Easy Cheesy Patty Melt Dip with Video Presentation

Everything you love about a patty melt is in this easy to make Patty Melt Dip. It’s sure to be a real crowd pleaser at your next party or celebration!

My husband and I love patty melts, and we order them often when we go out to eat. This recipe idea came to me when I was thinking of appetizer ideas I wanted to serve at our upcoming small but annual big game day party.

It’s an easy and delicious twist on a patty melt burger, and once you try it, you’ll be amazed how much the flavor of this Patty Melt Dip resembles the iconic patty melt burger, caramelized onions and all!

Ingredients for making Easy Cheesy Patty Melt Dip:

1½ large yellow onions, 1 pound ground beef, olive oil, salt, pepper, beef stock or broth, garlic, dill pickle relish, yellow mustard, Velveeta or 1 pound American cheese, and cocktail rye bread or dippers of your choice.

I did use Velveeta in this Patty Melt Dip because I knew it would melt better than any other cheese I could think of. If you’re not a fan of Velveeta then, by all means, you can substitute one pound of American cheese for the Velveeta. I think the result will be similar in texture and flavor, but I can’t be 100% positive because I’ve not tried it myself. If you do, please write me and let me know how it turned out!

The day I made this Patty Melt Dip and shot the photos and video, I couldn’t stop snacking on it. I guess that’s the sign of a really good recipe. At least I like to think so.

In my defense (not that I need one, haha), it also doubled as my lunch that day, which brings me to my point of serving Patty Melt Dip as you would a sloppy Joe, by adding on a burger bun. Or, spoon Patty Melt Dip over a baked potato! How about that idea? Before you know it, you have two easy and delicious main course dinner ideas that you didn’t even see coming!
