Steps
Grate the sharp cheddar cheese into a large mixing bowl.
Finely grate one whole onion and add it to the bowl with the cheese.
Add the mayonnaise, garlic salt, Worcestershire sauce, and cayenne pepper to the mixture.
Mix all ingredients together thoroughly until well combined and creamy.
Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator to allow flavors to meld. Serve with crackers or vegetables.
Notes
This recipe is famous for being etched on the gravestone of Deb Nelson. It was originally made in large batches for the Red Lantern Steakhouse. For best results, use a high-quality sharp cheddar and grate it yourself rather than using pre-shredded cheese.
