Sunday Football food to take to game get together?

Question

OK guys, going over a friends to see the Jets - Giants game on Sunday, big get together as he's a massive Jets fan living in Atlanta now and I need some ideas of a snack/appetizer to take over (please don't say beer and chips n dip got those covered already), his wife always does a good spread, but still want to take something easy to make and eat over. Anyone got some good recipes?

Answer 1

Since it's for a group of guys who don't live with me here is a great recipe that we use for many get togethers.
In a crock pot combine any kind of bean that you can find. We use butter beans, Bushes baked beans, black beans, kidney beans, and canellinni beans. Brown 1 pound ground serloin, and one pound of ground sausage (cut up pieces of brats also work) Combine everything in the crock pot (don't drain beans) then add your favorite barbequ sauce ( husband swears by Sweet Baby Rays) or you could just salt and pepper because the juice from the beans will help it thicken. The longer you let this cook the day of the game the better.

Answer 2

I tackle ANYONE that walks near a TV on those rare Sundays that I'm home, with some time to watch... and that includes my wife, grandmother (if visiting), 6 year old daughter and 1 1/2 year old boy who could say "tack-le" way before he knew anything about an A-B or C. (Remember this post? If not, it was written on a pro-Steelers question/forum.. and I've tried to show you how the NFL fools fans, nearly every week, on behalf of bookies. The name of the game is the Point Spread -- and with 99% of media reporting the Spread, when it's legal in only 1 city in the USA, at some point, you begin to see the manipulation vs. outcome/outlay.) Patriots 48 Steelers 17 Bank on it. (I'm not a fan of either team, but I can see a Fix'd NFL game from a mile away.. and everyone thinks this will be close, or that the Steelers may upset them... more money will be made by Bookies, on a Pats blowout than anything else.. and THAT is the name of this game. Plus, the NFL is setting up New England fans for a larger lo$$, down the road.) 2 days

Answer 3

Try this,
Buy 3 or 4 boxes of the boneless chicken chunks, heat as directed then coat with either honey BBQ sauce or hot sauce, these always go over good.

or get 3 bags of the frozen meatballs heat in microwave for about 6 minutes put in crock pot with BBQ sauce, you can do the same with the mini smoke sausages, these are so easy and very yummy

3 bars cream cheese
3 packs of dried beef Like budding
1 bunch green garden onions
1 Tablespoon garlic powder
1 Tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Mix well with your hands, form into a football shape put on plate serve with crackers

Answer 4

This is awesome and simple we make it all the time for the game. Use as much or a little ingredients as you like.

brown up some burger and onion
add a packet of taco seasoning
crunched up dorito chips
catalina dressing, we use a half of a small bottle and hubby adds more to his

I also throw in either tomatos & lettuce, corn or rice.

and then a layer of cheese

feel free to throw it in the oven for five mins to let the cheese melt, but not nessecary

Answer 5

sweet and sour meatballs, either buy premade or make your own meatballs, then put them on low in a crock pot. in a large measuring cup pour 1/2 cup ketchup and 1/2 cup water and teaspoon of sugar and teaspoon of curry powder, adjust flavour to taste and more water if sauce is too thick then add to meatballs and warm.

sauce is for approx 30 meatballs so adjust accordingly. any leftovers good for dinner served over rice or as lunch heated on a crusty roll

Answer 6

Beer

Answer 7

Gotta have the Buffalo Wings!

Answer 8

I would say...a big plate of shrimp cocktails. You can always by those at your local market.

or...

Make some deviled eggs. You can find simple recipes on foodtv.com
