Counting Down to Super Bowl Sunday!

In less than two weeks the U.S. Bank Stadium in Minneapolis will fill to capacity as it hosts the 2018 Super Bowl! Fans rooting for the New England Patriots and the Philadelphia Eagles will gather to watch this exciting football event unfold. Justin Timberlake will light up the half-time show and fans around the country will gather around television screens to cheer on their favorite team.

Last year the Super Bowl drew almost 112 MILLION viewers! People gathered in homes, bars, restaurants, and even libraries to watch the game. According to Shape Magazine, an estimated 50 million cases of beer will be consumed alongside 30 million pounds of chips, popcorn, and nuts. And of course pizza. Lots of pizza. If you're headed to a watch party or hosting your own, we've got some great recipes to share to make your Super Bowl Sunday rock. 

Try Spicy Touch Down Chili from Taste of Home to please hungry fans. In addition to traditional beans and ground beef, this hearty chili contains ground pork sausage and crumbled bacon for added savory flavors. 

Dress up a classic ballpark frank with some of the Spicy TouchDown Chili or dress it up in a pretzel roll as suggested by Food and Wine. From topping with avocado to wasabi there are several ways to satisfy everyone's taste. 

Did you know that the Super Bowl is also the largest pizza consumption day of the year? Experts caution for excessive wait times on delivery so you may consider baking your favorite pie at home. Check out this Homemade Pizza recipe from Taste of Home and be sure to bake it on your favorite Range Kleen Pizza Pan. 

You'll need a little dip to accompany all of those crunchy snacks. For a twist on traditional game-day dips with Skillet Bread Spinach Artichoke Dip,  Baked Goat Cheese dip or a Loaded Baked Potato Dip. 

Wishing you a happy Super Bowl Sunday from everyone at Range Kleen!
