Title: Show us you Super Bowl Spread!
Post by: voodoolily on February 03, 2008, 10:15:35 AM
And no, Cheddar, I'm not talking about legs.

We're making:
sliders with manchego
pigs in a blanket (idea stolen from Ooki)
wangs (the store didn't have any actual wings so I'm making chicken strips in buffalo sauce) with blue cheese
spinach dip in a bread bowl
tater tots
mini pizzas

It's like junk food Thanksgiving! No one is coming over, though, and we hafta eat it all ourselves.  :uhrr:

I'll post a pic later.

Oh yes, there will be beer. But we just picked up a light brown ale for drinkability. If I was pounding Shiner bock I wouldn't have room for snacks!  :awesome_for_real:

Since it's just the two of us (and two kitties), it's steak sandwiches for dinner, fresh kibble for the kitties and no snacks.   :grin:

We're not watching either, really. I'm here while Sauced plays Metroid Prime Corruption and we are both drinking beer.

Venison sloppy joe's sounds great!

I made some shrimp with a garlic lemon butter pinogrigio cheese sauce over linguine, topped with marinated mozz chez chunks. Forgot to wrap the shrimp in maple bacon, so tonight we'll have the other half of the shrimp wrapped in maple bacon over rice. I LOVE MAPLE BACON. I'm a maple freak. Maple sugar, maple syrup, maple bacon, MORE MAPLE. Gramp used to know a guy who tapped trees, I think I was hooked as a kid on the good stuff.

Had an Ommegang Witte (light white wheat) with dinner and settled down after with the last of my stash of Saranac Black Diamond Bocks.

Costco size bag of party mix
frozen Spanicopitas
Keith's

Had a couple friends to watch it with because they realized I'd get the American feed and thus the American commercials

Veggies + ranch
Potato chips
Tortilla chips + cream cheese salsa dip
Mushrooms stuffed with italian sausage
Shrimp and cocktail sauce
Take & bake pizza from Magpies

Washed it down with some Black Butte Porter.  My first time with this beer and it was quite good. 

Pretty ordinary (but tasty), but eating constantly helped get through the first 3 quarters.

Veggies.
Sweet Potato Chips.
Tortilla Chips

5 kinds of cheese and a brie wedge.

I'm only allowed to watch that movie once a year, on xmas day. We don't even talk about Anchorman anymore. I think Will Ferrell is my long-lost twin brother.

Bud Light. Suck it!

That's not possible.


Title: Re: Show us you Super Bowl Spread!
Post by: stray on February 04, 2008, 09:22:25 PM
it was like triple chocolate, plus chips in the icing.., then some gooey chocolate stuff in the middle.. then the cake itself was chocolate. to top it off, it was a bitch to cut. the thing was like 8 inches high. you couldn't get a small piece.

What is "powdered" chex?  Do you snort it?


Title: Re: Show us you Super Bowl Spread!
Post by: stray on February 05, 2008, 02:45:16 AM
Nothing special. Just chex cereal sprinkled with powdered sugar. I guess it made a good table appetizer for people who didn't want anything salty..

I've been to the brewery that makes it! It's in Bend, Oregon, in the high desert. Deschutes makes some good beers.

How do you get it to stick?  Do you drizzle the chex mix with something like Karo, oil, or butter?  It sounds good.  I'd probably mix this with some nuts for the sweet/salty effect though then the people that wanted to avoid salty would be out of luck. 


Title: Re: Show us you Super Bowl Spread!

I didn't make it, a friend did. I could ask later..

Post by: Merusk on February 05, 2008, 04:52:20 PM
I don't think you have to do anything special.  Chex has a rough surface and powderd sugar likes to stick to things.   Just stick it in a bag and shake it.  Shake it like a polaroid picture.

Shake it like a British nanny!

Yeah that's all she did. Not sure if you should try butter or oil Nebu... Could get messy.

Veruh nahce! (That was supposed to sound like Borat)

You can even see the juices pooling up on the meat. That's the munny shot.

it was quite tasty!  I should have taken a pic after I sliced it open but it was disappearing as fast as I was carving it (plus I was afraid to leave it unattended while I went in search of the camera).

She speaketh the truth. I haven't had a Deschutes beer I didn't like yet. Mirror Pond is probably my fav atm.

When was the Super Bowl?  Sunday?  I probably made a pizza.  Wheat crust, Muir Glen organic sauce, Horizon organic cheddar, totally inorganic Italian Spice.
