Become Your Shoppers’ Game Day HQ with Recipe Video

Game day isn’t just about the score. For grocery retailers, it’s one of the biggest food moments of the year. From pre-game planning to last-minute runs, shoppers are looking for ideas that make hosting easy, fun, and memorable. The stores that win on game day aren’t just advertising discounts, they’re inspiring the entire spread.

That’s where recipe videos come in.

Game Day Shoppers Want More Than Sales

Game day shoppers aren’t browsing randomly. They’re planning menus. They want crowd-pleasing food, easy prep, and confidence that everything will come together on time. When retailers pair promotions with recipe inspiration, they help shoppers answer the most important question: What are we making?

Recipe videos turn individual items into full game day solutions, helping shoppers visualize the party and buy everything they need in one trip.

Turn Game Day Favorites into Basket Builders

With short, ad-free recipe videos, grocers can spotlight classic and trending game day dishes that naturally drive multi-item purchases across departments.

  • Buffalo Chicken Fingers
    A game day staple that connects fresh chicken, sauces, breading, and dips. One video turns a protein promotion into a complete party favorite.

     

  • Potato Skins
    Highlight potatoes while pulling in cheese, bacon, sour cream, and green onions. Perfect for driving center store and dairy add-ons.

     

  • Orange Hoisin Spiced Chicken Wings
    A twist on traditional wings that encourages shoppers to explore bold flavors and specialty sauces, expanding basket size beyond the basics.

     

  • Jalapeño Sloppy Joes
    Comfort food with a kick. This recipe ties together ground meat, buns, peppers, sauces, and sides for an easy crowd-feeding option.

  • Queso Dip
    The ultimate party dip that brings together cheese, dairy, spices, and chips, making it an ideal recipe to anchor a snack-focused promotion.

     

Each video helps shoppers picture the party table and reinforces the idea that your store has everything they need.

Meet Shoppers Where Game Day Planning Happens

Game day decisions happen long before kickoff. Shoppers are planning on their phones, in their inboxes, and while walking your aisles. Recipe videos fit seamlessly into every touchpoint:

  • In-store screens to spark impulse ideas

  • Social media to inspire early planning

  • Email campaigns to support weekly promotions

  • Website and app placements to guide shopping lists

By showing recipes instead of just listing prices, retailers position themselves as the go-to destination for game day food.

Why Recipe Videos Work for Retailers

Recipe videos do more than engage. They educate, inspire, and simplify decision-making. When shoppers know exactly what they’re making, they’re more likely to purchase complementary items and less likely to shop around.

For retailers, that means:

  • Bigger baskets

  • Higher confidence purchases

  • Stronger brand loyalty during peak food occasions

And because the content is short, professional, and ad-free, it keeps the focus on the food and your store.
