This is the BEST Blue Cheese Dressing I have ever tasted! I can't believe I actually made this in my own kitchen! Absolutely incredible! I was in the process of making it and realized I didn't have in fresh buttermilk, so I was on my way to the grocery store to pick up some. I tasted the dressing without the buttermilk and decided - why make the trip? If it tastes this good without the buttermilk - I can't even imagine what it must be like with it! For now, I'll keep and review it without the buttermilk, and next time I will make it with. I don't see how I could go wrong! All I can say is WOW!! I will NEVER buy bottled blue cheese dressing again! For that matter, I couldn't get better in any fine restaurant. Luby, this one is a 10 star winner! Thank you so much for sharing your excellent recipes with us on Recipe*Zaar! — (posted Mar 8, 2003, 8 members found this helpful) .........As an update, Luby, I just wanted you to know that 2 years later I am still making Luby's Famous Chunky Blue Cheese Dressing. I buy the buttermilk now ; ) and this recipe is still the BEST I've ever tasted!! I thank you for posting this recipe every time I serve this fabulous dressing.

This is the first time I have ever made homemade blue cheese dressing....I cannot believe how good this is compared to the brand I usually buy...The only think I changed is used splenda for the sugar and Lowfat may and sour cream....love love love it...

Tres bien. Wonderful dressing please forgive me Luby but I used reduced calorie mayo and sour cream and less bleu cheese! But everything else the same. Now I am going to check out your other recipes. Thanks
