quick meals.
This is so good! Been making it for my family once a week since I came across this video and we can’t get enough
Is it literally just chorizo sausage meat and cheese? I want to make it, it looks SO good!
@@raymondhenderson8230 yup, super easy to make!
Beautiful. Mexican food is for real The Best looking and tasting food on the planet! Muy Bueno!
That looks absolutely delicious! Gotta make this now.
I made this a while back and OH MY GOD!!!! It is absolutely amazing!!!
This is a good quick recipe I can cook in my truck! I'm definitely gonna try this recipe! And it's extremely difficult to mess up which is a bonus for me haha! I'm gonna check out more of your recipes for sure!!
I had some of the best cabrito in Matamoros back in the 80's. I don't think I've ever had better goat/sheep ever in any form. I love what Arnie cooks, look forward to more of his dishes.
My goodness, I can't wait to make this !!! 😍 looks bomb !!!
The story that comes with this wow! I told my partners younger cousin the other day how to make an "Italian pizza omelette" just the other day.. I'm glad you decided to share this with the world!
This looks delightful!!!! gotta try it sometime!
Wow, that looks amazing. I can’t wait to make it, especially the salsa.
I wish you were my dad growing up. You seem like a good guy. Thanks for teaching me how to cook this!
This is so nostalgic as I I am from South Texas, right near the border my mom and my my great grandma and my grandma and also my great grandpa and grandpa would always barbecue outside 🙂
Love it!!! Always do it just like this!!
That looks so good, my mouth got all watery... Time to go shoppin and try this out! Thanks for the inspiration, I needed that! 😀
This was our pizza back at the elementary school I went to in Las Vegas, it was amazing and to this day the only school lunch meal that I crave! Thank you so much for this recipe
Affordable! Thank you so much!
This looks fantastic! I cant wait to try this 🤤
Nice and drippy. Great recipe. Thanks sharing.
Man i absolutely love Mexican culture... Best food in the world for sure!
True on the amount of dishes only China and India come close
Not
@@mekajones7273can’t think of anything better than mole, underground cooked barbacoa or tacos Al pastor
Meh...Italian would put up a fight they could win.
@@mc.9839 not even close
I love your wholesome content, getting a charcoal grill soon and plan on trying a lot of your recipes. They are always simple and delicious.
It's so interesting. Thanks for sharing
Awesome dish never had it in my life. I'll stop by heb on my way home from work and pickup the ingredients. Thank you for the great idea 😊
Whats up bro, right on man, we are from the central valley in California "Northernios". Moved to San Antonio and never wanted to come back to Califa. Moved again to Georgia and it's great but bro I miss my homies and watching your videos is helpful.
I love this as a meal not just an appetizer. Tonight for my Fathers Day dinner the kids are making choriqueso tacos and fresh pico.
Hi just now found your channel. My mom was an EXCELLENT cook. She made the best homemade flour tortillas. Well, everything she made was soooo tasty. Thank you for your mexican cuisine cooking videos. Everthing looks so yummy!
That looks fabulous, of course talking about the mustache. The food looks divine.
Arnie´s whole demeanour is making me happy. Instant sub.
Have a great weekend all of you, I´m going to the supermarket right now!
Thank you brother. As a Gringo i love seeing chorizo recipes. I usually always just make it for breakfast burritos but this is getting made tomorrow.
That like means more than you know, love from NC.
Amazing!! Mouth watering!!
Looks amazing, nice job
