Super Bowl Menus?
Posted: Tue Jan 28, 2014 2:36 pm
Probably the usual pizza and wings here. I think wings became a staple when the Bills went to 4 straight Super Bowls in the early '90s.

Tell me about the homemade tater tots, please. I love home made french fries, nice thick ones, dressed with olive oil and roasted. So good.

They'd actually be great with something I often make for marathon TV watching like a Superbowl: chunks of boneless chicken, marinated overnight in Dijon mustard with a bit of oil and lots of tarragon (enough that it's almost a batter), then rolled in a seasoned dry mix of half flour/half cornmeal.

Btw, I know you have gout. You don't have any problem with cauliflower?

I figured Denver is a good place for Chili, and Seattle for seafood. (Someone in the group pointed out that both places are known for marijuana these days and talked about having brownies, but presumably that's a joke).
So I think I will cook up a big pot of "Texas style" mostly beef chili. The flavor of tender beef cubes simmered for a long time with top quality chili powder is hard to beat, and I suppose it's become my go to recipe for our neighbor's Superbowl party. My neighbor took the Seattle suggestion seriously and he'll be making octopus with potatoes. Pulpo gallego, you see it served all over Spain.
I read somewhere that Denver chili is different in that you see green chili almost as frequently as red. But red is what I like best...

Any time, I'll sneak in a better bottle of wine for us without letting the rest of the people know like Richard Nixon did at state dinners. One of the few things he did that I understood.
