Dread-headed Texan Posted January 25 Posted January 25 My squad isn't playing in the SB nor do I care for the NFL, but Superbowl Sunday has always been a holiday. It's more about friends and family. With that being said what's on your tailgate menu? Everyone is doing wings, poppers, Texas Twinkies, or armadillo eggs. What else do you guys plan on putting on the grill or on the stove? 2 Quote
Moderators CJ Vogel Posted January 25 Moderators Posted January 25 Wingz Up up here in ATX is on the menu. Best wings in the city! 2 Quote

I was looking to add or replace items from my menu. I'm cooking for about 15-20 people and if it were up to me it would be heavily cajun flavored. But... I'm here in Austin and I want to challenge my friends taste buds. Quote

I have some left over beef ribs that I plan on using to make sliders, tacos, and my armadillo eggs with. Kind of makes me miss home because I'd much rather links, boudain, and crawfish. But when in Rome... Are you making a full slab or party ribs? 1 Quote
HookedOnTF Posted January 25 Posted January 25 some brats with onions and peppers plus jalapeño sausage never fails if peoole are hungry, and pigs in a blanket for a counter snack works for our crowd. Plus queso as said above. Quote

I don't know if it's challenging taste buds, but maybe a spicy alternative would be chicken or steak skewers with a Thai chili sauce. Got me thinking nie! 1 Quote

ElCafetero Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Im doing some carne asada tacos, spicy chicken fajitas and some pigs in a blanket with jalapeño sausage my gf also makes some really good strawberry lemonade 1 Quote
TravelingHorn Posted January 25 Posted January 25 I like to do mixed fajitas. I usually make beef, chicken, shrimp, sausage, and steak (sliced for fajitas). Then everything else ties in, home made refried beans, home made pico de gallo, your cheese dip, fresh guacamole, sour cream, etc. Quote
Itsamystery Posted January 25 Posted January 25 One of my favorite restaurants is Ribs of Vienna in Austria. I am not suggesting a DoorDash, rather they do ribs but with rubs/flavorings like you would cook wings. They marinate for three days prior to cooking. Makes for some different takes on ribs. 1 Quote
BWizzle2145 Posted January 25 Posted January 25 Bacon Explosion is always a SB hit over here. Fun, yet easy to make! My wife likes to make wonton tacos, and jalapeno wonton wrappers. You mentioned you wanted something with a Cajun flair, instead of doing a traditional buffalo chicken dip, do a Cajun style chicken dip or Cajun biscuit bombs 1 Quote

I'm a big fan of how lambchops taste coming off the pit. I've recently smoked and braised some oxtails on the pit till they were tender. 🤘🏿 edit: I also like to smoke salmon on the pit.

Alex Butler Posted January 25 Posted January 25 I always like to do a general theme for the teams in the Super Bowl. Either mascot or colors. E.g., if the rams would put some goat meat on the smoker with a honey blueberry glaze and if the broncos obviously some chili with cowboy coffee rubbed brisket and a habanero blue cheese sour cream. 1 Quote
bourbasted Posted January 26 Posted January 26 I do a big cook-up over here in Australia every year for the SB. The fan favorite over the years has been my homemade chili. I also have an Aussie verison of queso which everyone seems to enjoy. Beyond that, I've done all the standards, but also some pulled pork sliders, pork ribs, cajun corn ribs, etc. 1 Quote

Oldest Horn Posted January 26 Posted January 26 To start: queso and guacamole At halftime: Pulled pork, Baked beams, Slaw. Drinks: Beer and Palomas Quote
JTForPresident Posted January 26 Posted January 26 We usually do 1-3 different jalapeño popper recipes along with homemade dips, queso’s and chips. depending on the size of the group we do a “grazing table” charcuterie board on steroids is what I call it. 1 Quote
FriendswoodGangsta Posted January 26 Posted January 26 I usually go with whatever regional to the teams in it to tie it in. So prolly a chowder if Seattle and Pat's If LA, then a chowder and French dips. Quote

What else do you guys plan on putting on the grill or on the stove? Lord willing, I’ll be at worship and won’t be doing Super Bowl Sunday, but I’ll share some things you might consider: - Bacon wrapped jalapeño but put a half (lengthways) piece of shrimp on top of cream cheese and under bacon - Hawaiian rolls sliders with ham/turkey/cheese - Mexican street corn on the cob - Crock pot chicken dip (cream cheese, green chilis, canned chicken) - Sausage balls - Loaded potato deviled eggs (bacon, chive, whipped potato mixed with yolks, top with sour cream, jalapeño slice, etc).
