Catering Ideas 2019

For a thematic appetizer, A Joy Wallace Catering in Miami serves football-shaped dates stuffed with three cheeses. The dates are topped with truffle crumble.

Based in New York, Riviera Catering and Events offers a bread bowl filled with sriracha spinach dip for Super Bowl parties. The dish can also be made at home, with easy-to-find ingredients including frozen chopped spinach, cream cheese, and a loaf of sourdough bread.

Since the Super Bowl takes place in chilly February, the Chicago-based Entertaining Company suggests serving a warm snack. The company's broccoli-cheddar soup is served in a copper pot, with garnishes of wild mushrooms and oven-dried tomatoes.

Guacamole is a popular Super Bowl party snack. Based in New York, Elegant Affairs prepares its guacamole parfait-style, layered with salsa and topped with tortilla strips.

Another game-day-appropriate item on Elegant Affairs' menu: Cajun shrimp bites, served with mango red pepper salsa in edible spoons.

For an upscale twist on Buffalo chicken wings, Elegant Affairs provides Buffalo chicken poppers on celery skewers, with dollops of blue cheese dressing.

For a casual, easy-to-share snack, international chain Dean & DeLuca offers bruschetta. The snack pairs crispy garlic toast with coarsely chopped tomatoes, fresh basil, and red-wine vinegar; it's also easy to prepare at home.

Another dish that's ideal for groups is Dean & DeLuca's orzo salad. The vegetarian dish pairs orzo with yellow bell pepper, mint, cucumber, and ricotta.

For a meatier option, Dinosaur Bar-B-Que offers the Pigskin package. With enough food for around 10 guests, the package includes three racks of barbecue ribs. The eatery has locations in cities such as New York and Chicago.

Dinosaur Bar-B-Que's catering packages also include barbecue chicken wings with blue cheese and celery.

Pulled pork for groups is also available at Dinosaur Bar-B-Que.
