Game Day Bites with an Old Mill Twist

A Game Day Spread Inspired by Super Bowl LIX

As Super Bowl LIX looms on the horizon, we’re thinking of crafting the perfect Game Day Snack Stadium! The Kansas City Chiefs and Philadelphia Eagles are converging on the City of New Orleans in the Caesars Superdome, and that’s got us craving all kinds of snacks to have on hand, all with an Old Mill twist of course.

Kansas City BBQ: Sweet, Sticky, and Slow-Roasted

Looking at Kansas City, what comes to mind is a classic Kansas City BBQ, you know the kind with sticky, sweet, slow-roasted ribs with a bowl of creamy cole slaw on the side. Well, we like to think our Southern Style BBQ Sauce is even better, but we know we’re pretty partial to it.

Philadelphia Favorites: Cheesesteak Sliders & Soft Pretzels

If you go to Philadelphia you’ll likely grab a soft pretzel and an iconic cheesesteak. So we’re whipping up some Sourdough Cheesesteak Sliders.

What’s that, well it’s a few slices of our fresh Sourdough Bread, sandwiched with some thinly sliced beefsteak that’s covered in a slathering of our Bacon Cheddar Cheese Spread and a spoonful of our Vidalia Onion Relish with Bell Peppers.

Then it’s all lightly grilled and cut into quarters. Lay ‘em out alongside soft pretzel bites, which you can make from our Garlic Parmesan Roll recipe and instead of shaping into rolls, roll the dough out to half an inch thick and cut into squares, then drop them into a pot of boiling water with baking soda in it.

When they float, pull them out and spread them onto a baking sheet, brush with melted butter and generously salt them. Then bake as directed for the rolls.

When they’re golden brown, take them from the oven and toss in the garlic parmesan butter and serve with some Garlic & Herb Spread Dip to dunk them in.

A Taste of New Orleans: Creole-Spiced Nuts & Spicy Chicken Sliders

A trip to the Big Easy should be easy enough to pull together in our Snack Stadium with some nuts toasted and seasoned with our Zesty Rib Rub. The garlic, paprika, cayenne, and onion bring creole flavor to a snack you can’t stop snacking. Our Spicy Chicken Biscuit Sliders (recipe below) blend the perfect combination of spice from the cayenne, smokiness from the chili powder, and a bite of good ole cajun charm with some chow chow, all held together in the comfort of a Southern Biscuit. See, wasn’t that easy!

Chili & Cornbread: The Ultimate Game Day Duo

And no football party is complete without some chili and cornbread! Look how simple it is to make a pot of Chili with our Chili Starter, large enough for a crowd. And, our Chili Starter seasoning mix makes an incredible dip too, so we’ll need to grab 2 packs.
