H-E-B just dropped a NEW Brisket Queso and you KNOW I had to try it! 🧀🔥 Is this the ultimate Texas snack dip… or just another grocery store gimmick? 👀 Brisket, poblano peppers, tomatoes, melty cheese, and microwave convenience? Let’s review it on the Brick Scale! In today’s YouTube Short, I’m reviewing the all-new H-E-B Brisket Queso — a cheesy Texas-style queso dip loaded with brisket, poblano peppers, tomatoes, and mild heat. As somebody who loves trying new fast food items, grocery store finds, and limited-time snacks, this one immediately caught my attention at H-E-B. The best part? The poblano peppers absolutely carry this queso. They add a smoky flavor and just enough peppery kick to keep every bite interesting. The brisket flavor is there, but honestly I wanted even MORE brisket. The queso itself is creamy, cheesy, and super easy to make since you can microwave it right in the container. This feels like the perfect snack for game day, movie night, tailgates, or honestly just standing in your kitchen with tortilla chips at midnight making questionable life choices. 😂 Overall, I thought it was GOOD but not legendary, so I gave the H-E-B Brisket Queso a solid 3.5 out of 5 on the Brick Scale!

Why do you keep torturing me with HEB products that look like they're very good? You're killing me dude.
I think I just eat that alone lol
Very nice 👌
I think I would have to supplement that dip with some extra brisket. You said that it had a heavy brisket flavor. I’m assuming that you meant that it tastes like smoked brisket, right? I don’t know how you feel about Liquid Smoke, but it’s probably in that dip. I made a smoked brisket pizza once and the meat lost all of the smokiness in my pizza oven which at the time I was running at about 750 F. The next pizza I made I added just a tiny amount of LS to the sauce and it solved the problem and the pizza was delicious. I had to use a little trickery, but LS is not fake smoke flavor and it restored the smokiness to the meat even if it was a sensory illusion.
I think that we’re both in the same boat that at this point in life we’ve done enough crazy things that little adjustments for health reasons probably won’t make that much difference one way or another. For example, I couldn’t care less about “microplastics”. I’ve never seen them, never tasted them, don’t care. However, about 15 years ago I stopped heating food in plastic containers. It seems to make sense that it’s not a good idea to mix food and hot plastic. You’re a national treasure and we have to keep you around for as long as possible. So, if you ever buy this dip again, which I suspect you won’t, please consider putting it in a microwave safe glass bowl before nuking it. It’s important to eat healthy, ya know. 🍻🥃🍸🍷🍕🍗🍔🥓🍟
We go through a tub of their standard queso alarmingly fast. This is scary...I want 5.
