Is there a game tonight?
Apparently, there is some large sporting event planned for later this evening…or at least that's what I determined based upon the number of people shopping at the grocery store yesterday. This time of year, large crowds at Kroger tend to mean the pending arrival of "white death". Although since I noticed no one buying milk or bread, I concluded the mass of humanity was stocking up because of the Super Bowl.
Even though I am not the biggest sports fan in the world, I do tend to enjoy any event that happens to include food and beer. So yes, I will be watching the Super Bowl. As the hours tick down to game time, there is still time to fire up the grill, head out to the store and participate in your own local grocery flash mob.
When you do, here are some last minute snack ideas:
Wings
Nothing says game day food like chicken wings. In fact, my friend Todd at Boston Beer has a great post on his game day wings, which I am making for myself this year. Here are some other ideas for you from the APP archives:
Grilled Honey Mustard Whiskey Injected Wings
Fatty
If pork was an abundant part of the early Egyptian diet, I would fully expect the fatty to be mentioned in hieroglyphics on the wall of some pyramid. It's that important, that good and also the official "food" of Brew Day. What else is there to say?
Health(ier) Stuff
Everything served for the big game doesn't have to kill you by the time baseball's spring training starts. Here are some final last minute ideas. Enjoy the game and happy grilling!
