Popular Super Bowl Foods
There’s nothing like getting family and friends together to gather around the T.V. on Super Bowl Sunday! Whether you’re there for the game, the halftime show, or the food, the Super Bowl is one of the few times every year that everyone comes together in one place.
Because everyone is going to be fixated on the T.V. and there are often more people than there are chairs, finger foods are the unofficial food of the Super Bowl. No one wants a sit-down dinner; they want things they can carry on a paper plate or grab and go!
A tasty list of 32+ incredibly easy appetizers to serve up on Super Bowl Sunday!
33 of the Best Appetizers for Super Bowl Sunday
If you are wondering what to eat during the Super Bowl, I've got you covered with a variety that is sure to please. You can also visit my Super Bowl snack page for more great ideas!
If it’s your year to host the viewing party (or you host it every year and need some fresh ideas), check out my list of easy foods for football fanatics!
1. Crack Chicken
A favorite at all my family gatherings, crack chicken is easy to make, versatile, and downright addicting. Cream cheese, bacon, chicken, and ranch come together to make a totally tasty and creamy concoction that can be used in many ways.
The easiest is to use it with chips as a dip! You can also spread it on bread as a sandwich or on mini burger buns as sliders! Best of all, you can set it and forget it in the crock pot.
2. Lil Smokies Pigs In A Blanket
My Lil Smokies pigs in a blanket are super easy to make, and you can make a lot of them. Serve them up with any of your favorite dipping sauces, and watch them disappear!
3. Potato Chips
Rather than plopping a bag of chips on the table, take it one step further and make your own in the air fryer! Homemade potato chips have a taste that far surpasses their pre-packaged counterparts. They are super easy to make; the hardest part is slicing the potatoes. They work great with dips, too!
4. Nachos Supreme
Nachos are a traditional game-day appetizer, and rightfully so! You can make a platter of nachos as large or as small as you need. Offer toppings on the side, or go ahead and pile them on. It’s really up to you and what works for your party!
Sometimes, we offer up the chips and cheese and let everyone build their nachos themselves from a selection of toppings!
5. Cheese & Bacon Turnovers
Cheese, bacon, delicious puff pastry, what could go wrong? These cheese and bacon turnovers are easy to make and great for grabbing and eating on the go.
Melted cheese and salty bacon wrapped up in pastry will be a favorite for all ages.
6. Air Fryer Frozen Chicken Wings
Healthier and quicker than deep-frying, chicken wings cooked in an air fryer are a great option for serving a crowd during the big game! The air fryer makes the skin perfectly crisp without any monitoring on your part.
Whip up an easy wing sauce with Frank’s Red Hot and butter, and use a bag of frozen wings (or a mixture of wings and drumettes) for the ultimate easy app!
7. Charcuterie Board
This list would not be complete without a charcuterie board! The ultimate party snack tray and charcuterie boards are totally trending. Charcuterie companies are popping up all over the place.
Rather than paying a pretty penny to have one made, make your own at home that could rival the professionals! It’s surprisingly easy and has something for everyone to graze on.
8. French Onion Dip
A beloved and classic dip that’s great for chips or veggies, French onion dip makes an appearance at most football parties. All you need to make your own is sour cream, dried minced onions, and seasoning!
It's quick and easy to make, so you can focus on making more apps and sides to add to your Super Bowl Sunday spread.
>>>>See all of my recipes here<<<<
9. Fried Pickles
It’s easy to eat 100 fried pickles, so make a few batches and serve them up with some homemade ranch! Fried pickles are a favorite for all ages.
You can load them onto a plate and mindlessly snack on them while watching the game. Perfectly seasoned breading and tangy pickles dipped in homemade ranch dressing are a match made in heaven!
10. Potato Skins
A slightly heartier app that is equally easy to carry around is potato skins! Everyone loves potatoes, and they’re made even better when turned into crispy vessels for all your favorite potato toppings! They’re good dipped in just about everything.
11. Irish Nachos
You're missing out if you’ve never heard of Irish nachos. Think nachos but made with sliced potatoes instead of chips! What’s not to like?
It’s another easy app that can be dipped, scooped, or topped however you like. Add some crispy bacon, and you’ll have a unique snack that will have everyone talking.
12. Creamy Guacamole
It’s no surprise that guac made this list. A good guacamole and chips are almost a requirement of any Super Bowl party. This recipe makes a smooth, creamy guac with the perfect amount of “zing”! Show off your guac skills to your family and friends.
13. Stuffed Pizza Rollups
Pizza roll-ups are exactly what they sound like. Made with fluffy crescent rolls and stuffed with melted cheese, salami, and pepperoni, these roll-ups are like a high-class hot pocket with twice the flavor!
They aren’t time-consuming to make, and they are easy to carry around.
14. 7 Layer Dip
Once you make a good 7 layer dip, it’s going to be your go-to for all get-togethers. A combination of all your favorite dips and toppings (refried beans, guac, cheese, salsa, tomatoes, cheese, and black olives), 7 layer dip covers all the bases.
It’s visually appealing and easy to put together. Plus, it tastes good, warm or cold!
15. Spinach Artichoke Dip
In my opinion, spinach and artichoke dip is a must-have for the Super Bowl! Many of the other dippable items on this list will taste great dunked into spinach and artichoke dip, too!
