Tomorrow is the Super Bowl, The teams are gearing up for the kick off. Rihanna is practicing her half time gig. Now the question - are you ready for your big party tomorrow?
It always pays to do an inventory before any party begins. Do you have enough paper plates and napkins? Is there enough cutlery for the guests? If not then hit your local grocery store, Wal-mart or Target for these. Remember that extra pack of napkins or forks can always come in handy for future parties and cook outs.Another must have are Wet Wipes. Do you have enough for those wing and rib lovers? If you run out of these just wet and fold paper towesl.This also helps cleaning hands and mouths( or if fingers are really messy and sticky a quick trip to the bath or kithen to use hand soap will do). What about if you';re grilling ? Do you have enough tin foil or do you have to run out for an extra roll of foil. Also keep a roll of Saran wrap on the ready in case guests want to take home leftovers.Tonight would be the night to get the kitchen ready too. Get out the air fryer or griddle along with spending the night to create marinades and rubs.Tonight is also a good time to thaw out those wings and ribs and put them from the freezer to the fridge.
The big question is do you have the right amount of food? Are there enough wings? The average person will eay anywhere from six to ten of them. A fan may wind up eating as much as twenty or twenty-five. It's recommended that you have around a whopping two hundred (!!!!!)wings for a party of twenty. If you do run out and your local grocery has run out of them, then think drumsticks. These can be just as tasty , especially if they're air fried. If you're serving ribs, then remember it's usually six per person. That's 120 ribs for party of twenty. if you're barbecuing , remember to have enough charcoal or even wood to create a good steady flam.. What about the sides?Have the salads been made ?If not, do you need such basics as potatoes for potato salad and macaroni for macaroni salad? These are easy pick ups and can be bought even an hour before the do happens. Keep in mind that you can always run out or order in of there's not enough for your gang. Also make sure there's enough beer and ice along with soda and water for the ride home.
A good party depends on the host's preparedness. Make sure you're all set for tomorrow's big game. Be ready for your guests with what they need to enjoy the game.
