Super Bowl menu

[DJ's left nut]

We've done a whole hog for years. Not gonna bother - got a game to watch. Beyond the headache of the cook is the whole shredding/serving/cleaning - just waaaaaay too much work.

Catering brisket, burn ends, smoked turkey and pulled pork. Mac and cheese, potato casserole and homemade chips. I guess guests will bring some stuff but I don't really give a damn either way.

I'm going to set up a turkey fryer and cook wings since catering them will make them mushy and pretty damn average. Might do a bacon explosion, might not. Haven't decided if I care to do that much work.

We'll have about 40 people at the party and if it's close in the 4th quarter, I'm locking myself somewhere far away from the rest of the crowd.

When you have a party every year, the first time you cancel it you'll lose that momentum forever. I think this will be year 11 of the damn thing so it's kinda the thing that most of our friends go to for the Super Bowl every year. In years that the Chiefs aren't in it, it's a lot of fun to hang out with all of them.

But man, I'd just as soon just head to the basement with a 12 pack and a steak and watch this one on my own...
