Instructions for Pumpkin Queso
- Cut the pumpkin's top off enough to be able to spoon out the inside seeds and fibers.
- Sprinkle about 5-6 shakes of Yucatán rub inside the cleaned pumpkin and pour in about a tablespoon or so of olive oil to lightly coat the interior.
- Close up your pumpkin and place on some tin foil 6-8 inches away form the prepared coals. It should be turned 180 degrees after 30 minutes of cooking.
- Over medium heat on a cast iron season the ground beef with the Texas Rub. Add the jalapeños when beef is browned and sauté
- Take the pumpkin off the coals. It should be tender enough to be easily stabbed with a fork. Open the top and add the cheese, the tomato, cream, and the ground beef mix. Stir mixture with a spoon craping the sides of the interior of the pumpkin. Set aside.
- Heat up the cooking oil in a skillet. While it is heating up, take the tortillas and cut with a long knife horizontally and then vertically in the middle to create triangles. Place the tortillas in the very hot oil and cook on both sides until browned. Place them all on paper.
- Take a chip and scoop out of some of the pumpkin mix and adjust seasoning as necessary.
