Jalapeño Popper Pull Apart Bread and Resolute

We recommend serving this as an appetizer with Iron Hub Resolute.

Ingredients

16 oz. Italian bread loaf
1 pound of bacon, dried, cooked and drained
8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
½ cup pickled jalapeños
½ teaspoon garlic salt
1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded

Directions

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees
2. Cut the bread diagonally, cutting down most of the bread, but not all the way through. Turn around and repeat the other direction.
3. Cream together the cream cheese, bacon, jalapeños, garlic salt, and mozzarella cheese.
4. Do your best to push all of the mixture into the crevices of the bread.
5. Cover loosely with tin foil, and bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the mixture is completely melted. Serve immediately.
