Okay, so you don't want to go out to watch the game and cooking is not an option. What can you order besides pizza? Plenty, as you already know (hey, we live in New York City, folks!). But we've found some particularly mouthwatering Super Bowl delivery specials, many of which involve pork. Mmmm . . . pork.
Momofuku will deliver their glorious bo ssam -- a whole pork shoulder cooked to tender perfection. It comes with rice, bibb lettuce, and assorted sauces (we're huge fans of the garlic/ginger), plus chicken wings, kewpie slaw, and housemade Crackerjack. $30 per person with a $200 minimum; call 212-254-3500 for availability.
Rosa Mexicano is offering super bowl party packs featuring their much-loved guacamole and fixings, including homemade tortilla chips, Rosa Mexicano salsas, and tortiallas. Available for parties of five, ten, fifteen or twenty, but orders must be placed online by 4pm on Friday. $36.95 for five guests; $109.95 for twenty; 212-533-3350).
Daisy May's BBQ has put together some serious sounding party packages for pick up or delivery on Sunday. Their special for four is $125 and includes two racks of their Kansas City Sticky Ribs, Tennesee Whisky Beer Can Style Chicken, plus plenty of sides. If that's not enough, get their award-winning pork butt with fixins -- it easily serves 6 or 8 -- for $225. For an extra add-on, $32 gets you a 32 ounce container of their Texas-style "Bowl of Red" chili, tortillas, cheese, sour cream, and chopped onion. Call 212-977-1500 to order and for details.
If you live close enough to one of their locations, you can do what Mario Batali plans on doing during a commercial break -- running to Gray's Papaya to pick up a bunch of dogs with the works.
