Your Super Bowl Menu (1 Viewer)

I like a red cabbage or a mix, not too creamy but creamy enough and i like a nice crunch.  Probably mild to medium on the spicy.  
Find a basic slaw recipe and whatever they say for the amount of mayonnaise cut that in half and then add equal parts spicy mustard 

 
Does anybody have a baked beans recipe they want to share?  I'd like to do some with the pulled pork.  Would also love to hear if there are any good slaw recipes.

Thanks!
Are you doing the pulled pork on the smoker? If so:

Cans of Bush's baked beans - the original. (drain the liquid out of the cans)

Brown sugar

BBQ sauce

Mustard

BBQ rub

Onions

Green peppers

Garlic powder

Whatever else you can think of

Throw in a pan under the pulled pork for the last 5 hours. Let the drippings fall into the beans. Enjoy the goodness.

That’s my recipe, but add bacon.

eta: maple syrup

Too much work and cooking around these parts.  For me = frozen pizza, chips, cheap beer.
You and i have literally nothing in common other than I think we both like Radiohead an awful lot.

Because I have a small margin of error, how about some ballpark measurement d for those ingredients?  ChiefD has always hooked me up on the advice front. Home projects.  Cooking for groups. He’s good people.

Around here it's 7-layer dip or some other abomination they've been making since the Clinton administration.
It made for pinterest pictures before there was the internet.  

Looks like a gawd-awful gray mess after only a couple people dig in.  

 
Smoked turkey carcass moved from the freezer to the fridge to thaw. Will be the fuel for my turkey stock to use in the jambalaya and chili verde.

Just depends on how many people you are cooking for. I usually use 6 or more cans of the beans. Costco usually sells those 8 packs I think. I tend to go overboard on the quantities and these freeze really well if you have leftovers. Just absolutely make sure you drain the liquid out of the beans. And buy the Original. The ones that don't have the extra flavor stuff.

Usually 1 onion.

1 green pepper

About 1/2 cup of the brown sugar or so

My dry rub usually 5 or 6 tablespoons

BBQ sauce is probably 1/2 cup or so

Mustard is 3 or 4 good squirts

Garlic powder maybe 5 or 6 tablespoons. 

You will know when it is right.  Just remember - the deliciousness is dripping in from your pork cooking on the grates above. They will drip a lot of good looking fat. When you pull these off and stir em up, the women at your party will literally slather these all over their nips and beg you to lick them off.

That's a lot of garlic powder.  Still, I'm on board.  I love garlicy goodness.,

 
Yeah. It may be less than that. I kind of eye ball most of these ingredients. When it "looks" right I know. But those measurements are pretty close.
Regardless, Your beans have now made my rotation.  I want to serve them up saying who here wants some CheifD Nipple Licking Beans.

I would share if I had an exact recipe but I never measure. I just put the soul in the bowl. 

But I do start with a lot of bacon, then sauté the onions and garlic in there, then add them to bush's, with brown sugar, yellow mustard, maybe a touch of ketchup and some molasses. Onion and garlic P as well. I let them simmer down on the stove and then into a foil pan for a trip to the smoker for an hour. If I've already pulled the pork I'll toss some in there too. That will be the case on Sunday.

Reading this, Im feeling like some pulled pork and slaw sandwiches.  Love those.  

http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchen/instant-pot-barbecue-pulled-pork-sandwiches-3649647

I'm going to check out some of those slaws that binky posted.  

OR

been meaning to try this one for awhile 
I have no idea what that "instant pot" thing is the link but I'm making pulled pork in the slow cooker. So easy. I know "lazy man" is popular around here and the idea behind it is good, just too sweet for me. 

 
I don't have anyone coming over, but I'm thinking of doing a brisket. Maybe I'll buy a whole one and carve off the point and just do the flat and leave the point for burnt ends later. That way I can work on my brisket game, enjoy the game/commercials, and have plenty left over for chili. If I invite even just a handful of people over, the brisket will be gone. 

 
Is your super bowl party at the biltmore or something? 
:lol:   Naw... also smoking some chickens and pulling them for BBQ style sammiches, and smoking a pork belly. Slaw, my bottom-shelf pasta salad, etc... the usual. 

EDIT: 
Should probably clarify "bottom shelf pasta salad" was my attempt to make a cheap/simple but tasty side for cookouts/etc that's as cheap/easy as possible. 

1lb Kroger Brand Rotini Pasta
1 Bottle Kroger Zesty Italian Dressing 
1/2 Cup Kroger brand powdered parmesan (or more, to taste)
1 cup raisins
1/2 Red Onion (julienned)
1 Tbsp dried italian seasoning
1/4 cup almond slivers (optional.. if you're feeling fancy) 

The only "work" is boiling the pasta and 30 seconds of knife work on the red onion. Costs about $5-6 to make. Gets surprisingly rave reviews for a bunch of cheap #### dumped in a bowl.

Shredded beef chili, chicken wings both hot and teriyaki, fresh vegetables to go with the wings, Knob Creek for some sipping and Sam Adams light for some drinking.

What kind of savage puts raisins in a pasta salad? :loco:

 
why not steam?

beer & old bay
Mostly due to time.  I've got a lot of things I need to get done and the abundance and affordability of crab that's already been boiled in salt water makes it much easier to just buy them that way.  If I was on the coast and we were fishing for crab and doing a big crab fest, I'd cook 'em in beer and Tony's (I'm from the south, we are Tony's disciples, Old Bay is for Yanks). :)

I used to use sundried tomatoes, but in "Cheap-ifying it" I switched to raisins. It's not traditional but the sweet chewy component is a nice contrast to the acidic profile of the rest of the dish. Feel free to leave them out if you'd like, but it gets a lot of compliments (along with the almond slivers). :shrug:

:goodposting:  Tony's > Old Bay.... and this is from a yank. I can admit we got that one wrong. 
 

 
Well my plan was to do a garlic and herb pork tenderloin and just remembered that I bought a 4 bone rib roast on sale after Christmas to cook for the Super Bowl. Looks like I'm going to do both. After reading the thread I'm adding baked beans to the menu along with my wife's scratch mashed potatoes, her homemade buttermilk biscuits and some instant pot Italian cut green beans. I found some leftover brisket in the freezer that I'm going to add to the baked beans.  I may make a cheesecake for dessert. 

 
Heading to a buddy's house where there will be a ton of food. Taking some candied bacon with me. Made it last year and took it to another party and it was a huge hit.