You can tell all your guests you made it from scratch with just a few simple ingredients!
16. Buffalo Chicken Dip
Tasty buffalo ranch chicken dip is as easy to make as it is addictive! This fan-favorite snack is perfect for dipping with tortilla chips, crackers, or (my favorite) celery sticks!
I even have a slow-cooker version of this buffalo chicken dip that is just as tasty!
17. Ranch Roasted Potatoes
Skip the dipping sauce entirely with these flavor-packed potatoes! Serve them as a snack and get rave reviews on any occasion!
Their hearty flavor makes them perfect for serving during the Super Bowl!
18. Crab Cakes
I can't resist sharing at least one (or more) seafood appetizer whenever I'm entertaining, and Super Bowl Sunday is no exception! These classic crab cakes are always popular, and they're really easy to make, too!
19. Roasted Bone Marrow
Looking for something different that the guys in your life will enjoy?! Try some roasted bone marrow with crostini or crackers! The rich deliciousness will convince you to treat yourself to bone marrow more often!
20. Sour Cream Chip Dip
When you need a fantastically easy chip dip or party dip that absolutely everyone loves, this is the dip to serve! I don't skip sharing this easy sour cream dip every time I'm hosting game day!
21. Sausage Cream Cheese Dip
This rich, hearty dip is so flavorful that it's no surprise why it's always such a popular party food! If you're only making a few appetizers this Super Bowl, make sure to grab what you need for this amazing chip dip!
22. Antipasto Skewers
Crisp, fresh lettuce, cured meats, creamy cheeses, and briny olives on one convenient skewer. Best of all, they are easy to eat on the couch and won't make a mess!
23. Cheddar Swiss Cheese Fondue
You'll want to gather everyone at the table or countertop in clear view of the TV for this rich and creamy fondue, but it's more than worth it. Skewer some toasted bread, vegetables, or fresh fruit (apples are my favorite) and enjoy the cheesy goodness!
24. Pretzels
Every sporting event sells these jumbo fluffy pretzels, and they're even better made from scratch. I go all out for the Super Bowl and pair them with a big bowl of cheese dip for dunking!
25. Chinese Beef Meatballs
These sticky Chinese meatballs are sweet, savory, and super satisfying. For the big game, I'd forgo the bowl of white rice and serve them skewered with toothpicks instead for easy snacking.
26. Oyster Shooters
The delicate and delicious flavor of raw oysters with all of the fixings in one easy-to-down shot! Add some vodka for the adults wanting to partake in a little good luck game day ritual!
27. Pickle Roll-Ups
These surprisingly simple pickle roll-ups are always a hit with kids and adults. They're also low-carb and gluten-free! These tangy dill pickles wrapped up in cream cheese and deli meat are guaranteed to please everyone!
28. Sausage Cream Cheese Crescent Rolls
Grab some canned crescent rolls and fill them up with cream cheese, cheddar, cooked sausage, roll, and bake! They turn out fluffy and golden with a savory, melted cheese and sausage filling that will keep you coming back for more.
29. Air Fryer Pretzel Bites
All the goodness of a soft pretzel in fluffy bite-sized balls! They're perfect for dipping in honey mustard sauce, ranch, ketchup, mustard, or whatever you like!
30. Hummus
You can whip up a big bowl of this creamy hummus in about 5 minutes. Pair it with crisp carrot or celery sticks, sliced naan bread, chips, or crackers for easy dipping!
31. Cheese Platter
Grab an assortment of your favorite hard and soft cheeses, some crackers, olives, fruit, and nuts, and make a cheese platter! It's perfect for grazing and easily customizable.
32. Tuna Dip
Turn a few cans of tuna into a creamy chip dip that's perfect for watching football. Buttery Ritz crackers are my preferred vessel for this dip, but it's also great on sandwiches or with chips!
33. Boneless Chicken Wings
These crispy and juicy boneless chicken wings should be tossed in your favorite chicken wing sauces and served up hot. I like offering a variety of different flavors, so there's something for everyone!

Best Super Bowl Appetizers: Deviled Ham Dip (+More Great Snack Recipes To Make!)
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups ham (cooked, cubed)
- 3 tablespoon mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoon yellow mustard
- 5 drops hot pepper sauce

- ½ teaspoon paprika
- ¼ teaspoon celery salt
- ¼ cup onion (optional - yellow or white onion, finely chopped or diced)
- ¼ cup celery (optional - finely chopped or diced)
(Note: 2x or 3x only changes the ingredient list)
Instructions
- Use a food processor to grind the cubed 1 ½ cups ham down to a finer consistency. Pulse until the ham reaches a dry ground ham appearance (but not so much that it turns to a paste).
- Transfer the ham to a large mixing bowl and add the 3 tablespoon mayonnaise, 2 teaspoon yellow mustard, 5 drops hot pepper sauce, 1 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon onion powder, ½ teaspoon ground black pepper, ½ teaspoon paprika, and ¼ teaspoon celery salt. *Add optional ingredients if desired.
- Add optional grated onion and celery, then mix all until well combined then cover with plastic cling film and refrigerate to chill before serving.
Notes
- If you can finely chop your cooked ham to a desired consistency, then go right ahead and skip using a food processor to break up the ham.
- A scant pinch of caraway seeds is another optional addition.
