For A Tres Chic Super Bowl

As we dig out from this pretty impressive snow, here's something else to contemplate for your Super Bowl festivities. Cured, that fabulous store on Pearl featuring artisinal cheeses and charcuterie, fine wines, and everything else to tempt your palate, is also offering Super Bowl specials for takeout. Here's what they say, and note the pre-order requirement. Food for football doesn't get better than this, my friends.


Here at Cured, we may know a bit more about food than we do about football, but we sure as hell know that half the fun of the big game is all about the food we get to eat while watching our favorite orange and blue clad men gladiate in the grandest of arenas. In honor of this most delicious day, Cured has a couple of Super Bowl specials to help fuel you for a long evening of screaming at the TV, jumping up and down, and cheering your little hearts out. If I must confess, I am not sure what I am more excited for, the game or the food that goes with it…


The Foot…(and a half) Long Sandwich: Step aside footlongs, because our 18” of deliciousness trumps your measly 12…Normally we make our sandwiches by cutting abaguette into thirds, but sometimes that just isn’t enough. Whether you’re entertaining a crew for the big game, or all the cheering and yelling just makes you extra hungry, we’ve got you covered. For Sunday, we’re stretching our famous sandwiches across an entire baguette, which means three times as much goodness in one single sandwich. We’ll even slice it up into small bite-size chunks, should you choose to share, for perfect game watching fuel. Each baguette yields about 9 mini-wiches.

OUR GAME DAY SANDWICH OPTIONS:($27.5 ea, GF avaialbe for $5 additional) 
1) Spicy Frenchman (Brie, Butter, French Ham and Peach Jalapeno Jam)
2) American Classic (Rustic Salami, Cheddar Cheese, Romaine, Dijon and Aioli)
3) The Payton Manwich (Capicola, Dry Jack Cheese, Pickled Red Onions, Aioli and Romaine) 
4) The Mediterranean – our token Veggie - (House Made Hummus, Feta Cheese, Olive Tapenade, Cucumbers and Greens) 


Chips, Dips and Spreads: You had me at Pimento… purely to fuel our own personal pimento problem, we’ve convinced our chefs to make up pint sized tubs of our favorite dips and spreads to devour on game day. We’ll have pints of house made Pimento Cheese Dip, Artichoke spread (totally vegan btw) and Hummus topped with the addicting Chili Crunch, all available for $15. We’ve ordered in extra large bags of Zapps Voodo flavored potato chips, we have house made crostini redolent with EVOO, and or course GF crackers and Etalia loaves boot! 


Cheese and Charcuterie Platter: We are building up special Super Bowl Platters for Sunday’s game, laden with Red Leicester (it’s orange), Dunbarton Blue Cheddar (it’s blue), Gruyere (it’s really damn good), Calabrese Spicy Salmi, Mocetta Bresaola and Sopressata, rounded out with Pepperoncinis and Marcona Almonds ready for you to pick up at your convenience on Sunday. Plus, we even have a wine shop filled with the best Colorado brews, perfect to either toast the Broncos success, or drown your sorrow should things go south.  Platters average $10 per person but can be customed tailored to fit any budget or appetitie.  All orders must be placed by Saturday (Feb 6th) and will be available any time fromNoon-4:25(game time!) to pick up on Super Bowl Sunday!
