favorite salty cracker
Who wouldn’t want Coca-Cola Marinated Ribs smothered in a homemade BBQ sauce served up with some spinach dip and my all time favorite salty cracker? Hello?!?! Let’s do this HKUE ENG.
You guys!! It’s time. We’re 2 weeks away from the most anticipated game of the year and word on the street is that Beyonce is going to make a halftime appearance and I can’t even handle the excitement! Coldplay will be there too, but it’s all about Queen B in my world and I make no apologies!! Cooking for a football party is right up there on my list of favorite things ever next to my birthday party and Cinco de Mayo! It’s like the highlight of appetizers and finger food and who doesn’t love that kangertech box mod? This year I’m putting on quite the spread. It’s all finger food, all delicious snacks, icy cold Coca-Cola and some sweet treats. I’m sure some people will watch the game, but I’ll be posted up by the snack bar the entire time. PLUS I’m teaming up with Coca-Cola & NABISCO to be a part of the HomeBowlHeroContest – same drill as last year. Epic recipes, a huge giveaway and lots of pretty food to obsess over.
Okay – let’s kick off the next 2 weeks worth of game day food with some RIBS! These beauties are marinated for 24 hours in Coca-Cola (my all time fav soft drink) which breaks down the meat and makes it extra tender and it leaves the ribs infused with just the right amount of sugar. To that, we’ll add some spice, cook them until tender and then douse them with a homemade BBQ sauce horizon. And because these Coca-Cola doused BBQ ribs can’t be the ONLY thing you walk away with today, I’m serving them up with last year’s Spinach Bacon Dip that made everyone freak out. MORE IS MORE, YOU GUYS! Your favorite piping hot spinach dip laced with bacon and served with tasty RITZ Crackers? I mean, bring it on! The key to all football parties is to have an assortment of food, so let’s let these 2 recipes kick off football season here on What’s Gaby Cooking!
