THIS POST MAY CONTAIN AFFILIATE LINKS. I MAY EARN FROM QUALIFYING PURCHASES.

Even though our favorite home team, the Falcons won’t be going to the Big Game….nor will the Texans, we’ll still enjoy some classic Big Game munchies! Spicy, salty, a little sweet and all delicious and savory!

I have to admit, buffalo/hot sauce is my favorite junk. I just can’t go wrong with it (although, admittedly, I don’t care for bleu cheese!)

Boar’s Head is making it easy this year by providing recipes for the Big Game using Boar’s Head premium deli meats and cheeses. Here are four that look super tasty for me from Boar’s Head.
