Getting ready for Saturday -- what's good food for tailgating at home?

[mbh422]

Duck poppers- jalapeño with cream cheese and duck breast wrapped in bacon.

Sausage and cheese platter

Smoked shrimp skewers

Steak kebabs

Baby backs

Smoked Pork butt for bbq nachos or tacos

Go Vols

That makes me hungry now!!!

Thanks for the tips! I’ve done a few pork butts and ribs with excellent results thus far. Chicken makes me nervous for some reason.

Gotta get my confidence up for a big daddy brisket before too long. Maybe the SECCG…

Yup, im great with beef n pork but chicken is an oddity, unless its wings lol. My wife likes tacos and an easy way for that is chicken breasts marinated overnight in mustard and minced garlic with pepper and smoke at 425-450 for a bit and shred em, those are good

Probably be too nervous to eat, but just in case I get the munchies, what makes for good food for viewing this spectacular game?

Here’s what you’re gonna do.

Buy 10-20 Jalapeños. Cut em in half and gut em. Fill em with cream cheese and bits of pineapple. Wrap those mofos in thick cut bacon. Grill em.

Wash em down with whiskey

Crab rangoon

last week for Kentucky we got our regular order of sesame chicken, shrimp fried rice, veggie lo mein and Crab rangoons.

Chinese is a super under appreciated game time meal.

While I appreciate all of the suggestions, I forgot to mention that I have an old belly and some of these delicious dishes will send me to the ER. I long for the day when I could eat all of this but the salt content will send my blood pressure sky-high. I can eat in moderation though. I miss my days of those hot, steamed sandwiches from Gus's Good Time Deli.

Back in the day (1981 to be exact), I remember being on campus and eating a whole Domino's Pizza with some TN b-ball players. I was trying to add some weight in those days.

Hats off to all you young'uns who can still eat these dishes for your tailgate parties.

 

[TennesseeTarheel]

Almost ready!

When you get old a tailgate party can shift into a tailpipe party.

I'm making a big pot of purple hull peas with jalapenos. Gonna grill some wings and shrimp to go with it. Oh and a pan of cracklin cornbread.

Gonna wash all down with some PBR

Nothing wrong with PBR…..you just need to start with a different primer.
