This cowboy queso is a cheesy, meaty, stick-to-your-ribs queso. Feel free to use chicken broth or beef broth instead of beer. I grew up with sliced black olives in many dishes so they work for me, but omit them if they’re not your thing. I like to serve this in individual cast iron skillets for the full "cowboy" experience but any serving dish will work.
