Cheesy Ideas for the Big Game

When it comes to getting together for the Big Game the sports fans are there to cheer on their favorite team (or their numbers in the office pool!) while others are there for the goofy ads and halftime show.  One thing everyone agrees on? No matter how you feel about watching football, everyone loves the super snack spread!  Old Croc’s crowd-pleasing, award winning cheddars and spreadable cheeses make the perfect addition to your menu.  Here are some fun ideas for you from all the major game day “food groups”!

Snack Platters and Cheese Boards

Everyone loves a big shareable snack platter and Old Croc makes it easy to put them together!  Add some of our adorable Croc Bites for perfectly portioned nibbles while Old Croc’s convenient, pre-sliced variety pack lets everyone enjoy a mix of four delicious flavors of our Australian Aged Cheddar.  All the work is done for you so you get to enjoy the game too while your guests choose from a mix of our Medium Cheddar, Bacon & Jalapeno, Chipotle & Onion, and Roasted Garlic & Herb each with its own unique bold flavor. Just add crackers and you’re ready to go.

Pizza

It wouldn’t be gameday without pizza! Skip the standard delivery and try one of our unique, party-perfect versions instead.  Our Cheddar Stromboli Pizza combines two pizza parlor classics in a standout dish that’s sure to wow. Or go for fun topping twists like our white Cheddar and Artichoke Pizza or Grilled BBQ Chicken and Cheddar Pizza to really treat your guests.

Mini Burgers

Everyone loves a good burger at a tailgate and Old Croc cheddars make the perfect, deliciously meltable topping.  For a party try one of our easy to eat, easy to serve, bite sized versions like superfun stuffed Cheeseburger Bombs, our adorable Bacon Jalapeno Cheeseburger Tot Cups or Crispy Croc Slders. Everyone gets their burger fix but still has room for the rest of the spread.

Tex Mex

Yummy, cheesy topped Tex Mex dishes and football practically go hand in hand.  Try one of our fun takes on your faves like our cheese filled Crocamole paired with Cheddary Crockadillas.  Instead of typical deep fried jalapeno poppers go for our colorful Smoked and Sharp Cheddar Stuffed Mini Peppers. They’re easy to assemble ahead of time too.

Dips

Party dips are always a fan favorite and Old Croc cheddar adds bold flavor that will make you the game day snacks MVP!  Try one of our delicious Sharp Cheddar Game Day Dips like Carne Asada Street Taco Dip or warm New England Lobster Dip. Instead of making the same-old, standard, sour cream onion dip Old Croc helps you take things up a notch with our Warm Caramelized Onion and Bacon version.  Just add chips and get ready to dig in.

Potato Skins

There’s nothing like a cold beer and enjoying some gooey, cheesy potato skins for happy hour or watching your favorite sports.  Old Croc’s incredible variety of cheddar cheeses add amazing flavor you won’t get at your neighborhood watering hole.  Try our classic Cheddary Tater Skins, our best of both worlds Tex Mex Twice Baked Sweet Potatoes or skip the knife and fork with the cutest, bite sized Smokin Bacon Tater Wedges.

No matter how you and your guests feel about the Big Game – Old Croc Cheddar Cheeses will make your snack spread something to cheer about!
