Game Day Hot Foods

A mix of hot and cold foods is always a good idea, but that doesn't mean the home team has to cook. Our selection of heat-and-eat party foods will provide some much-needed heat come halftime.

1. Strengthen your offensive line with our veteran Stuffed Mushrooms from the Meat Department.
    
2. Get ready for the snap with our Ready-to-Sauce Meatballs, a super-easy hot option from the Grab & Go Case in the Deli Department. We especially love them tossed with one of Kowalski's Signature Kalbi Sauces or your favorite savory jam (as pictured).
    
3. Top Kowalski's Queso Blanco Dip from the Deli Grab & Go Case with Kowalski's Fresh Pico de Gallo from the Produce Department for an easy, scoopable party snack. 
    
4. Kowalski's Signature Tortilla Chips are made fresh locally and available in yellow or white corn varieties. A long-standing fan favorite!
    
5. Baked Smoked Salmon Cakes – What could be better than stand-alone or dippable salmon? Click here for the recipe.
    
6. Olive Sliders – Double olive coverage on tasty pretzel buns. Click here for the recipe.

Kowalski's Shoreview Market is home to our in-store smokehouse and state-of-the-art meat processing facility. This is where we smoke our Signature Pulled Meats with hickory logs for up to 14 hours before we deliver them to every one of our Twin Cities markets. We use traditional Kansas City style methods and flavors to craft these smokehouse delectables. We never use artificial preservatives like sodium nitrates or nitrites, and all meats are raised with no antibiotics or added growth stimulants – ever!
