This hot country ham dip is another great recipe from the book, Race Day Grub that I picked up the other day. The first recipe we made, the Harvick’s Mexi-Cali dip, was perfect for race watching. This dip is savory, making for a great contrast to the heat of the first dip. It’s not like any other dip that I normally serve. And that’s a good thing.
From A Racing Legend
This recipe for hot country ham dip comes from Bobby Hamilton, who unfortunately passed away a few years ago. His son continues to be involved in racing as of the writing of this post. It’s good to see multiple generations of families in involved in NASCAR and other racing leagues.
Also try my Louisiana red bean dip.
