Instructions

Step 1. Add cream cheese, sour cream, ranch seasoning, and Head Country Bar-B-Q Championship Original Seasoning to a large mixing bowl. Stir with a spatula until combined. Add shredded cheeses, half of the bacon, and all except 3 Tbsp. of the parsley (set aside the rest for later). Stir the mixture until thoroughly combined. 

Step 2. Form the cheese mixture into a ball and wrap tightly in plastic wrap. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight, until firm.

Step 3. Make the outer coating just before serving. Add pecans, remaining half of the bacon, and remaining parsley to a bowl. Stir to combine. Spread out on a plate or flat surface.

Step 4. Roll the cheese ball in the mixture, being sure to coat the entire outside. Press the coating in well to be sure it sticks. 

Step 5. Serve immediately or cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve. Enjoy!
