If you’ve ever loved the comforting, umami-rich flavor of creamed chipped beef (that nostalgic, creamy-savory staple of military mess halls and Midwestern suppers) but wished it came in a fun, shareable format—meet your new party MVP: the Creamed Chipped Beef Cheese Ball.
This clever twist transforms the classic into a chilled, spreadable cheese ball studded with tender chipped beef, cream cheese, and just the right touch of herbs and spice. Rolled in chopped pecans, parsley, or even crispy bacon bits, it’s a bold, savory appetizer that pairs perfectly with sturdy crackers, rye bread, or celery sticks.
Ready in 15 minutes, no cooking required, and always a conversation starter—especially with guests who remember SOS (“Sh*t on a Shingle”) from their Army days!
