Food writers years of Super Bowl recipes boil down to these favorites
Crispy or saucy chicken wings. Ham and cheese sliders. Bowls of chunky and creamy guacamole. Rah. Rah. Rah. In my playbook, a trio that includes wings, sliders, and guacamole is arguably the trifecta of Super Bowl party foods. Along with a few other crowd-pleasing favorites, you can't go wrong with platters of wings and bowls of dips. Yes, we are boohooing that our beloved Detroit Lions didn't make it to this year's big game, but that doesn't stop us from throwing a great party with some great snacks to indulge in. Before you decide on food for a Super Bowl gathering know that it's the second-biggest food-related time of the year – Thanksgiving is No. 1 – and finger and snack foods are champs. Whether you make them yourself or order them out, any variety of chicken wings from plain to saucy to spicy will do. Fried, baked, or air-fried, chicken wings are hugely popular when the Super Bowl rolls around. According to the National Chicken Council (NCC) annual Chicken Wing Report, Americans are projected to consume 1.47 billion chicken wings while watching the Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles battle on Sunday. Sliders are a go-to for ease, convenience, and make-ahead options. A favorite is ham and cheese sliders, which can be assembled the night before and baked the next day. What's to like is that you make a dozen at a time. And you can swap out ham for turkey and use just about any cheese. It's best to make a double batch of the sauce that's brushed on the sliders to serve on the side for dipping. In my playbook of party favorites, the guacamole must be chunky yet creamy with hints of lime and salt. Not a fan of guacamole? Be sure to set out some dips like the classic spinach with bread or crackers, French onion for chips, and Ranch for veggies. But you also can't go wrong with Buffalo Chicken Dip which has won over fans and gained in popularity over the years. You can make the Buffalo Chicken Dip the classic and full-fat way or try a healthier version made with cottage cheese which appeared recently in the Free Press' Healthy Table column from the nutritionists at Henry Ford Health. And so, if you're looking for game-winning wings, sliders, and guacamole, here are my go-to favorites. Serves: 6 to 8 / Prep time: 10 minutes / Total time: 1 hour 3 pounds chicken wings, thawed Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste 1 teaspoon favorite all-purpose seasoning such Morton's Nature Seasons Seasoning Blend 4 tablespoons melted unsalted butter ½ to ¾ cup favorite hot red pepper sauce (such as Frank's Red Hot Pepper Sauce) Freshly ground black pepper to taste 1 teaspoon garlic salt Favorite all-purpose seasoning Blue cheese or ranch dressing Carrot and celery sticks Place the chicken wings on a baking tray and pat dry well with paper towels. Season the wings with a generous sprinkling of kosher salt, freshly ground black pepper and favorite all-purpose air fryer directions for preheating to 390 degrees. When it's preheated, working in batches, place the chicken wings in a single layer with the skin side up. Set the air fryer for 25 minutes. As an option, you can turn the wings halfway through cooking, so they crisp on all make the sauce. In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the garlic and cook about 1 minute or until fragrant. Stir in the hot sauce and season with pepper, garlic salt and all-purpose chicken wings are done, remove from the air fryer and place in a bowl.

This Is The Most Popular Super Bowl App In Your State
On any given day, appetizers are a not-so-integral meal addition, but on Super Bowl Sunday, apps reign supreme. And to show just how snacky America is on Game Day, Google Trends has created a map that shows the most popular dips across the country. Given how fiery Super Bowl spreads can be, it's no surprise that the most popular overall is Buffalo Chicken Dip. The appetizer nearly swept the Northeast, securing the #1 spot in New York, Pennsylvania, Maine, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. Also, we'd like to take this time to ask Vermont if they're okay. Despite the fact that Vermont is beloved for its creamy cheddar cheese, Vegan Buffalo Cauliflower Dip somehow managed to nab the title of the most popular Game Day dip in the state. Cheddar cheese deserves so much better. Speaking of cheese, it's pretty popular across the board—especially the combo of meat and cheese. In states like California and Idaho, the top pick is Philly Cheesesteak Dip. Arizona is on a similarly cheesy path with Cheeseburger Dip. In the Southeast, Cheese Dip is the app of choice for Alabama, Tennessee, and Arkansas. The state of Georgia isn't too far behind with Mexican Cheese Dip. And Wisconsin must have found inspiration from the Super Bowl host city of New Orleans because their most popular dip is Cajun Dip. Google Trends also rounded up the most popular chicken wing flavors and styles. While buffalo is tops, there is quite a lot of variety compared to the most popular dips — like Florida with its French Onion Dip Wings and New Hampshire with its Honey Dijon Wings. And with all that snacking, you're bound to work up a thirst.

