Superbowl Party III: A New Hope

In a rare monomedia* post to K&ADFS, I'd like to declare my latest Superbowl party a rousing success. Here's the menu, with first, second, and 3rd place honors:

Chili Pie (ineligible)
Frickles
Belgian Frites w/ spicy mayo- 2nd
Japanese Yam Fries
Fried Crawfish (actually just shrimp)
Buffalo Wings - 1st
Falafel - 3rd
Beef short ribs (ineligible)
Memphis style pork ribs (ineligible)

The wings are simple: wingette pieces fried for 10 minutes at 350 degrees, then smothered in wing sauce (1/2 bottle of Frank's Red Hot and a quarter stick of butter simmered in a saucepan) with celery & carrot sticks, and bleu cheese. I'm unfortunately not at liberty to divulge the bleu cheese recipe that I use, as it was given to me in confidence. Suffice it to say that buying Wishbone dressing won't cut it. Find a recipe that incorporates almost equal parts mayo and sour cream, calls for real bleu cheese crumble, and take it from there.

We've covered the Belgian frites naught but two episodes ago, and the falafel is easy when you find a dry mix, so I'll open it up to comments at this point.







*Just text.
