In honor of the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl, how about we share our favorite Cheez-It inspired recipes for game food. Extra points if your have a Cheez-It cocktail recipe.

I'll start with homemade Cheez-Its...

Ingredients​

  • 8 ounces (226.8 g) extra sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • ¼ cup (56.75 g) unsalted butter, at room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup (125 g) all-purpose flour
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons ice water

Instructions​

  • In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment, mix the cheese, butter, and salt on low speed until combined. Add the flour and mix on low until pebbly. Slowly add 2 tablespoons of the water and mix as the dough forms a ball. If needed, add the additional tablespoon of water a little at a time until the dough forms. Pat the dough into a disk, wrap with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 1 hour.
  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Divide the dough into two pieces and roll each into a very thin 10x12-inch rectangle (the dough should be no more than ⅛-inch high). Using a fluted pastry wheel, cut the rectangles into 1-inch squares, then transfer them to the baking sheets.

  • Bake for 15 to 17 minutes, or until puffed and browning at the edges. Immediately move the crackers to wire racks to cool completely, then store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Agree! I like mine with Tabasco too and a cold beer. This one will be on my game table.
I love homemade chili. Actually just made a pot a few weeks ago but I’ve never thought to put Tabasco in it, but I’m certainly gonna try that for game day

Smoked Pork Loin Sliders with North Alabama White Sauce and Food City's Famous Dave's "Devil's Spit" pickles (sweet beginning, hot ending). White sauce: Duke's mayo, apple cider vinegar, horseradish, cayenne pepper, salt, black pepper, and a splash of lemon juice.

White sauce sounds interesting. I'll give a try.