Dips, Chips And Forecast Tips: Transform Your Super Bowl Menu Based On Your Weather
It's the mainstay of football gatherings nationwide: The dip. Stock up on crackers or chips, pita and pretzels because you know that the dip you serve – whether hot or cold – will be the superstar of the Super Bowl party. According to Google Trends, Americans have been searching for their favorite appetizer over the past few weeks and they're looking for crowd-pleasing flavors that everyone can recognize. Dips are easy to make and can feed crowds of people efficiently. These communal dishes encourage sharing and socializing, which every good host knows are the keys to a successful watch party. And on a cold winter game night, they can warm guests up with a little heat, spice and zing. This year's winner? Buffalo Chicken Dip, the easier-to-eat-than-wings party staple, dominates in 13 states, including much of the Northeast. But other hot dishes are in close competition: Queso and Cheese Dip variations are also very popular this year in the South. So let's add one more ingredient to these party recipes… the weather. And whether you're dealing with cold temperatures, mild winter days or leftover snow and ice, we have your dips. You just have to buy the chips. Many, many parties will feature Buffalo Chicken Dip. This recipe from Brown Eyed Baker is an easy classic that features three different layers of flavors, focusing on the power trio that is hot sauce, chicken and cheese. Try corn chips as an alternative dipper to complement these sharp, pungent flavors. What's the Weather There? 'Just like that one person you invite to your Super Bowl party who has to leave early, Winter Storm Garnett should leave New England by afternoon. It will be breezy, but not as cold as it could be this time of year,' said senior meteorologist Jonathan Erdman. Switch up the flavor profile and give a nod to Kansas City-style barbecue with a tomato-based, sweet and smoky dip. Toss ingredients into a slow cooker if you wish, and allow the thicker, sweeter KC BBQ dish to bubble away until game time. Creme de la Crumb offers an easy recipe that you can make ahead of time. Serve this with crusty bread to make it more like a meal. What's The Weather There? 'Like the chips left on your plate, after you ate all the dip, much of the central U.S. will be dry. Not shockingly, it will be cold, too,' according to Erdman. Looking for an Instagram-worthy choice that's popular with partygoers? Many states in the South are searching for recipes for cheese dip or queso. This dip works for all ages and that trendy cheese pull is oh-so-satisfying with a salty tortilla chip. Customize with taco meat, peppers, tomatoes or even bacon to make it your own, as this recipe from Simply Recipes suggests. What's The Weather There? Erdman has this to say to Southerners: 'Floridians, including snowbirds and other tourists, just take your chips and queso, some towels, a good book and hang out at the beach all day. Make sure to tease your friends in cold places on social media. And you can still make it home in time for the big game.' Guacamole is a traditional cold dip that's fresh, healthy and delicious, but we're offering a twist on the classic with this avocado dip recipe from My Baking Addiction. And the best part? This dish can be made as mild or as spicy as you want. It's smooth and creamy, thanks to ingredients like sour cream and cream cheese. Make it a few hours before the party and chill it in the refrigerator until kickoff. What's The Weather There? 'Take that spread of food and a TV outside on the patio if you're in the Southwest Sunday. Can we come over around 5 p.m.? We'll bring whatever you want. If you're in the northern Rockies, go skiing first, then load up on chips and dip at the bar after,' said Erdman.
