& its really hard to tell what we'll need
there are going to be 15 people (4 boys & 11 girls so far) and i have chips & dip, wings, and sandwhiches and soda on the list
but does anyone know:
how many wings to order?
how much soda to get?
what other food should i bring?
anything else i should do for the party?
any tips would be great!!
(its my first time having a superbowl party)
thank you!
Answers:
4 dudes 11 chicks, can i come! all depends what the people are like (eating habits). avg about 4-6 wings per person. are you only drinking soda? if so then 6-8 btls. find a local deli that will make a "long" sub for 15 people (they wiil know how much to make). pizza is always perfect as well as nachos (simply with salsa or get facy and top with cheese chili etc). make sure to get something sweet as well for the ladies. get an assorted cheese cake from the market. don't buy too much, get some frozen food as back up. if you want better ideas email me, i cater parties.
I would order three wings per person...when you for sure know how many are coming. Soda should be two sodas per person plus another dozen cans or so, just in case. I would also have bottled water available. Maybe some chocolate chip cookies. After all that spice and salt, people tend to crave something sweet. And the Super Bowl makes for a long day!!
go to costco and buy the big pack of everything...the worse that can happen is leftovers
If that is all the food you will have for that many people for 4 or 5 hours, you will need plenty of it. Calculate 2 sandwiches per person, 4 wings per person, two bags of chips, or two different kinds of chips, 3 cans of soda or 4 two liter bottles. If you want more variety, easy and cheap stuff to buy are cookies, pretzels, veggie trays at the grocery store.
it is hard to tell with kids how much of anything that you will need. I would get approximately 6 wings per person so that's 90, might get 100 just in case. As for soda, buy the big bottles and pick up three different flavors, probably 2 of each flavor. Cheese and pepperoni, or summer sausage with crackers. You could decorate with the colors of the kids favorite team. Make sure that you get paper plates, cups, bowls, table clothes, napkins, and plastic forks, knives and spoons. It will save alot of clean up after the party. You could also make cupcakes with the frosting being the colors of the two teams.
How about potato salad, etc. to go with the wings and sandwiches? Maybe lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers and celery?
Figure 15 bottles of soda (The Superbowl is long) people will be thirsty
I'd get about 75 to 100 wings
The sandwiches depend on what kind with how much stuff you're getting. You can phone a deli dept. and ask how much for 15 + people.
You will want at least 2 bags of hotwings, (like from a warehouse store) they are easiest if you line a crock pot with foil, then you don't have to "cook" them. You can order a few large pizzas, they will probably have a deal at your local pizza place. As for soda have at least 2 2liters of diet (all the girls) and 2 or 3 other flavors as well. Don't forget ice. You could also have chips and salsa which are really easy. If you are feeling up to it you could make a bean layer dip for the chips as well. Have fun.
Atleast 40 wings
Coctail weenies wrapped in the pillsbury dough are always popular at football parties
Get 7-10 two liters
Paper plates, napkins, plastic silverware, and plastic cups
Make a small dessert tray w/ cut up brownies, min cookies, etc for the people that have a sweet tooth.
Her are some great super bowl party food for your guest.
5 doz wings with dipping sauce and celery sticks
4 doz pigs in blanket with a dipping sauce
Spicy Buffalo Onion Rings and Blue Cheese Dip
Spinach dip with tortilla chips
Crabbies
Bite size sandwiches
2 cases soda
1 case water
You can even have crab cakes
Are you planning on making these yourself, if you are, I can send you recipes and a shopping list.
Or you can buy some ready made and make some yourself depending on your schedule
chili is a good idea...mini meatballs with little sub rolls, and pigs in a blanket.....soooo good.
then do something corny like make little football cookies or something!
Have hosted superbowl parties for 13 years, and these people have lost thier minds. Count on each person eating about 12 to 15 wings, cuz everytime they walk by the table they will grab one. And make chili, a BIG pot, they want chili. And chips and salsa and cheese dip. And have a TON of soda and juice and if they are legal a bunch of beer and liquor. make dips and have things to go into the dips. OH and have celery and BC, you cannot have wings without it. No one but me that answered you has ever had a SB party, do it right sista.....BUY ALOT of food!!!!!!!!!!!!
