We're having a "special" SB party...everyone will get a chance to help finish clearing the 2 ft. of snow driveway out before the game.
Tom was out yesterday with the snow blower, but it's too deep for a man his age to handle by himself. Will let the younger ones finish the job.

No party, but I'll be watching on TV in my nice warm house.

LOL!!!! @ cello music! Dang, yer a quick'un, Major RCG! CONGRATS to Yo Mama and the Giants!!! What a GREAT upset at the last minute!! With 2:something left, I thought the Yorkies were done for. What a fun ending! My favorite commercial was a toss up between Tide's Silence the Stain and Toyota's Badger....ok, and Bridgestone's Screaming Richard Simmons. LOL But Hank the Clydesdale ("Rocky") made me feel warm and fuzzy inside. Cars.com's Ring of Fire, etc., commercials were way up there, along with FedEx's Pigeons, Doritos's Kicka$$ Mouse (YIKES! LOL), and (Planter's?) Unibrow Lady. Ok, Charles Barkley's big mouth got a chuckle, too. :D Z-Chick, if you're rarin' to go next Sat. after having surgery today, then showing up at Clancy's is the least we can do! :D Hope you're feeling better soon!!! Bad toothache with an infected loose tooth here. WHAAAA! The dentist scares me a LOT, so wish me luck today....*whimper* Fi guy, thanks SO MUCH for doing this every year!!!! Brenda

Super Bowl Plans?

I am fixing beef and pork barbecue sandwiches, baked beans, fried potatoes and cole slaw plus a rich chocolate cake. This sounds great, Sue! Just the sort of meal DH (and I) would really like. We really like to make BBQ pulled pork in the slow cooker. Yum! He and our guys will also want hot wings, jalapeno poppers, chili-cheese dip with Tostitos Scoops, potato skins, etc, throughout the game. We'll be together with family next Sunday -- some pulling for the Saints, some pulling for the Colts. It ought to be verrry interrrresting, LOL. As for myself, I have mixed feelings -- I was a huge fan of Archie Manning eons ago when he was such a great QB for the then-perennially losing Saints (aka the "Aints" back then). I usually pull for his sons, both Peyton and Eli. I'd be in a real fix if the Colts and Giants met in the Super Bowl, LOL. Now Peyton, who grew up in Cajun country (as did several other Colts players), is going up against Archie's old team! It's almost surreal.

Super Bowl Sunday Parties - anyone?

Hi cactuscatie, welcome to the forum. I saw this in today's Los Angeles times, and it intrigued me. I haven't read it through yet, sorry. Recipe: Muldoon's whiskey-marinated wings January 30, 2008 Total time: 3 hours, Servings: 8 Note: Adapted from Muldoon's Newport Beach. The restaurant recommends Maytag for the blue cheese. This recipe makes slightly more barbecue sauce and dressing than is called for in the final recipe. Barbecue sauce 1 cup chicken broth 1/2 cup orange juice 1 1/4 cups chili sauce 1/2 cup molasses 1 cup ketchup 2 tablespoons soy sauce 2 tablespoons dry mustard Generous 1/4 teaspoon minced garlic 2 dashes Tabasco sauce 1 tablespoon plus 3/4 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1 tablespoon plus 3/4 teaspoon fresh lemon juice 1 1/2 teaspoons hickory liquid smoke In a large saucepan, combine the chicken broth, orange juice, chili sauce, molasses, ketchup, soy sauce, mustard, garlic, Tabasco sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice and liquid smoke and bring to a boil, stirring the bottom of the pan regularly to prevent burning. Reduce the heat to a gentle simmer and cook an additional 45 minutes. Remove from the heat to a nonreactive container and allow to cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate until needed. This makes 3 1/2 cups sauce and will keep for 2 weeks refrigerated. Blue cheese dressing 1 1/4 cups mayonnaise 5 tablespoons sour cream 1 tablespoon lemon juice 2 drops Worcestershire 2 drops Tabasco 1/4 teaspoon white pepper 2 teaspoons sugar 2 ounces (scant 1/2 cup) blue cheese, crumbled 5 tablespoons celery leaves, minced 3 slender green onions, white part only, minced 1 tablespoon minced chives Combine the mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, Worcestershire, Tabasco, pepper and sugar in a medium bowl. Gently fold in the cheese, celery leaves, green onions and chives. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve. This makes 1 3/4 cups dressing and will keep for 1 week refrigerated. Chicken wings and final assembly 1/2 cup Irish whiskey (preferably Bushmills) 2 1/2 cups teriyaki marinade 2 1/2 cups barbecue sauce, divided 1 teaspoon dried oregano 2 pounds chicken drumettes 1 cup blue cheese dressing 1. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, mix together the whiskey, teriyaki sauce, 1 cup barbecue sauce and oregano. Place the chicken wings in a large pan and pour the sauce over them. Cook for 2 hours, until the meat is tender and almost falling off the bone. Remove the wings to a foil-lined sheet pan and allow to cool slightly. 2. Brush each of the wings with a little of the remaining barbecue sauce. Place the pan under the broiler just until the sauce begins to char, about 2 minutes. Remove from the broiler and place the wings on a platter with the blue cheese dressing on the side. Serve immediately.

