cold cuts and raw veggies are always good. those Sausage balls sound amazing.

Eyeball 4th beer.

Cook bacon another 3-5 minutes.

Fuck it, it's the holidays.

Pull bacon out. Best served while warm.

Bacon wrapped asparagus covered in brown sugar and baked. You will be a f'ing rock star.

edit: Or make Doctor Taco's Canadian Bacon but wrapped in asparagus, I'm getting hungry just thinking about it.

 

Its kind of my thing at Xmas to make them.
I fucking love them, kind of bread cheesy sausage goodness. Make them with spicy sausage, make them with regular, hell dip them in ranch or something if you want. Their fucking great.

Nice choices, Cint and Blitz. I like the simple and easy appetizers. I don't have time to make no 5 star Christmas appetizer b.s.

Most delicious stuff on the planet. And the unhealthiest. The gods are cruel.

 

Everybody loves Ritz Bits.

 

Start with 1lb ground beef. Use a skillet and brown the beef.
Then grab a package of Velveeta. Melt it, then stir in the ground beef.
Then throw in 1 can Rotel tomatoes/green peppers. Stir and cover.

If you want it a bit creamier, throw in a bit of milk.

Enjoy with tortilla or pita chips. Delicious.

Jalapeno poppers.
Chips n dip.
Chips n salsa
Hot wings
Pigs in a blanket

 

Just did some jalapeno poppers and finger foods like fruits with brie. Also heating up some nacho cheese and buying a big bag of chips is great too.

Scallops with cream cheese, served in the shell

Crab Parfait

Smoked Salmon Bellinis
