3. Mix Well: Stir until all ingredients are well combined, ensuring an even distribution of flavors.
4. Transfer to a Smoker-Safe Dish: Use a cast-iron skillet or a disposable aluminum pan for easy cleanup and transfer the mixture.
5. Smoke the Queso: Place the dish in the smoker, close the lid, and cook for 30-35 minutes, stirring occasionally.
6. Check Consistency: The queso should be melted and creamy when finished. Adjust cooking time if needed.
