Super Bowl party ideas

[@mouseofzen]

anyone have ideas for decorations? games? food/menu ideas?

 

[Bren's Mom]

Wings of course!

I like spinach dip in the bread bowl...but for Superbowl I've made the bread myself. I get the dough ready made at the grocery store, shape it into a football and pull off a little dough to make 'laces' then egg wash it. After I cut out an oval in the center for the dip I leave the top along the side. It looks cute!

And my new recipe this year that is my guy's fave is sugar weening. Recipe is in the cooking forum. They are TO DIE FOR!

I found some football themed plates, cups, etc at target for 50% the other day. Other than that I will pick up some Colts napkins and a balloons once they have them at the party store next week.

for food I normally make a pepperoni roll, buffalo chicken dip, queso cheese dip and chips and a sandwich roll..

GO COLTS! coming to south fla again for another superbowl

We are doing fajitas. The Mexican market here has pre-marinated meat that's not crazy expensive. Plus they make fresh tortillas onsite. We have done them for big parties before and the last time we had a cookout at least one person expressed disappointment that we didn't have them again.

I'll also make some Mexican rice from the Grengo's Guide to Mexican Food or something like that cookbook we have.

Someone is bringing queso and others will bring chips and salsa and dessert.. Just trying to figure out how to precook the fajita meat and keep it warm in the crockpot without drying it out!!

We're trying the sugar weenies this year - they sound yummy! And the football bread bowl - will do this too - I make our bread almost every day anyway, so this will be a fun twist. Will make a good dip to go in...haven't decided on the flavor yet. Maybe I'll try that Buffalo Chicken one!

I'm doing our regular baked brie in pastry (with cinnamon and walnuts) - there'd be a riot if I didn't include this - with a cracker assortment. A few other hors d' oeurves/snacky things and we'll probably just go with meatballs in the crockpot (in the chili sauce/grape jelly mix) and fresh-baked rolls for the "real food." We've learned - we always eat so much of the other stuff, keep the main (half-time) food minimal and basic, since everyone's already pretty stuffed!

For dessert this time I was thinking of chocolate mousse served with Pepperidge Farm Milanos (saw a huge bag of them at BJs containing several flavors!) - taking the easy way out here for a change.

Since the Patriots aren't in it this year....we're primarily watching it for the commercials! And tradition...we're on our 10th annual SB party!

These are divine!!

Honey Chicken Wings

16 chicken wings (about 3 lbs)
1 c. honey
½ c. ketchup
½ c. soy sauce
2 tsp. vegetable oil
2 large garlic cloves, crushed and minced
Pepper (optional)

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Cut off bony tips of wings. Cut each wing in half at the joint. Place in a single layer in a shallow baking dish. In a medium bowl, stir honey, ketchup, soy sauce, oil, garlic and pepper until blended. Pour over chicken pieces turning to coat. Bake for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours or until browned, basting occasionally.

Once they are baked, I put in a crock pot on low. Keeps them warm.

P.S. I was born, raised, and still live in Pittsburgh. I recall the days of never having won a Super Bowl, so I am rooting for the Saints to win this weekend. What's not to love about a team that wears black and gold? Go Saints!! I have to add that I chered just as strongly for the Colts the year they won.