Am I the only one who couldn't care less about the Super Bowl?
Q

Actually, my wife is a bigger fan of watching football than me. We watch when the Packers are playing. The packers did not play in the super bowl this year, ergo, we made no effort to watch - did catch part of Bruce Springsteen's 1/2 time show. I understand that the Steelers made fantastic 100 yd run to their goal following an interception at the opponents goal line - what a save!

That would be me....if we get up the driveway. I'm bringing wings. Everyone brings a snack and the host and hostess do the main course. She's having coq au vin and beef bourguinonne. How good does that sound! We'd better get up that driveway!!! Dottie

We are! Can't wait...love the commercials!

DH already has a pork butt on the smoker. The meat is so good we stand at our island doing "quality control" while he's shredding it! There will be coleslaw and dill pickle chips to make pulled pork sandwiches.

Pizza dough is already done, but I still have to go pick up veggies and cheese for that.

I'm also making meatballs, egg rolls and a salsa dip to serve with tortilla chips.

Everyone, enjoy the game! Go Saints (Who Dat Nation!)

My sb party will be at a small town gym watching my dd's Basketball game. Why the other coach picked SB night, no one knows. It's only a scrimage game too. Guess I'll be cheering our team on tonight. I really, really want some chicken wings this evening!!

No party here. Just having dinner at noon. Fried chicken, mashed potatoes, left over chicken and noodles, some kind of vegetable, rolls, cole slaw, apple salad, and raspberry pie and fresh iced tea. Amber and Mike will join us. The others don't want to get out in the snow. I might put a frozen pizza in the oven for this evening. I imagine son in law Mike will come and watch the game with my husband. I will be in my room doing whatever, just check the score from time to time.

Sue in Indiana!

Family party here, only we won't be watching the SB. I have rented the first two Harry Potter movies and we'll be having family movie night. But we will be having SB type foods like loaded nachos and homemade carmel popcorn. DH is thinking about doing some wings on the grill, but he makes them so screaming hot, he'll probably be the only one that can actually eat them.

Do men do this on purpose? ;)

Our 22 year old son is having a party here today. He still lives at home. Curt has to work 4-12pm. We have a 50" TV, that should be used he said! Anyway he is so nervous about the food, wants to make sure there is a nice variety and plenty of it. It is so cute to listen to him plan a party. Should have about 8-10 young men over today. I love it!!

I sure am missing our annual Superbowl down at my sister's house, but her DH has to have surgery (heart valve replacement) soon so, understandably, she wasn't up for it.

But DHarry and I are having SB food anyway. We're having wings with celery and blue cheese ranch dressing, loaded potato skins, bacon-wrapped water chestnuts and a sausage, cream cheese and Rotel tomato dip with tortilla chips. So very not good for us! Maybe I'll put out some broccoli to dip in the dressing and sausage dip to allieve my guilty conscience.

GO COLTS!!

Just a family party here with all the snacks! We've been snowed in this weekend (over 2 FEET of snow!!) and everyone is off tomorrow, so it should be fun! We worked up an appetite shovelling and sledding!

No party food but I'll watch the game at home. With it being on so late, I can't go out late. I need to stay home so I can get up early tomorrow. I wasn't at work all last week and I know it's piling up.
