Super Bowl LVIII is just around the corner, and the San Francisco 49ers will face the Kansas City Chiefs at Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas on Sunday, February 11th.

If your bar or restaurant is showing the game, you're probably expecting an influx of traffic on Sunday. In fact, BrewLogix, a technology solutions company, found that when comparing Super Bowl Sundays for the past six years against all other Sundays in the calendar during the same period, Super Bowl Sunday consistently sparked a notable increase in draft beverage sales in craft-centered environments. Craft-on-draft-centric taprooms, bars, and restaurants have historically seen a 7%-10% increase in draft beverage consumption on Super Bowl Sunday.

BrewLogix also found that if your taproom, bar, or restaurant is in the Kansas City or San Francisco markets, you can expect an increase in draft beverage consumption of 25+% as historical data shows team cities experience a significant bump in draft beverage sales on Super Bowl Sunday (with 23% increase being the historical average). 

To get you ready for a game-winning Sunday, we've collected some Super Bowl recipes below.

1/2 cup salt

4 Tbsp. sugar

4 qt. water

2 cups ice

Frank’s RedHot

Nacho cheese

Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, crushed

Parmesan cheese

For the wings:

  3. After 12 to 24 hours, remove wings from the brine liquid, and lightly rinse under cold water. Roast your wings off at 500 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes.
  4. Allow your wings to cool down before frying. Fry your wings off at 375 degrees between 5 to 6 minutes to crisp them up. If you want your wings extra crispy, cook for an additional 2 minutes.

For the toppings:

  1. In a mixing bowl, toss your wings in Frank’s RedHot sauce and plate.
  2. Once plated, top the wings with crushed Flamin’ Hot Cheetos, drizzle on your desired amount of nacho cheese, add in the parmesan and finally garnish with cilantro. Eat and enjoy
