As the biggest game day in football approaches on February 12, many people are beginning their planning for this year's festivities. While last year's event took place in Florida, the state's medical cannabis patients may have been focused on football for quite another reason—the league's slowly shifting cannabis policy. As we <a href="https://muvfl.com/post/nfl-cannabis-policies">reported in 2021</a>, the NFL continues to penalize players for testing positive for THC, even if the use took place in a legal recreational state.&nbsp;

In addition, the league also prohibits cannabis for medical use. Unfortunately, the NFL’s policy on medicinal cannabis does not appear to take into account recent science, which demonstrate that cannabis may help athletes recover, provide pain relief, and combat inflammation without providing an unfair competitive advantage.

Incorporate Cannabis into Your Game Day Festivities

core/heading

Still, there is a way for Floridian cannabis patients to incorporate medical cannabis into this year’s game day festivities—simply create a <a href="https://muvfl.com/post/cannabis-infused-drink-recipes">cannabis-infused drink</a> and enjoy the game from the comfort of your home. In fact, cannabis-infused drinks and dishes can provide a unique twist on traditional game day snacks and also offer an effective way to manage a variety of symptoms and conditions.

If this sounds like a football party that’s right up your alley, you’re in luck—we've rounded up some tasty game day snacks with a boost of cannabis benefits. Just a note—when it comes to creating cannabis-infused recipes for a party, it’s important to remember that the state only supports cannabis use for official medical cannabis patients with approved conditions. That means any cannabis-infused snacks you prepare should be reserved for your consumption only. That said, let’s explore some of our favorite canna-friendly game day snacks!&nbsp;

Before we begin, it's important to note that when creating cannabis-infused recipes, dosing is key. Start with small amounts and work your way up to your desired potency. It's also important to remember that the effects of <a href="https://muvfl.com/category/recipes">cannabis-infused foods</a> can take longer to kick in and may last longer than inhaled cannabis, so be sure to plan accordingly.

Essential Ingredients: Cannabutter and Cannabis-Infused Oil

Many cannabis recipes incorporate cannabis oil or cannabutter to infuse the special qualities of THC or CBD into the food. You can purchase these essential ingredients or make your own. To make active cannabis oil using dried, ground cannabis, you will need to convert THCA into THC, the psychoactive compound that produces the characteristic effects of cannabis. This process, called decarboxylation, can be achieved by heating ground cannabis in the oven for 20-30 minutes at 180 degrees Fahrenheit.&nbsp;

Once the marijuana has been decarboxylated, mix it with your desired oil (we recommend extra-virgin olive oil or canola oil) in a pan. Heat the mixture on low for 3-6 hours, being sure not to let the oil exceed a temperature of 190 degrees. Stir the mixture frequently to prevent burning. After the infusion process is complete, strain the oil through a cheesecloth and store it in a jar. The cannabis oil is now ready for use in cooking or frying.&nbsp;

To make cannabutter, you'll melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Stir the butter continuously to prevent it from burning. Add the desired amount of decarboxylated cannabis to the melted butter and continue to simmer, stirring occasionally. The standard ratio is about 3 grams of cannabis to one cup of butter, but you can adjust the amounts based on your tolerance. Once complete, strain the mixture through a cheesecloth and refrigerate overnight.

Place the meatballs onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

Bake for 24-26 minutes or until the meatballs are fully cooked.

Heat your favorite sauce in a pan over medium heat and add cannabis-infused oil.

Remove the sauce from the heat and let it cool.

Store sauce in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.

Note: To use your sauce, brush it over grilled meats or vegetables during the last few minutes of cooking. You can also use it as a marinade before grilling or as a dipping sauce on the side.

Note: You can also use a crock pot to help keep the smokies warm during the game and prevent overheating your cannabis-infused BBQ sauce in the oven.
