For the Love of Food

The Melting Pot’s Bacon and Brie Fondue

When we ate at The Melting Pot Houston last month they were offering a special cheese fondue for the night: Bacon and Brie. It was creamy, gooey, and rich. Exactly what you want a perfect cheese fondue to be! Since this was a special, the recipe isn’t in The Melting Pot cookbook so I recreated it from memory below. Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

Bacon and Brie Fondue

Ingredients

  • 3 ounces Baby Brie softened (or substitute spreadable Brie)
  • 1/2 cup Gruyere Cheese shredded
  • 1/2 cup Buttercase cheese shredded (you can substitute Fontina, Gouda, or Emmenthaler cheese)
  • 1/2 shallot finely chopped
  • 3/4 cup white wine
  • 1/2 cup bacon diced or crumbled
  • 2 tablespoons green onion chopped
  • juice from 1/2 lemon
  • The Melting Pot's Garlic and Wine Seasoning to taste (optional)

Instructions

  • Heat wine in a double boiler or electric fondue pot.
  • Add chopped shallots and brie. Mix with a fork or whisk until creamy and combined.
  • Slowly add shredded cheese and mix until creamy.
  • Add lemon juice, bacon, and Garlic and Wine Seasoning.
  • Stir again, then top with green onions and serve.
  • *Serve with crisp vegetables, toasted bread, and crunchy green apple slices.
If you cannot find shredded Butterkase, Fontina, or Gruyere just buy the chunk of cheese and shred at home. It only takes a few minutes and the cheese mixes and melts to much easier when shredded!

I served this fondue with raw squash, broccoli, baby carrots, and cauliflower. Then I toasted and cubed garlic bread and served it on the side too.

Add white wine over medium heat then add softened brie cheese and stir until smooth.

Once you have added and melted all the cheese top with bacon and seasonings.

      I used a large fondue pot and I would say six is the right serving amount for an appetizer dip like this (Melting Pot says 4-6 servings). If you want had 1/2 more of each ingredient. Please let me know how it turns out! Happy early birthday!

    I would really love to try this recipe but I can not find what the “Melting Pot’s Garlic and Wine Seasoning” is. Can anyone help me, please?
    Thanks in advance.

      Hi there. It is a spice blend sold at The Melting Pot restaurants. You can order online or substitute a similar garlic blend.

Final Florida lunch with my Dad at a local hotspot: @stewbyseafoodshanty on Okaloosa Island. They have multiple locations but this one is by far my favorite. New, clean, beautiful scenery, and lots of space inside and outside.
🐟🐠🎣
I could eat here every day. Their seafood is the BEST. For lunch we tried their grilled grouper sandwich and seafood combo plate with amberjack, grilled shrimp, fried oysters, and all the sides and sauces to go with it (check out those scrumptious cheese grits)! 
🐟🐠🎣
Next door they have a seafood market, gift shop, and new steamer restaurant with steam buckets of shrimp, crab, and flounder with all the fixins. ⬅️ I know what I am ordering next time! Their motto: local fish at local prices. Check them out and thank me later.

🦀 Check out our lunch yesterday at my parents favorite local spot, @soiasianbistro . We tried a variety of items off of their massive updated menu.
🍣 The sushi was by far the best thing we ordered. Another must try is the Shiso Mono appetizer, which is tempura fried Japanese basil leaves stuffed with spiced tuna. 
🍤 We also ordered cucumber salad, pork ramen, udon noodles, and chicken katsu curry. All were tasty and big enough to share with the sushi appetizer. 
🍜 I recommend checking out Soi Bistro if you are in town and enjoy fresh seafood and Asian dishes like we do. But save it for a date night or special occasion b/c their price point was pretty high for a casual meal. ❤
