Back when we had our Superbowl party a few weeks ago, this is the thread I made for all the food we cooked and ate.
Get a dribble towel, you're gonna need it.
***Official Super Bowl Party Vittles Thread***
Me and the rest of the Goonies are gonna suck us down some fine fixin's here in about 4 hours.
Here's what's on the menu at Chez Jay:
We got us some Prawns. And I do mean Prawns with a capital "P". I think these guys used to pretend they were lobsters in their former life.

They are getting skewered (oh don't you wish that was you Kelly!!) with some pineapple. They are then seasoned and will be basted while on the grill with pineapple juice, fresh skwezed lime juice and some premium, fresh Florida Juice Orange juice.



Also soaking here we have a few pounds of whole chicken wings in a buttermilk/brine/bath. They will have a special seasoning added and then grilled as well.

Then in this corner we have a whole gaggle of porterhouse steaks. They have been soaking for a day in a combo of beef broth, worchesterchestershire sauce, steak dust, sea salt, and cracked pepper. Medium rare is what they will end up being.

Then in the ole crock-o-shite pot we have queso blanco, some of that new Hormel Chili Masters "Roasted Tomato Chili" and some fresh tomatoes, garlic and jalapeno peppers that were roasted. This will be the dip portion of the "chips-n-dip" course.

And of course, the money shot.

Here is an update at almost 3:00pm, about time to fire up the charcoal grill:
Prawns chilling out waiting for the grill.

Steaks are out of the marinade/broth.

I decided to throw together one more dish for tonight. In the iron skillet I have red onions and some country ham.

I then deglazed the pan with some beef broth. And I am going to let it simmer and reduce down.


I will use this as a flavoring agent in my "Dirty Dirty Mashed Potatoes".
