It's Time for Superbowl!

Superbowl XLIII is this Sunday, February 1, 2009 at 3 pm pacific time. This year’s matchup will feature the AFC champs, the Pittsburgh Steelers, against the NFC champs, the Arizona Cardinals. This should be an exciting matchup. The underdogs, the Arizona Cardinals, will be going to the Superbowl for the first time. The Pittsburgh Steelers are no strangers to Superbowl, and are going for their sixth Superbowl win. A sixth win would place them in sole possession of the record for most Superbowl wins.
If you’re not into football, do not despair. There are always great commercials to watch. Make sure you pickup your 3D glasses for the Monsters vs. Aliens spot. Sobe is sponsoring this, so they are available at your local supermarket. Just ask. So gather your friends, grab the hot wings and a beer, and settle in for an exciting matchup this Sunday. Are you ready for some football?!
Speaking of hot wings, here’s a great recipe for your Superbowl party, courtesy of Raley’s and Bel Air Markets.

Mudslinger Hot Wings

Ingredients
3 lbs. party wings
Lawrys Garlic Salt, chili powder, cayenne
pepper and black pepper
10 jalapeño peppers, stemmed,
seeded and quartered
6 serrano peppers, stemmed,
seeded and quartered
1 small red chili pepper, stemmed,
seeded and quartered
1 (14-oz.) can chicken broth
1 cup Worcestershire sauce
1 cup Sriracha Hot Pepper Sauce (in our Asian
foods section)
1/2 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup Franks Red Hot Sauce
1/4 cup cayenne pepper
1 tbsp. salt
1 tbsp. pepper
Vegetable oil for frying

Directions
Prep time: 30 minutes, Stand and marinate time: overnight Cook time: 8 to 10 minutes Rinse wings and pat dry; place in a single layer on a large baking sheet. Sprinkle lightly with garlic salt, chili powder, cayenne and black pepper; let stand for 30 minutes, then place in a large resealable plastic bag. Puree remaining ingredients except oil in a blender until smooth. Pour about 2/3 of the mixture over chicken; seal bag and marinate overnight in the refrigerator. Cover and refrigerate remaining sauce. Heat oil to 350°F. Remove wings from sauce and discard bag. Cook in hot oil for 8 to 10 minutes, turning once or twice. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain well on several layers of paper towels. Place reserved sauce in a small saucepan and cook until mixture just comes to a boil. Pour desired amount of sauce over wings and toss well to coat. Serve with blue cheese dip and celery sticks, or toss with crumbled blue cheese, if you like. Makes 12 to 16 servings. Note: Any extra sauce would be great over ribs, steaks or roasts.
