What to Eat for the Super Bowl

Good old Nathan hot dogs does it for me from the NY side

PIZZA,RIBS,A BIG HONKING 3 FOOT SUB.THAT IS USUALLY GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME. ALSO THE SNACKS AS WELL CHIPS,DIP. YOUR GOOD TO GO FROG. :D

Add some NY pizza to my order as well.

I forgot to say that there will only be two of us! I can get all the NY stuff but what about New England? I am from NJ and so are the Giants. Thats right! I don't care!
How about two slices of pizza and a one foot sub? I am in Florida so ribs are not a problem!

SOUNDS LIKE A PLAN FROG.HAVE YOURSELF A DAY. :D

Here's our menu, and this is just for me, my husband, and my nine-year-old!

wings, made in the croc with franks.
a sub..I take a big french bread loaf and slice it through the middle. I load it up with ham and muenster, lettuce, tomato, onion, sweet peppers, and sliced olives.
cheese dip..velveta cheese melted with salsa, cream cheese, and 2 cans of Hormel chili NO BEANS!
anchovy stuffed olives
sausage won tons..I love to make these!

That all sounds great! Sausage wonton! Thats different!

Frog, it's really good! You just take a roll of HOT breakfast sausage and cook it up. Add some red pepper, green onions, and shredded mozz. Then you put that mix in wonton wrappers and fry them up. They are excellent!

Do you deep fry them? Sounds like mini stromboli

Yep, I deep fry them. Kinda is like a stromboli, but really more like an egg roll!

you guys are making me hungry we will probably eat tostito's and dip..anybody have a receipe for a great cheese or cream cheese dip receipe or a receipe for a cheese roll?

There is one above from fins! I have had that one it is simple and good! Down here in Florida peole use velveeta and rotelle mixed together. I never heard of rotelle until I moved here. Not the pasta it is a canned sauce!

Onion dip is my favorite...cream cheese..onion soup mix and milk beat it up and it is the best. I am not a fan of sour cream..so I use cream cheese. Chips..salsa and chips..and pizza rolls. It's my family's traditional snack day!!!

That is work!

If I had a recipe I would give it to you.....

I know. I have been making clam chowder (the red type) for most of my life. My father grew up in a clam digging town called Highlands NJ. They were poor and caught much of what they ate. My grandmother made clam chowder. My mother made it and I make it. I never had a recipe. I learned by trial and error and watching and tasting! Why they call it Manhattan I will never know! Clams were not dug in Manhattan!

hmm good point on the manhattan clams....that would be scary :shock:

From a New Yorker

Manhattan clam chowder has clear broth, plus tomato for red color and flavor. In the 1890s, this chowder was called "Coney Island clam chowder" and "Fulton Fish Market clam chowder." The name "Manhattan clam chowder" became attached in the early 1900s. Restaurants typically serve New England or Manhattan chowder, but not both. Manhattan chowder was simply an Italian clam soup renamed for reasons of style. Clam chowder, in its cream-based New England version, has been around since the mid-18th century, adding that no mention of any Manhattan chowder has been found that predates the 1930's. Any restaurant in northern Rhode Island will sell both red and white chowders, while the southern coast favors clear and white chowders. Often they are served alongside clam cakes.

Good trivia! Thanks for that info Kash...figured there had to be a story behind it.

Key to super Super Bowl? Finger foods

Besides the game itself, the Super Bowl is all about the snacks.

The rules:

Snacks need to be portable so they can be eaten in front of the television, not sitting at a dining-room table.

Finger foods are the bomb.

The basic snack food groups are: protein (Velveeta and hot wings), vegetables (hot peppers), dairy (dip) and grains (chips).

You also need plenty of canned beverages to wash it down.

"Hot wings, sandwiches, egg rolls, little vegetables, that kind of thing," said Art Carroll of Roseville.

Crudit????s?

"Well, not so much that," he said. "My wife makes me eat them, but I don't really like it. Lots of chips and dip. Beer. Hard liquor. Good stuff."

