Big Game Homegating Snack Hack Ideas to Feed a Crowd

January 18, 2017 Amy 1 Comment

This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Tyson Foods, Inc. All opinions are entirely my own.

Having people over for the Big Game of the year can be a little intimidating. What are you going to prepare to feed all these people? I like to keep things simple when  throwing a party with amazing finger food. That way people can graze on all the food and try a little bit of everything at the party.

Homegating Food

Tyson Any'tizers

Tyson® Any’tizers® makes homegating with friends easy. There are so many flavor options to choose from. You are sure to find the best combination for your guests. When selecting my options at Kroger in the frozen food section, I wanted traditional wings and something for the kids and adults alike to enjoy. So I like to go for Buffalo, Chicken Fingers and Chicken Bites. Then you can WOW them with amazing dipping sauces they won’t forget. I picked up some Wright® Brand Bacon for my dip, and Ball Park® Beef Franks for the kids.

Big Game Party Essentials

Game Day Snack Hack

If you are not a fan of the teams playing, it is best to stick with a neutral football theme. Keep with the colors green, black and white to keep things neutral, but festive. I like having fun straws like black and white to match the referee’s uniforms. A green table cloth to act as the field to bring the football game day idea all together. Keep the food simple with finger food, so everyone can enjoy a little of everything during the game.

Homegating Snack Hack

There are a couple of amazing dipping sauces I came up with to make this the most memorable Game Day ever! These snack hacks are so easy to add, and have tons of flavor without much fuss for your party.

Wright Bacon

Look how thick the Wright Brand Bacon is. Perfect for the bacon in this recipe. Bacon adds a ton of flavor to anything. You just can’t go wrong with bacon.

Bacon Ranch Feta Dip

Ranch Bacon Feta Dip 3

1 cup plain yogurt

2 slices Wright Brand Bacon

1/4 cup feta cheese crumbled

Measure all the ingredients out and stir together. It is best to make this about an hour before the party to let the flavors meld together.

Pro Tip: Cook all the bacon at once. Freeze the remaining bacon and store in the freezer. Simply take out a slice at a time and warm as needed or use in additional recipes.

Creamy Teriyaki Dip

Creamy Teriyaki Dip

1 cup plain yogurt

1 tablespoon teriyaki sauce

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1/4 teaspoon ginger

1/4 garlic salt

Measure all the ingredients out and stir together. It is best to make this about an hour before the party to let the flavors meld together.

snack hacks for a big crowd

I can’t wait to make this Bacon Feta Dip again. This was such a huge hit at the party and pairs wonderfully with the spicy Buffalo wings. The Creamy Teriyaki Dip is great with the chicken fingers and the chicken bites. The ginger in the Teriyaki Dip gives it a true Asian taste that is a definite crowd pleaser.

    These dips look so good! I’m not a fan of ranch on my wings, so I look forward to trying the bacon feta dip!
