Matagorda Fire

Linda N's Note:

This is a great recipe that will feed a horde. I got the recipe from a friend who taught at a high school I used to work at. He is also a published author -- Ron Rozelle. This recipe works well in a crockpot. Serve in the crockpot with baskets full of corn chips.

I made this for a recent family get together. It turned out pretty good, but I would probably double the cheese next time to make it a cheesier dip. Would also maybe add some cumin for extra flavor.
