Super Bowl food

I wish I'd taken a picture, but they disappear so fast. The sausage is cut aobut 3/8" thick.

on the bias. The pastry is wrapped exactly as you describe, with the base of the triangle started on top and the point reaching under and around to sit on top of the base. The tip puffs up the highest when baked.

They don't all bake up perfectly and some of them end up looking more like pig-on-a-triangular-pillow, but they're just delicious with the Dijon mustard. Use any configuration that you want.

 
Just plain Jalapenos? Surely you'd stuff them with something. Is the banana foster bread pudding one

big vulgar dish or elegant little ramekins.

Forgive me, I'm not very well versed in Super-bowl fare.

 
We used to go to a bar that served something like this - they called it Puff Doggies smileys/smile.gif

They took a whole sausage (or maybe it was a gourmet hot dog), wrapped it with the puff pastry, then sliced it into 1/2" slices, and baked it. Served with mustard or ketchup.

They also wrapped little smokies with a strip of puff pastry (they left those whole). Can't remember the name of that one smileys/smile.gif

 
The jalapenos would be Pioneer Woman's. Stuffed w/Cream Cheese, wrapped in Bacon. Not elegant ...

or even fancy. Certainly not upscale but damn, they're gewd.

The bread puddling would be one "big vulgar dish" because portioning something like that ahead of time gets strategically complicated. If there are not enough for everyone or far too many, you wind up screwed. Plus,with the vulgar version, the next day you can slice the leftovers, lightly flour, saute in butter,top with maple syrup and serve with bacon for The "Breakfast of Death."

I realize you don't have that much experience with Superbowl fare. I mean after all, how could you? You're a . . . uh, "Francophile." Harumph.
