What the hell do I make for the new years eve? I got people coming to my place. What do you traditionally eat when the year changes?
Only thing I have to offer right now is hotdogs. Should I make real food or just snacks (onion rings or something)?

I wish me and my wife could throw something but her ex is being a dick and won't watch their kids...

Just make snacks/appetizer kind of things. Cook an actual meal on new years day.
My family always does a fondue, cheese bread, meats, whatever. Not especially difficult if you have the gear, and it's perfect for company.

I know that feel. My current gf is going out of state to visit her kids who are staying with their father.
Traditionally my family eats ham, collard greens, and black-eyed peas, which are supposed to give you health, wealth, and luck for the coming year.

Traditionally? My family has always done pork and sauerkraut in the crockpot. I love the smell of coming home to that after 8 hours.
Also normally get shrimp and a cheeseball.

I'm sure it's tastier, but ham's cheaper so we always stuck with smithfield.
lebanon balogna, sweet balogna, various cheeses, veggies, dips as a big platter for snacking
also little smokey sausages cooked in either orange or raspberry jam, and about 5 pounds of jumbo shrimp, both boiled and a special baked recipe which is nice
also shit tons of various wine and beer and shots FUCK YEAH
