Chef Shows How to Make Super Bowl Dishes

Aired January 25, 2001 - 9:24 a.m. ET

THIS IS A RUSH TRANSCRIPT. THIS COPY MAY NOT BE IN ITS FINAL FORM AND MAY BE UPDATED.

LEON HARRIS, CNN ANCHOR: For once, we get an assignment we can sink our teeth into.

DARYN KAGAN, CNN ANCHOR: Yes, absolutely, you can do this.

Now, we are talking Super Bowl and making some great grub. And watching the Super Bowl at home is a great opportunity to party, but you have to have great food to go with it. So invited a Four Seasons chef, Chef Brook Vosika (ph) of the Four Seasons here in Atlanta, to put together some great stuff for us.

And indeed you have.

CHEF BROOK VOSIKA: Yes, we decided to do something that was indigenous to the different areas of the Super Bowl. So a couple of things we put together: a rather large sub.

KAGAN: Yes, you might say.

VOSIKA: Could probably feed half the team right there.

KAGAN: So this is in honor of New York and the New York Giants.

HARRIS: No, that wouldn't feed one Tony Siragoosa (ph).

VOSIKA: So we've done that.

KAGAN: What's on there?

VOSIKA: That has turkey, it's got ham in it, Genoa salami, it's got provalone cheese, American cheese, cheddar cheese. It's got a smoked gouda, some sprouts, tomatoes. And then on the picks, we've got a little bit of a garnish, like a relish, with black olives, green olives, some gerkens (ph) and tomatoes, rosemary.

Also, indigenous to, of course, we did a Maryland crab cake sandwich.

HARRIS: That would be the crab cakes.

KAGAN: Very good.

VOSIKA: And that was something that we thought of...

HARRIS: Wait -- a crab cake sandwich? I don't think I've ever seen a crab cake sandwich before.

KAGAN: How do you keep that from being too dry?

VOSIKA: We put a little bit of tartar sauce on it.

KAGAN: Not bad.

VOSIKA: And a little bit of coleslaw works very well with that too. A little bit smaller in size, of course, that the big sub, but you can make that a little larger if you wanted too.

HARRIS: You won't see this at McDonald's any time soon.

KAGAN: No, I don't think so.

HARRIS: The McCrab cake.

KAGAN: Exactly -- this looks a little bit easier to make, though.

VOSIKA: That is, that is.

KAGAN: And not too expensive, right?

VOSIKA: No.

KAGAN: I mean, what should that cost together?

VOSIKA: Well, you know, if you put it together, the roll itself was about $10, and I think to put it together totally it was about $30.

HARRIS: So it's a cheap way to feed a bunch of guys.

KAGAN: Yes.

VOSIKA: And you could easily do 15, 20 people, out of a sandwich like that. And you can set up a vegetarian one, too, or set up a section, if you wanted just a...

HARRIS: Not for the Super Bowl, not for the Super Bowl.

(CROSSTALK)

HARRIS: Now that's bad karma.

KAGAN: He won't even eat those sprouts on there, that's how anti-veggie...

HARRIS: Those sprouts are an insult to a sandwich like that.

KAGAN: Now, what do you have cooking up here?

HARRIS: That's what I want to hear about.

KAGAN: Back, back, back. VOSIKA: This was something indigent to New York. If you go through the street fairs and you're walking through New York, sometimes you see the huge rows of sausage -- either Italian spicy sausage or a mild Italian sausage. And what we've done is we've kept it in one large sausage roll, seared it on both sides, and then stewed it with some onions and peppers. You can see the smell is filling the room this way.

And this way, it really -- once it's browned this way, it cooks in the juices of the onions and the peppers. A little bit of olive oil and a touch of garlic in there.

KAGAN: Not bad.

VOSIKA: And we can cut off -- with this one, we take just a simple hoagie role. Now, it's kind of a shame that Philadelphia didn't get in there: I was going to make cheese steaks today, too.

(CROSSTALK)

KAGAN: Or the 76ers aren't looking bad -- maybe for a NBA final.

HARRIS: There you go, there you go.

VOSIKA: And then we can take the sausage, put it inside.

KAGAN: Do you want a little onions and peppers to go with this?

HARRIS: I'll take the peppers.

KAGAN: You do peppers?

HARRIS: Yes, I do that -- about the only vegetables you'll ever catch me with.

KAGAN: A well-balanced meal.

VOSIKA: You have your vegetables...

KAGAN: Did you bring napkins for Leon.

VOSIKA: You know...

KAGAN: Did you realize who -- you know, I see a big towel.

VOSIKA: There's a big towel, a big napkin.

KAGAN: I'm going to be the mother here.

HARRIS: What, do you want me to throw down on this thing?

KAGAN: Well, we don't want to do the rest of the newscast if you're dribbling.

HARRIS: Well, OK.

(CROSSTALK)

KAGAN: Now, I'm saving myself for this incredible super dessert.

(CROSSTALK)

HARRIS: Look at her -- no, no, no, she got both -- see what she did, she grabbed both spoons.

KAGAN: There's extra spoons -- I just have...

HARRIS: There's a real teammate for you.

KAGAN: I just have two.

HARRIS: Oh, my God. What's in this? It look like you got M&Ms in here.

VOSIKA: We've got M&Ms, we've got three types of -- strawberry, vanilla and chocolate -- ice gleam ice cream. there's two types of brownies in there. A dark chocolate and a milk chocolate brownie -- whip cream, cherries, M&Ms, chocolate shavings, raspberry sauce. You name it, it's in there.

HARRIS: Now, does this come with a difubulator (ph) too?

VOSIKA: Yes, pretty much, pretty much.

HARRIS: I'm assuming you've got to wait until the fourth quarter to eat this one.

KAGAN: Absolutely.

HARRIS: Talk about sudden death.

VOSIKA: Sit down first for that one.

KAGAN: Real quickly, how do you keep that from melting, besides eating it all up -- which I intend to do right now.

VOSIKA: You'll need a large freezer to put it in. The last thing we added was the ice cream. We had everything else built around it. And then we put it on -- the whip cream at the end -- and topped it with all the ingredients.

HARRIS: Well, we'd hate to waste this in the studio lights.

KAGAN: No, we can't do that.

HARRIS: So in the interest of conservation here, we're going to have to check this one out here.

KAGAN: Very good, well, thanks for bringing all this good stuff by -- and our crew loves you.
