Chipped Beef Cheese ball

Chipped Beef Cheese Ball with green pepper and onions. A delicious appetizer for a party. Serve with crackers, bread or vegetables.

This chipped beef cheese ball is something my parents would make during the holidays when we had family visit. It’s a great appetizer for entertaining-creamy, crunchy and so delicious! Would be a great addition to a cheese board or paired with a blushing mimosa. 

There are so many wonderful cheese ball recipes like this pimento cheese ball. This chipped beef version is one of my favorites.

What is chipped beef

Chipped beef is pressed, salted and dried beef that has been sliced very thin. You can find chipped beef in the refrigerated section of the grocery store, usually by deli meats. 

How to make a chipped beef cheese ball

• Add chopped chipped beef, cream cheese, green pepper, green onion, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder and seasoned salt to a bowl. 
• Mix all of the ingredients together until well combined. 

• Place the mixture on a piece of plastic wrap and shape into a ball. 
• Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving. 

Tips for making a cheese ball

A big tip with using cream cheese is to allow it to softened. It makes it SO much easier to mix together with the other ingredients. 

Make sure to dice your ingredients pretty small so they are easy to eat. 

If you would like to add a little more color and crunch to the cheese ball, roll in chopped nuts before serving. 

What to serve with a cheese ball: Crackers, cut up vegetables or little pieces or toasted bread are good options. I have also used this mixture to stuff in mushrooms.
