I was wondering if anyone was made or knows of a way to make queso fundido (with chorizo) without using the oven. Every recipe I see on YT has someone using cast iron pan and melting cheese in the oven. One had it finished on an outdoor BBQ. Is it possible to make it in a regular skillet without dealing with cast iron or the oven? If so what are the drawbacks?

It looks like you can finish melting the cheese topping on a burner with a lid on the pan.
Cast iron cooks great and makes for pretty presentation.
Just try half a batch.

Might be nice if you explained what queso fundido is. Not everyone knows.
Guess it's too much trouble for us non-mindreaders.
Bad hair day?
I googled it, found a lot of info and the prototype was accepted by my permanent room mate. To avoid leftovers I split it between two 4 inch cast iron pots, baked one in the airfryer and froze one. Spicy, greasy, cheesy dip went well with solid chips , guacamole and pico di gallo.
I tried it with lots of garden peppers, onion, ground beef and homemade fajita spice. Keeps without the cheese in the fridge for a day or two otherwise I freeze portions.
About a cup and a cup of pepper jack in a small cast iron pan in the airfryer on 350 for 4-5 minutes until cheese is bubbely. Perfect!
This morning I added a spoon of the meat/vegetable mix to rather bland pork sausage for sausage/egg/cheese breakfast burrito. Perfect.
