Beer and Cheddar Fondue

Now this is something that I really know something about. My family loves to "Fondue". We also do a cheese fondue . We have two fondue pots, one for cheese and one for hot oil.

The one with oil with cook chunks of top sirloin , and the one with cheese with dunk french bread, vegetables.

My son-in-law makes a outstanding cheese sauce . He uses 3 cheeses and wine and some herbs. I will have to get the recipe from him and post it.

We play cards (cribbage to be exact) and pig out on fondue. A good time for all,then we sit around and complain about how full we are.
