Well, the greasy pans are soaking in the sink, the beer bottles have been recycled and I'm down two bottles of bourbon, which can only mean my annual Super Bowl party is over. For those anxiously awaiting the results of the food contest, here you go.
1. Best Football reference: A sheet cake in the shape of Peyton Manning, decorated with red splotches to represent the bloodshed some of the Pats fans had hoped would be unleashed on Manning. Oh well.
2. Tastiest: A trio of ball shaped yummies called "Freeballin'", consisting of Spam balls (http://new.spam.com/eatspam/contest_recipe.aspx?recipeid=262), the afore mentioned Jimmy Dean Sausage Balls (http://www.jimmydean.com/recipes/recipe.asp?recipeID=16), and olive balls (jumbo olives wrapped in a cheese spread/flour mix- it's a good one) mmm....balls.
3. Most Likely to cause gas: Cincinnati Chili. For those not familiar, it's more of a casserole than a soup . (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cincinnati_chili)
4. MVP- This year's contest was incredibly close, and in fact the MVP winner came close to winning every other category except football reference. But, in true story-book fashion, he came back to win it all: The Chicago Dog. Unlike it's football team namesake, the Chicago dog is a true winner and doesn't choke (unless you try to eat it all at once). Not just an ordinary hot dog, it has a special set of rules. For more info, try this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chicago-style_hot_dog
I guess those wikipedia people like to eat quite a bit during the Super Bowl, too.
Until next year, sports fans. Go Pats!
