The 51st Super Bowl is just days away! This Sunday, the Patriots and Falcons will face off at NRG Stadium in Houston, Texas. The real question is, are you going to a Super Bowl party to actually watch the game or to indulge in savory, mouthwatering, finger licking good comfort food? We’re going for the food, of course.
