In my experience, the foods that are the most popular are the ones that are bite sized and easy to eat. No one wants to cut a tough steak or chicken breast with a knife and fork while balancing a paper plate on their lap all while teetering in a tailgating chair or a...

Even though sometimes it’s hard to get to the stadium for those noon, 12:30 or 1:00 games, it’s worth it when you arrive and have some fabulous food to enjoy with friends. Here’s a classic menu that we served “pregame.” ...

What to serve at a tailgate at the beginning of the season in the DEEP SOUTH!?Got to keep it cool! Some days are just not conducive to grilling, and hearing meat sizzling is just unappetizing when it’s over 90 degrees and humid out. These are the times my...

Because I get bored easily with food (rarely eat leftovers and tire of the same thing week after week), I like to be in charge of the tailgating, and so far, I haven’t had anyone raise a hand to object! ; ) Seriously, it helps if one person is organized (and...
