For some, their favorite part of Super Bowl Sunday is the actual game, for others it’s the commercials, or the Super Bowl parties, but pretty much everyone can agree the food is a highlight of the day. There are the classic foods every Super Bowl party needs, chips, dips, wings and soda, but if you are like me, you like a party to be themed as well.
If you want to make sure your Super Bowl Sunday has food reflective of the teams playing, don’t worry, I have you covered.
I scoured the internet (so you don’t have to) to find some of the best and most unique recipes from Cincinnati and Los Angeles as the Rams and the Bengals clash in Super Bowl 56.
- Cheese coneys, which is a hot dog covered in chili, mustard, onions, and cheese is one of their most popular dishes. You can also make their 3-ways, spaghetti topped with chili and cheese, 4-ways which add either beans or onions and 5-ways, which adds both beans and onions.
- Goetta:
The German sausage is a very Cincinnati dish. The sausage combines pork, beef and spices. - Beer:
Breweries and Oktoberfest are popular in the Queen City, so if you are of legal age, pouring a beer would be on theme for Cincy. Cincinnati’s favorite beer of 2021 is the Bohemian Special Brew from Geo. Wiedemann Brewing Company or “Wiedemann’s Fine Beer.”
- Buckeye candy:
Buckeye candy, popular in Ohio, is peanut butter fudge dipped in dark chocolate. Here is a recipe for the dessert. - Ohio state foods:
Sugar cookies are their state cookie, their state fruit is the tomato and their state beverage is tomato juice. If you want a touch of OH you can add any of these, though I don’t know how well tomato juice on its on will go over with guests. A Bloody Mary would be a more accepted way to serve up the beverage.
