What beverages pair well with a Football Charcuterie Board?

Beer, soda, and sports-themed cocktails would go great with this snack board but I also love to have something light like "Mint to Be" Mojito Bar.

Tips for keeping the snacks and dips fresh during the game?

Use small bowls for dips and refill them as needed. Keep the board in a cool place or use ice packs underneath to maintain freshness.

What other foods can be added to the snack board?

In addition to the wings, you can add whatever finger foods and appetizers that you like. I love adding things like mozzarella sticks, potato skins, french fries, and pretzels. You can also add things like pepperoni, deli meats, and even hot dogs. Add a side of nacho dip and onion dip to complete the board.

Where can I find a charcuterie board?

I found this football board at Hobby Lobby but there are regular charcuterie boards at Walmart, Target, TJ Max, Home Goods, and online at stores like Amazon.com. The trays come in all different sizes and shapes. They are also in different materials so you can find exactly what you are looking for depending on how often you entertain and what you are going to use them for.

What other types of boards can be used for a sports party?

There are so many different types of boards to do. You could do a hamburger board with a condiment board on the side. Also, you can do an appetizer-only board. Another idea is to do a chips and dip board too which would work really well.

I don’t have a Sam’s membership or a Sam’s nearby, what type of chicken can I use instead?

It's ok if you don't have a Sam's club. All of the big club stores have something similar. You can also get fresh chicken tenders from your local grocery deli or use frozen breaded chicken tenders. Another idea is to use smaller bite size chicken, like the kind you get from catering from Chick Fila to add to your board.
