If you’re part of a game day gathering, but aren’t really that into sports, having a good game day appetizer (or several appetizers!) is even more important! Tasty snacks and appetizers have helped me get through more game watching parties than I can count. I may not always be that interested in the sport, but I’m always interested in the food!

20 Creative and Easy Game Day Appetizer Ideas

If you want to serve several appetizers and dishes during your game day gathering, it can be hard to keep all of that food warm in regular serving dishes. I’ve found that chafing dishes are a big help, and all you need are a few Sterno cans for fuel! Here are some more tips for making your game day party a success.

  • Delegate – Don’t do it all yourself. If you are hosting guests, ask them to provide cold appetizers and drinks so you can focus on the hot appetizers.
  • Create Zones – Hot foods will need special attention so create hot and cold zones in your serving area. Make use of ice chilled trays and platters and small slow cookers to keep food at the perfect temperature.
  • Level Up – Adding cake stands and trivets will create different levels on the table and make it look more visually appealing.
  • Grab It – Don’t forget to provide a way for your guest to grab their food. Tongs and picks are great options. It’s also fun to put out mini silverware and a selection of fun straws. It is a party after all!
