What's on the menu for Sunday's party?

[ex10]

Yes, in true red, white, and blue American tradition, we are having a Super Bowl Party. Funny thing is, my family will be the only Americans at the party. Everybody else will be Brits. (I didn't plan it that way exactly, just how it turned out. Long story. --> )

But, anyway, I thought it would be a great opportunity to show off the finest in Amercian cuisine, so we are smoking a pork shoulder, and are gonna have real true, bona-fide barbeque. (Memphis style, that is.) We'll pull the meat after it's done smoking and serve it with mustard slaw, beans, and possibly some chips thrown in for good measure. And of course, plenty of Coors and Corona with lime, the beers of choice in our crowd.

For appetizers, I'm gonna serve some stuffed jalapenos and of course, hot wings.

So what is on your menu for Sunday???? Inquiring minds want to know.

How do you want your eggs?

Can we play Van Halen while the game is on?

[ex10]

Actually, firebee, I was thinking more along the lines of John Lee Hooker. No?

And possibly some BB King thrown in for good measure?

[firebee]

Just put on a John Lee search at Kaaza

At least we could do Aerosmith...........yes?

[Mark Sanguinetti]

Thanks Kathy:

Please pass me some of the Picante Salsa. I hear it is hot just like the Raiders.

[ChattyKathy]

Your welcome Mark. Wonder who will be crying in their soup come Sunday night? Had to get some type of food into this post. :D-->

[bowtwi]

I'm fixing a huge hot sub sandwich - pepperoni, ham, swiss & mozzarella. It's a meal in itself.

Taco dip and tortilla chips (the bite sized ones) for the appetizer. PACE Picante sauce, by the way. :P-->

Diet Pepsi/Amber Bach

GO BUCS!

Dear Ex:

The food at your party sounds great. I made a pork shoulder for last Sunday's game.

I am a bit shocked that British people will drink coors and corona. The UK has a great tradition of brewing and those beers just don't make the grade.

Actually, now that you mention it, it's my American friends who drink Coors and Corona. So what would you suggest, EW?

[E. W. Bullinger]

Dear Ex:

Since it is the Super Bowl you really should have an American beer. If you root for the Raiders you could serve something from Anchor Brewing which is based in San Fran. They make a great brew called "Steam Beer". It is pricy, but good.

If you go bonkers for the Bucks then I don't want to talk to you. They killed our beloved Eagles. I think there are a few micro-breweries in Fla so just see what they have.

For my regular beer I drink a local brewery's offering. They make a good and reasonably priced ale. You could always ask your friends what they drink at home.

Hope this has been helpful.

Is this an acceptable meal for the Super Bowl

Of course the appropriate beverages

[ex10]

Firebee,

Looks scumptous! I think I'll pass on the keg, though. Although around here, lots of people rent Marguarita machines for their parties. ;)-->

EW,

Yeah, you're right about the American Beer. I think I'll try some Shiner Bock, a Texas dark beer. :)--> Thanks.

[firebee]

Okay, here's a cold one jes fer u :D-->

an fer the rest of the guests

HAPPY SUPER BOWL

[Righteous Brother]

When you live in the northwoods, you drink the pride of the northwoods.

This beer is brewed fresh near me. Don't need a "born on" date. We can go to the brewery and buy beer that was bottled that day. Fresher IS better. Mix that with some fresh Rib Eyes, corn on the cob, and cottage fried potatoes.

Go BUCS!

Where is the frozen tundra? I used to live in Michigan, which I now consider to be the frozen tundra. :)-->

Sounds like fun with the big screen tv. That's kinda how I ended up having all Brits here at our house. My 3 brothers and their families were gonna come over as well as my British friends, and they all (the brothers) decided to go to my bachelor brother's house because, you guessed it, he's got the big screen tv. Plus he's got a huge deep fryer (the outdoor kind) so they're gonna make a run to the fish market in Galveston for shrimp.

My British friends don't care much for American football, so they didn't mind that we have a normal tv. They're mainly coming over to hang out and eat anyway.

If we still lived in Michigan, we would definitely be cooking brats, and probably drinking Molson beer.

Hope everyone has a good time! Oh, and dare I say it? but I don't too much care who wins, not being a football fan myself. :D-->

Ducking,
