September is here, football season is kicking off, and in Colombian households across the United States the same question comes up every week: what are we putting on the table this Sunday? The answer, as always, comes from the kitchen back home.
At Su Sabor, we know game day is not just about the match. It is the perfect excuse to bring the family together and share the flavor we left behind in Colombia. That is why we put together this guide to the frozen Colombian cravings you need for your next Sunday cookout, plus exactly where to buy them in the USA.
Why Colombian Food Is the Real MVP of Game Day
While the rest of the block orders pizza, your table has something better: golden fried empanadas, chorizo sizzling on the grill, and warm arepas ready to be filled. These are foods that cook fast, share easily, and, most importantly, taste like home.
Here are the three stars that cannot be missing from your spread:
- Colombian empanadas: crispy on the outside, juicy on the inside. The universal appetizer that wins over even your least adventurous guest.
- Colombian chorizo: the perfect addition to any grill, with a smoky flavor no American hot dog can match.
- Colombian arepas: the versatile base for any craving, from arepa con queso to arepa filled with chicharrón.

Colombian Empanadas: Crispy, Golden, and Ready in Minutes
Nothing says “football Sunday” like a tray of freshly fried empanadas. The best part: our frozen Colombian empanadas go straight from freezer to fryer or air fryer, no thawing required, so you can have them on the table before kickoff.
Cooking tip: fry them over medium heat in hot oil for 3 to 4 minutes per side, or air fry at 380°F for 8 minutes. The result is the same crispy texture you remember from the street corners of Bogotá or Medellín.
Chorizo and Morcilla: The Flavor Your Cookout Is Missing
If the grill is already going, Colombian chorizo and morcilla are the duo that take any Sunday cookout to the next level. These are niche products with a small but fiercely loyal customer base, the kind that reorders again and again.
Serve them with arepa, papa criolla, or on their own with homemade ají. It is the combination that turns any Sunday into a gathering with real Colombian flavor.
Where to Buy Frozen Colombian Products in the USA
Here is the important part: our empanadas, chorizo, morcilla, and arepas are exclusive to retail and partner stores. They are not available on Amazon. That is why we built a Store Locator to help you find the closest retail partner across Florida and the East Coast.
