Now that the much anticipated football season is in full swing, it’s a dazzling opportunity to gather family and friends for a little tailgating (MBB-style!). Of course, you don’t have to be a pig-skin devotee to indulge in buffalo chicken wings! The illustrious golden key to a successful football watching party? Invite those who are near and dear, and set up the game in one room and the nibbles in the other – serious fans will be able to view the all-star plays, while the rest of attendees can catch up over a delicious spread.

Whether you and a house full of fans are rooting for the Bears or the Broncos, cheer-worthy sustenance is a must, and so I’ve created a savory and sweet menu of appetizers that’s sure to be a touchdown with your guests. Enjoy!
