Texas Salsa Creator Keeps Dude Food Super Simple for Sunday's Big Game
Simple preparation together with delicious twists on gameday classics make Sunday super.
Springtown, TX, February 01, 2012 --(PR.com)-- As a former Texas high school running back and lifelong Cowboys fan, David Evans loves him some football. The founder and CEO of Burnt Orange Texas Salsa also has a thing for food. The all-natural salsa he and his wife Melody created in their kitchen just a few years ago has become a statewide phenomenon, landing in more than 1000 grocery stores since launching in 2010.
So Sunday’s big game is akin to high holy days around the Evans household in Springtown. And the party table must be championship caliber.
For preparation as well as presentation – especially for guys – Evans passionately insists that simplicity is the key. However, the one-time bartender and restaurant manager has two super-easy suggestions for turning a same-old spread into something to cheer about. We’re talking chicken and dip.
“Hands-down the best marinade for chicken is dill pickle juice,” said Evans. “Grill it over charcoal with mesquite or hickory chips and it will change your life.”
As a pregame warm-up or a savory accompaniment to smoky grilled chicken, Evans offers a simple variation on his crowd-pleasing salsa. His concoction of Burnt Orange Texas Salsa combined with cool ranch dressing, a toss of chopped green onions and a dusting of cayenne pepper will do a touchdown dance on your taste buds.
“We serve it with chilled, raw vegetables for dipping,” Evans said. “Everything is fresh and straight from the refrigerator, so the cayenne pepper gives it a nice element of heat that is really delicious.”
Evans also points out that his Texas-made salsa is low-sodium and low-calorie. Burnt Orange Texas Salsa, available in mild, medium and hot, is sold in grocery stores throughout the state and through the company's website.
