 Grey Cup recipes:


Sweet Onion Bacon Dip
6 strips of double smoked bacon, chopped
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
3 lbs cooking onions, peeled, halved, and thinly sliced
1 ½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
1 ½ cups full fat mayonnaise – no miracle whip
1 cup full fat sour cream

In a small skillet, cook the bacon until the fat is rendered out. Drain bacon, reserving the fat in the pan. Heat olive oil in a large skillet. Add onions and salt. Cook onions over low heat, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and deep golden in color, about 1 hour. Add water if needed. Add the vinegar in the last minute of cooking. Cool to room temperature. In a large bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, sour cream, onions, and bacon.
Serve this dip with potato chips or raw celery 
  

Spicy Sausage Heroes
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus more for brushing
1 pound red bell peppers, thinly sliced
1 large red onion, thinly sliced
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crumbled
½ teaspoon crushed red pepper (or more if you want them extra spicy)
Kosher salt & black pepper to taste
6 Italian sausages – casings removed
Sausage Buns

Heat a large frying pan on the stove top, add the oil, bell peppers, onion, garlic, oregano and crushed red pepper and season with salt & pepper. Cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are softened and just beginning to brown, about 6 minutes. Meanwhile, over moderate heat, brown the sausage meat until nicely browned. Once it is cooked, drain excess fat & add to the vegetables and keep warm. Brush the rolls with olive oil and toast in a frying pan or in the oven. Fill the rolls with the sausage and peppers – top with sliced provolone cheese and serve with lots of napkins
