These ham and cheese appetizer skewers are made with deli ham and cheese cubes. I’m always on the hunt for easy appetizers that look like I put in way more effort than I actually did. My skewers are my new secret weapon. Seriously, they take minutes to assemble.

Tips & Tricks (5)

  • Pre-chill Your Ingredients ❄️
    Refrigerate the ham, cheese, and tomatoes for at least 30 minutes before assembling to prevent the cheese from sweating and sliding off the skewers.
  • Roll Ham for Better Structure 🌀
    Roll or fold the deli ham into quarters before threading onto skewers—this creates a sturdier base that holds cubed cheese more securely than flat slices.
  • Soak Wooden Skewers Properly 💧
    Soak wooden skewers in water for 20-30 minutes before assembly to prevent burning and splintering when handling or serving.
  • Choose Dense Cheese Cuts 🧀
    Cut cheddar cheese into uniform ½-inch cubes rather than larger pieces—uniform size ensures even texture, prevents sliding, and creates more professional-looking skewers.
  • Glaze with Herb Butter for Elegance 🧈
    Just before serving, lightly brush skewers with melted herb butter infused with Dijon mustard to add sophisticated flavor and a polished, restaurant-quality appearance.
