Countdown to Game Day: Cheese Curds Recipe

Even though we’re not really ready to talk about the last Cardinals game, we are excited to start the countdown for the big game next Sunday with a great cheese curds recipe. It’s a great time to get friends and family together for a fun day of football and oh-so-many snacks! Since we don’t have a dog in this fight, it will make game watching a more relaxed affair.

The game tends to be an all day event, with the excitement building before the game starts to the start of the game and then half-time. Whether you will watch to get a first look at the great commercials, to enjoy the halftime show or for the love of the game you will get hungry. Leading up to the big day we will post a perfect snack food to enjoy alone or to share at your viewing party.

Up first is Two Brothers Tap House & Brewery who have shared their Beer Battered Cheese Curds recipe. I enjoyed these last year and I can vouch that they are perfectly seasoned and crispy with that telltale squeak. Your guests just might forget about the game once you bring these out!