Carroll belongs to three fantasy football leagues. Super Bowl Sunday is party day at his house, and he often hosts 25 or more football enthusiasts.

"I'm a football junkie," Carroll said. "For the Super Bowl, we get together early in the day, play pok er and watch the game. I love it."

When it comes to food for the big party, Carroll says you need to concentrate on things that won't take too much time away from the television.

"One year, we tried to do steaks," he said. "That didn't work out. It took too much time. What you want is stuff you can pile on your plate. Then you can find your seat and settle in till the commercials come on. You don't want to have to be getting up to check steaks on the grill."

The required menu item is hot wings, said Carroll.

"When it's at my house, I always cook the wings," he said. "You've got to have wings or everyone will be disappointed. Quick stuff is better. You know, stuff you can put in the oven or just put on the table that doesn't take much time."

We went in search of "good stuff" at tailgate.com. The site is hosted by Joe Cahn of New Orleans, the self-appointed "commissioner of tailgating." Cahn logs about 30,000 miles a year in his RV, visiting 45 stadiums and tailgate events. He collects recipes from football fans across the country and posts the best on his Web site.

Although we can't vouch for any of the recipes we found on the site, most speak to the fortitude, if not the digestive tracts, of football fans. For example:

??????? Piggy cheese dip. Basically it's a pound of cooked bacon, a pound of cooked sausage, a healthy glug of Habanero Tabasco sauce and 2 pounds of Velveeta cheese, all melted together in a slow cooker. You serve it with a couple of bags of tortilla chips and a lot of beer. And, we would imagine, Tums.

??????? Giants flank steak. A New York Giants fan from south Jersey offered this recipe for steak sandwiches. Take one big flank steak and poke it with a fork about 100 times. Cut shallow cross-slits across the steak on both sides. Soak it overnight in soy sauce, minced garlic and black pepper. Grill it to rare stage on a charcoal grill and brush it with teriyaki barbecue sauce before you take it off the grill. Cut the steak in very thin slices and serve on steak rolls.

??????? Fire eggs. One Detroit Lions fan makes several batches of these eggs during football season. Basically, you hard-cook about three dozen eggs. Peel the eggs and drop them into a large glass jar with a tight-fitting lid. Add a chopped onion, a 12-ounce bottle of hot sauce, a 5-ounce bottle of Tabasco, diced habanero, jalape????o, cayenne and chili peppers, one each. Fill the jar with white vinegar. Cover tightly and refrigerate for about a week. Serve with gallons of beer.

??????? Patriots beer pops. A New England Patriots fan created this interesting recipe. Pour 12 beers into ice cube trays. Place a wooden craft stick into each cube. Freeze the trays for two days. When solid, remove the beer cubes from the trays and eat them like Popsicles.

??????? Rattlesnake Tails. These appetizers can be made a day in advance and reheated on game day. Cut two jars' worth of jalepe????os in half and place them on a foil-lined baking sheet. Melt Velveeta in a pan over low heat. Stir constantly while the cheese melts. Fill the jalape????o pepper halves with melted cheese. Chill until the cheese is firm. Dunk the filled peppers in an egg batter (the kind you might use for waffles or tempura) and roll in bread crumbs. Place the peppers back on the foil and bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes. Serve hot.

this is a great post. Im all about the finger foods.

Quote:

So far it looks like one or more of the following for us this Sunday.
Coconut Shrimp with tangerine dipping sauce
Fried Calamari with spicy garlic sauce.
Chicken Satay with Thai peanut sauce.
Key Lime Pie. It is Florida and we have key limes. What a pain squeezing those little things! But the result is worth it. My wife is the baker. I could ruin white bread. I am like a male Rachel Ray. I can cook but I can't bake to save my life!.
I was also thinking about just making Southern fried chicken with biscuits and gravy.

I like that wing recipe that Volley put up there. I make a similar one but more teryaki mainstream with toasted sesame oil, honey, rice vinegar garlic and 5 spice powder. There is a couple other things but I forgot what they are. Oh! Soy sauce and ginger.(fresh)

Is it wrong to bump yourself?
