Fandango Catering Offers 3 Ideas to Make Your Super Bowl Event Distinctive

To make your Super Bowl event distinctive, why not get slightly creative with what you're going to serve?

Super Bowl menus have become almost as traditional as Thanksgiving dinners, but if you're looking for a way to make your gathering a little more special, you can tweak the traditional menu items and everyone will still be happy because you're not really changing the menu.

If you serve wings, by all means serve the Buffalo style, but maybe also try this: marinate wings in wine and a hot spice such as cayenne or hot pimentón (just a touch, you don't want to overdo it), then grill or broil.  And to the traditional blue cheese sauce that accompanies wings, we like to add sour cream, half sour cream and half blue cheese, some chopped fresh chives maybe--try it, people tend to like this a lot better than the regular blue cheese dipper.

If you're serving a Mexican themed spread of nachos and so forth, why not a nacho or fajita bar? All you need to do is cook the main (i.e., "meat"), say fajitas, and then set out the fixings so it's easy, and people love to make their fajita tacos just as they like them.  Interactive! When we do a fajita bar for clients we try to put out at least three types of mains in some combination of beef, chicken, pork carnitas, shrimp, or baja style battered fish filets. For nachos the same: set out the ingredients so people can build their own nachos.

If you're serving pizzas, put out some additional toppings people can add to their slices of pizza if they want.  Again, many people love interactive food. 

If the serious game watchers don't want to bother with interactive food, serve them or have them serve themselves and leave them in peace to watch while the non-serious chatters enjoy themselves in another room, perhaps close to the food :)

Warmly,

Kristina
