Who knew about the Stinger?!

It’s beefy. It’s cheesy. It’s a little spicy and funky.

Having been to Buffalo a couple times, I don’t think I can think of a sandwich that sums up the Buffalo Bills better….no, not even Beef on Weck.

Now, does this deserve a spot at the new stadium?? Tag the Bills if you think so (tag Josh Allen, too. Why not?)

First division is down: NFC North.

All of these tasted SO good. And the ranking is only about the food haha

4: Vikings - loved the nostalgia. Flavors were on point. Texture was amazing. The fans on TikTok…they don’t like me. So much for Minnesota nice 😂😂

3: Packers - this take on Mac and Cheese was INCREDIBLE. The flavors just all made sense. If I would’ve added the soft pretzel right away, number 2 easy.

2: Bears - tavern pizza is so good. Giardinara took this over the top. Please, honestly, the ease of eating 7 of these.

1: Lions - this was not only fun to make, but the crust is my favorite. Add the shawarma and my undying love of garlic. This will hard to beat in general.

Do you agree with the rankings?? Which one is your favorite?

Now, on to the next division!

Maybe the most flavor-packed app for how easy it is to make.

Or use it as a sandwich spread like we did!

Yea…this one is it!

A Texas Tw***ie Cheesesteak?! The flavors just make sense.

The spicy smoked cream cheese with Heat Check. The cheesy bacon steak mix with Primetime.

I want to eat this everyday.

A smoky, saucy chicken sammich is all you need some days.

Toppings are great, but the crust makes the pizza.

Thin. Crispy. B**r instead of water. Chicago tavern style done right.

Think it belongs at Soldier Field? Tag the Bears and let them know!

B**r crust. Thin and crispy. Italian beef. Giardiniera.

Does this belong at Soldier Field?

If you think so, tag the Bears and let them know!

The one thing I’ll admit, this isn’t pretty 😂

But the flavors just made sense! And that Chipotle Mayo was unbelievable…

It did in fact cheesesteak…

Not traditional? Don’t care it tastes good.

The Greek yogurt. The lemon. The spices with Yardbird at its core. This stuff was GOOD.

But good enough to be on the menu at Ford Field? You decide. Tag the lions if you think so.

This sauce needs to be in your fridge at all times!

Lemon-y. Garlic-y. THICC.

I made this as the base sauce for our Chicken Shawarma Detroit Style Pizza. Let’s get this on a Ford Field menu!
