Super Bowl Sunday is almost here! And whether you’re planning to stay glued to each play of the Big Game, tune in for the halftime show and big-budget, best-in-advertising commercials, or just enjoy gathering with friends and family — you’ll need to stay fed during the upcoming extravaganza at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara.
To help, we’ve asked some of our favorite Bay Area chefs and culinary leaders to share their Super Bowl recipes. Violet Witchel, a San Francisco-based culinary influencer known as Dense Bean Salad Girl, offered up her recipe for Pepperoncini Shallot Deviled Eggs. Oakland’s Tanya Holland shared her recipe for Dominican Pork Guisado — plus some wine pairing tips — perfect for honoring the Caribbean background of this year’s halftime performer, Puerto Rican megastar Bad Bunny.
And while we couldn’t get California-rooted Julia Child to share a Super Bowl recipe (she died in 2004), we tracked down the next-best thing we could: the recipe for a homey vegetarian recipe for Black Bean Chili from Cafe Beaujolais, via chef Julian Lopez. It’s said Child once ordered — and subsequently, made famous — the dish when she visited the Mendocino restaurant in the 1980s. And what’s a more satisfying game day meal than a hearty bowl of chili?
