Happy Super Bowl Sunday! I hope you all get to see a good game and eat some good food surrounded by good people.

About the food part, I was thinking it might be a fun idea to post some of our favorite Super Bowl or tailgating recipes. My wife was making the comment this year that we should think about changing up our own menu, I'm hoping you guys can provide some inspiration!

Here's an awesome hot artichoke dip...

1 cup parmesan cheese
8 oz cream cheese
1/2 cup sour cream
1/2 cup mayo
1 tsp dill weed
1 tsp garlic powder
1 14oz can/jar of artichoke hearts

Preheat oven to 350. Coat 8 x 8 baking dish with non-stick spray. Drain and chop artichoke hearts, mix with other ingredients and put into dish. Bake for 30 minutes until bubbly. Best served with French or sourdough bread, or crackers.

No, No, No. It's good beer and lots of it. Then it doesn't matter if the people who surround you are good.

I've had a brisket going on the smoker since about 8:00 this morning. I'll cheat and finish it in the oven to speed things up a bit though. Smells absolutely amazing.

1. Orange marmalade chicken wings
2. Beer battered fried macaroni bites
3. Corn jalapeno dip
4. Stuffed mushrooms

The only thing I have made before is the wings... And I know they are good. The corn dip is in the slow cooker now, I'm pretty sure its going to be good. Haven't started the other two.

Talk to me about these. How did you get he Mac and Cheese to stay together? I have tried to make Mac and Cheese bites a few times and can never get them to cooperate....

Did you cook those bacon wrapped smokies in the oven? They sound really good.

They were originally supposed to be bacon wrapped jalapeno poppers.. that being, a cut in half jalapeno, gutted, cream cheese, little smokey, wrapped in bacon.. unfortunately, that didn't happen so I audibled to bacon wrapped smokies.. put them in the oven at 425 for 30 mins. Crisp up good that way.

So the fried macaroni, I make the beer cheese separately. Then u add to the noodles, and spread out on cookie pan to cool. Kinda like day old rice, the starch makes things sticky. The recipe says to use an ice cream scoop to portion... Whatever... use whatever u like, but I find that squares tend to hold the batter better. After battering, it's important to to let the batter set, so move the bites to the fridge for 20 minutes.

Then fry.

On a side note, ours didn't make the cut the past weekend, I was incorporating the beer into the cheese, and accidentally doubled the amount of beer, I misread the recipe. Let's just say the cheese was way to bitter.

Was that because of tailgating too hard?

Next time you cook the bacon wrapped smokies, sprinkle some brown sugar on them before they go in the oven. The result is nothing short of amazing.

Thanks for the information. I'll have to give these another shot!

These were like eating crack as it was. I'll try that next time.
