If you don't already have a cheese fondue pot, you may want to consider getting a versatile fondue pot that can be used for chocolate fondue, cheese fondue and meat fondue in either hot oil or broth. I recommend the pot shown on the left. In addition to being versatile, it is also electrical.
I recommend the Trudeau electrical fondue pot as a multipurpose cheese fondue pot that would work great for this cheese fondue recipe.
Add the extra crumbled blue cheese on top.
