It’s called the SUPER bowl, not the Okay Bowl, right? Why eat the same old snacks? Isn’t it time to step up your Super Bowl spread to something that’s, well, Super? Check out these ideas that will satisfy even the pickiest Super Bowl spectator.
Start with Superbowl Dogs. These aren’t your childhood hot dogs. Snake River Farms Wagyu Beef Franks, at a quarter pound each of hearty, tender wagyu beef and delicate spices, will satisfy the hungriest and pickiest of your gang. Or we have artisan hot dogs from NaKyrsie Meats in Northern Ohio. Oscar Mayer could sure learn a thing or two from them!
A premium Hot Dog needs and premium bun – and nothing’s better than Pretzilla’s Brat Bun. We recommend these slightly warmed or toasted. Tender with the taste of pretzel, these buns will delight your taste buds.
Don’t forget the toppings! Try a swoosh of our Old Brooklyn (Cleveland) Pepped Up Mustard along with Cleveland Kitchens GnarGnar Kraut – a fresh kraut studded with jalapenos. Your mouth will thank us!
The Nacho Bar. What is easier than putting out a few tasty chips, dips and toppings in bowls and letting people build their own nachos? Start with the all-important base: Shagbark Tortilla Chips. These Southern Ohio-made chips use local ingredients and an old-fashioned process to bring out the flavor of the corn and produce superior-tasting chips that are not too thick but stand up to the toppings. We have them in yellow and blue corn varieties.
Needless to say, we love cheese. And we have a particular fondness for items that are cheesy, tasty AND don’t cost a lot. Walnut Creek’s Salsa Con Queso fits the bill. Spoonable cheese with a touch of peppers – it’s delicious! If you have any left, try it on scrambled eggs or baked potatoes!
For the best salsa in Central Ohio, you have to get Ridiculously Good Salsa. This fresh mix of tomatoes, onions, peppers, lime, and spices is, well, ridiculously good. It’s available in Mellow, Medi-yum, and High Heat.
Don’t forget the pretzels! Sourdough, sticks, handmade thick, crisps, splits – we’ve got them all! And, of course, a wide selection of dips to go with them – from cheesy ones to sweet and mustardy. Perfect game-time snacks!
Or if you’re craving something sweet for your commercial-watching party. do a Sundae Bar, starting with several flavors of Jeni’s decadent ice cream (regular or dairy-free) as the base.
Top it with Backhouse’s rich, gooey toppings. Tipsy Hot Fudge is the customer favorite, but the Praline and Tipsy Butterscotch aren’t far behind.
Don’t forget the nuts! We carry Krema Nuts from Columbus – perfectly roasted and salted. Or their toffee-coated peanuts are pretty much perfect for a Sundae.
And what would a Sundae be without whipped cream? Go for the fresh and original with local Snowville’s heavy cream. Add a touch of sugar if you wish, then beat it until it’s light and fluffy. If you’ve never made your own whipped cream, it doesn’t take long and is a whole staircase up from frozen tubs of chemical substitutes. Sooo delicious!
Or make your Super Bowl evening really easy by ordering one of The Greater Gouda’s Game Day Trays. Three cheeses from Amish Country – Mild Cheddar, Mild Swiss, and Jalapeno Muenster – as well as slices of Local Uncle Mike’s Beef Summer Sausage, and a box of GrainsFirst crackers. You’re ready for the game!
