Favorite Super Bowl Recipe in Wyoming? Ground Beef
On Tuesday, Google released a list of the top recipes that Americans have searched for in the last week to determine the most popular Super Bowl foods in every state.
Just yesterday, we noted that cows outnumber people by a 2-1 margin in Wyoming.
So is it really a surprise that Wyoming’s favorite Super Bowl main dish has ground beef in it?
Some apparently think ground beef is boring.
One individual tweeted, “Just ludicrous that the whole state of Wyoming could only come up with ground beef as their Super Bowl recipe.”
Others on Twitter seemed to be genuinely offended at our favorite Super Bowl recipe.
“What the hell is Wyoming doing serving plain ole ground beef?” tweeted Mr. Ray785
“What the hell Wyoming? Just cooking ground beef and not doing anything,” said Anthony Merkle.
Hey Anthony, how do you know we’re not doing anything with the ground beef?
I just Googled “ground beef recipes” and immediately found 70 recipes with ground beef in them like Cheeseburger Pizza, Pesto Bolognese Lasagna, and Grilled Cumin-Rubbed Hanger Steak with Smashed Minty Peas and Grilled Bread.
You read that right, Anthony. Maybe some of us are making Grilled Cumin-Rubbed Hanger Steak with Smashed Minty Peas and Grilled Bread on Super Bowl Sunday.
Sure, ground beef on its own may not be flashy. But let’s examine some other states.
Let’s start with our neighbor Idaho. Their favorite Super Bowl side dish? Potato.
Really, Idaho?
Another neighbor of ours – Nebraska – prefers Cream Cheese Jalapeño Hamburger.
How is it even possible that a sizable number of people in Nebraska even know what that is? They say the N on the Cornhuskers football helmet stands for knowledge so maybe it’s correct.
Our neighbor to the north picks Bacon Shrimp as their favorite appetizer. That’s solid.
And New Mexico selects Green Chicken Enchilada as their favorite main dish. Another worthy selection.
But if Wyoming is going to be criticized for picking ground beef then the critics must denounce Alabama and Indiana as well. Chicken. That’s the best they can do?
Ground beef is ‘Merca. I know that because Sam Elliott says it is. It’s what’s for dinner. Wyoming rules.
