Super Bowl Sunday 2025: Let the Game Day Festivities Begin

Get Ready for Super Bowl 2025: Chiefs vs. Eagles. February 9th is Super Bowl Sunday at the iconic Caesars Superdome in New Orleans.  This year, it's a rematch for the ages as the Kansas City Chiefs take on the Philadelphia Eagles in a battle for football glory. Whether you're a die-hard fan, watching for the commercials, or just here for Kendrick Lamar’s halftime show, one thing’s for sure, Super Bowl Sunday is also about good food.

Super Bowl parties are their own kind of MVP, featuring everything from smoky BBQ and crispy wings to loaded nachos and epic game-day spreads. TheListAreYouOnIt.com has been rounding up all the best party spots, catering options, and specials across the DC area to help you plan the ultimate viewing experience.
Of course, our own Nycci Nellis puts out a legendary Super Bowl spread every year! She’s sharing one of her family’s favorite snacks to enjoy before the halftime feast:

From Nycci Nellis: If you know my husband, David (aka The Beast), you know there’s no prying him away from the family room on Super Bowl Sunday. He’s planted firmly on our couch, eyes glued to the TV, ready to cheer and yell. And, of course, he expects a feast worthy of the big game—which I’m more than happy to deliver. Over the years, we’ve celebrated in every way imaginable: hosting a full-on Super Bowl party or keeping it cozy with just the two of us and our Newfies, Zuki and Duncan. No matter the crowd, one thing remains the same: I’m in the kitchen (with a little help from some stellar local spots—check the list below!).

Now, forget the typical pigs in a blanket. My Pull-Apart Pigs are like the MVP of game-day snacks—a savory, cheesy, gorilla bread that disappears faster than a kickoff return for a touchdown. I promise you, they’ll be the first thing to go from your Super Bowl spread.

-Preheat oven to 400 degrees
-Spray an 8 or 9-inch round springform pan 
-Melt 1 stick of butter, mix in 2+ teaspoons of preferred seasoning,  (I use a mix of oregano, basil, red pepper flakes and garlic powder but you can use za’ataar, Old Bay, etc). Season with salt & pepper 
-Flour a board and roll out a prepared fresh pizza dough and cut into small rectangles (I like the one from Vace, but Trader Joes & Whole Foods have ones that work). 
-Using two packages of cocktail hot dogs, brush one side of dough with butter mixture and roll in one hot dog - like a pig in a blanket - get it?!
-Place pigs in blanket standing upright in prepared  pan. They should be snug. Be careful not to pack them in too much or the dough will not bake.
-Brush top with remaining butter mixture. Place pan on a sheet pan.
-Bake 50-55 minutes
-Cool for 15 minutes, remove from pan
-Serve with warm marinara sauce, and array of spicy mustards or a mix of ketchups.
