The BIG Super Bowl question....what are you eating?
 

Maybe you're staying home, maybe going to a party, might be going to a bar. Wherever you watch the game there's sure to be food involved.

Personally, I'm a traditionalist. For me wings and chili is to Super Bowl as turkey and stuffing is to Thanksgiving. I've got my chili done tonight and I'll get the wings done just before the game. I also have some tamales on hand, I'll make some New Mexico red chili sauce to pour over. Got plenty of beer, chips and salsa, guacamole, I think I'm all set.

How about you, what's on the menu? Are you making it or buying it? Going traditional or are you more sophisticated than that?

Fried mushrooms with horseradish sauce and pot stickers. I was trying to think of a third dish, but since its just me, my wife and daughter, two will be enough.

Fried turkeys and a bunch of other stuff.

Mr. and Mrs. Tenorman Chili with side of Scott's tears.

The regular finger food, and yes a big helpin of chili!
Going to start around 11:00 with bloody marys and poker, so food will become very important after a few hours!

Smoked ribs and salmon. Salmon comes off in 1-2 hours for the first course. Ribs off in 4-6 hours for the 2nd course.

Treagers salmon rub from Portland. Haywards rub for the ribs from OP!

... and beer.

Wow... is that really good?

What an odd combo.

Maybe pizza, probably nachos.

I'll make a big lunch of pork cutlets and mashed potatoes, etc. And I made two pies tonight.

I don't eat it. The wife and I were at a party a couple of years ago, and someone had it, and the wife fell in love with it.

You just put the stick of cream cheese on a plate, and pour the jelly over it, and dip into it with crackers. Everyone I know who has ever tried it has raved about it.

One of my gfs, her husband, a friend and I throw a party every year over her place with the huge screen tv. Kids will come and runaround.

I just finished a carrot cake, shaped like a football field with yardlines, two ends zones (one blue one orange), pretzel goal posts, 2 choc & white Hershey Hugs for refs, and orange football candy in the middle and blue/white oval almond candies for Colts and blue/orange ones lined up for Bears. yes! I had to paint those wedding candies with food coloring!

Buffalo-wings, ribs, sandwiches, chips, dips, beer, and champagne (for the one Colt's fan who will be there)...coffee,...the usual stuff.

It's actually fairly well known. I see it at all kinds of parties.

Huh... never heard of it.

It sounds interesting, that's for sure.

I'm bringing my beans. They're loaded with bacon, sausage, pulled pork, and rib drippings. I love my beans.

umm, some of her, and beer

Are they beans with pork or pork with beans. Either way, sounds damn good. If you got rib drippings, where did the ribs go?

What is Haywards rub?

She's not so bad looking, you should let her take the mask off.

No one wants to see his mom's face.

The ribs have been consumed.

I don't know what these beans are called. I really need a name for them because I make them all the time.

They're Fathead's Spicy Beans.

Mostly salt.

Don't ribs get grilled, and if so, don't the drippings drop into coals?
You get the drippings from there?

As usual they sound great btw!

Offset firebox on a smoker. I put the pan below the ribs and the coals are in the firebox.

I'm going to my first SB party after years of hosting so I really don't know what to expect except for ribs,chili,wings and the reuben dip I'm taking.

As for drink,I'll be at a friends bar so I haven't decided as of yet.
