2. Designed with Back-of-House in Mind

When it comes to back-of-house convenience, Queso Bravo® Cheese Dip was designed with your kitchen’s needs in mind. You can throw the pouch directly into a steamer or a boiling pot of water, eliminating the hassle of opening heavy cans with sharp edges and simplifying the line. Eliminate big, bulky cans and bring on the pouch!

3. Virtually Unbreakable

We understand the challenges that come with the fast-paced world of a commercial kitchen and how busy your staff can be in any given moment. That’s why we’ve stress-tested our Queso Bravo® Cheese Dip, so you can trust that you’ll have consistent results no matter what’s happening in the kitchen. Whether you prep your queso in a steamer, boiler, microwave or on the stove top (just to name a few), we put the heat on Queso Bravo® Cheese Dip so you can be confident that it won’t scorch or oil off if left for too long. Not only did we bring the heat, we brought the chill! Our Culinary Experts have taken hot product, cooled it down and reheated it back to boil with no problems and great results. We’ve made Queso Bravo® Cheese Dip virtually unbreakable so you and your staff can have peace-of-mind even at your busiest.

4. Take on Takeout

More and more, consumers are turning to delivery and takeout options from their favorite restaurants. With off-premise restaurant sales continuing to increase year-over-year, Queso Bravo® Cheese Dip can help you stand out by offering high-quality queso that outperforms competitors. According to a CHD Expert study, three in five consumers said that food quality was most important to them when it came to their takeout experience. With Queso Bravo® Cheese Dip, you can provide your customers with queso that easily reheats back to the lush, velvety consistency they love while maintaining the rich, creamy dairy flavor they expect.

With the ability to handle high-fat and high-acid ingredients, Queso Bravo® Cheese Dip can work as a sauce for pizza and pasta or a base for soups and stews. It can spice up menu staples like mac and cheese or be used cold as a spicy and cheesy mayonnaise substitute in your chicken salad.
