What a fun appetizer! These Bacon-Wrapped Ranch Pretzels are quick and easy to put together for a party.
How fun are these pretzels?!?!!? These bacon pretzel appetizers are best served at room temperature, so they are perfect for making ahead of time for a party. This also makes them great for potlucks. I mean, who doesn’t love anything wrapped in bacon!
Think church parties, tailgating, football parties, picnics, Bunco night…I think these are the best little finger foods to take to any of these events.
Even the kids really enjoyed these pretzels…probably because there was extra ranch for dipping. My kids love anything dipped in ranch. Crazy kids!
I confess, I will pretty much eat anything wrapped in bacon. Bacon Wrapped Dates, Bacon Wrapped Chicken, Bacon Wrapped Jalapenos, Bacon Wrapped Pork Tenderloin, Bacon Wrapped Tater Tots….I could go on and on, but I’m starting to sound a little like Bubba from Forrest Gump.
If I’d let them, my family would devour a couple packages of bacon every week, so I try to limit their bacon intake. They don’t like it when I do that, but it’s crazy how much my family of 4 can eat in one week.

These are great, and I agree that they should be consumed the day they are made. I made these for my Sunday School class and they loved them!
So glad everyone loved them Dezi. w-
Can these be made ahead. Do they keep well?
Hi Barb, I usually make them the same day. Because it’s bacon they can’t be left out of the fridge for long periods of time and I don’t like cold pretzels or leftover bacon. w-
Yum! Quick, easy and BACON! Iam always looking for game day food. Right now we have people over for Monday night football. I wouldnt have thought to dip the bacon in the dip before baking pretty clever.
That is great. I have never seen bacon wrapped pretzels before but I’m willing to give it a try. Our frequent family get-togethers are a great way for me to offer new dishes to try and get a lot of people of all ages to participate.
now this is a new one to me i bet its good anything with bacon has got to be good
This is a proof that bacon goes with everything!!
