A savoury pretzel bun version of the viral Tiktok Korean stuffed cheese bread

Jalapeno Popper Dip

Gourmet hot dogs (literally, it's a Wolfgang Puck recipe)

[b]Smoked Fish Dip[b]

Crab Rangoon

Empanadas

Hot Honey Halloumi Sliders

Cold Devilled Crab Dip

Not suggesting that these ALL go on one menu, just that it is a selection of items we've made for football food in the past

Nachos turned out spicier than expected

My lesson is that if my husband is in charge of making "nachos," he pours a bag of chips on a tray, dumps half a bag of shredded cheddar on top and sticks it in the oven. Didn't even get salsa out of the pantry!

But it was fine. Well, I caved and pulled out salsa for my portion.

Then add a variation of finder foods. With kids I would add some pigs in a blanket, chicken nuggets or tenders, or even small pieces of pizza. All stuff that while it tastes better warm, kids will still eat as it cools.

Then some basic snack foods - veg and dip, tortilla and salsa. I know I have seen a ton of Football dips on here like buffalo chicken dip.

Ugh. For a super bowl? What are you in India or something?

So rude.

No it's not. You could vary it up to include some Indian and also other types of food.

Why? I have to accommodate your sensibilities in my home, in my party, with my guests? Will I be forbidden to watch Super Bowl if my menu is entirely Indian?

Umm hmm. Baby, good food is good food! I don't want to eat whatever usual frozen food fare is being suggested here. It will be an insult to my Indian heritage and my cooking skills. Also, we have vegetarians, vegans and people with nuts and dairy allergy. At least everybody will get to eat something delicious and filling.

Does anyone have ideas for how to accommodate people who may not want pork ribs? I don't even know if people don't want ribs, but I assume 1-2 people may not eat pork just based on having thrown parties before... ? Maybe store-bought chicken wings?

We're doing this but I've just ordered with Mission BBQ. Everyone loves it and will taste better tthan if I try it (also, in the end, less expensive than if I bought all the ingredients). And I can then offer more sekections.
