This Sunday is football's biggest game and a local radio station has coined it as "the biggest Sunday of the year." While we believe that this is up for debate (hello Easter and the occasional Sunday Christmas), it definitely is a big day for sports fans and food lovers alike. Whether you lean towards chicken wings, pulled pork or simply chips and dip, honey is the one ingredient that takes your game day to the next level!
Honey is an all-natural sweetener, we all know that, but did you know that honey also serves as an emulsifier in marinades, sauces and dips, and a humectant, helping you lock in all the delicious natural juices ensuring moist, tender meat? That's right; honey is the single ingredient that spans your entire menu, ensuring that your game day party will win in the good eats department.
Last year we put together a great list of favorite honey recipes for the big game from our honey.com database (which you will find here), so this year we thought we would take the fun to the people and have pulled for you our list of favorite game day recipes from around the internet:
