tailgated this past weekend, as a matter of fact, in Athens for a GA bulldogs game. the boy smoked a 5 lb piece of pig butt. we had pulled pork and coleslaw sandwiches before heading to the game (and copious amounts of beer).

We're going to a tailgate party next week, and I'm bringing Italian sausages with peppers and onions to put on rolls. Other menu items I know of so far: keilbasa, chili, chicken wings. Looks like a meat fest.

We typically do:
Ribs, Wings, and Nathans dogs
Sometimes we go with Bratwurst and Kraut.

I am right now in the midst of planning our tailgate menu for the USC vs. Ohio State game this saturday. We tailgate on campus under the trees. Still deciding whether to bring the grill, or go more picnic style.
I do already have the jello shots and cocktails and dessert planned! Can't wait to read what you all are making.....might get some ideas.
Fight On! Go Trojans. :)

Last month for a baseball game we did hot dogs and chicken that I marinaded in a ziploc bag and threw in the cooler with the beer. We haven't planned the menu yet for next weekend's football game.

I got my friend the tailgaters cookbook a few years ago for his birthday- I remember wishing I loved sports just so I could join in the tailgating eating & cooking!

For the Pack last year we made beer brats, but used leinenkugel's beer. It was AMAZING.

@FerBer What is this sort of beer you talking about? My BF is a beer fanatic what style and volume and whereis it made?

Just tailgated in a parking lot on campus at Penn State last weekend!
My parents ran the show -- so no booze -- but they provided excellent deli meats, cheeses, Hellman's, Plochman's, lettuce, tomatoes, red onion and *the best* sandwich rolls for a make-your-own sub frenzy. Mama Sus gets the rolls freshly baked from the owner of our favorite hometown pizza joint, Jo-Jo's. If you want to do subs, see if you can get freshly baked rolls from your favorite pizza/sub place.
It's worth it!

I love bringing a thermous of some sort of smooth soup. My BF has season tickets to his favorite team. I gave him a thermous of butternut squash soup once and he raved about it for months after.

pjracz10,
leinenkugel is a Wisconsin brand, but I know you can buy it around the country (I live in NC right now, and we're able to find it). They've got tons of flavors, a lot are seasonal, but if you can find a "Leinie Lodge" I recommend getting it. It's an assortment of their best beers.

@FerBer Thank you I checked their site out and found they have it in Washington state, I will have to check it out. The recipes they have are something I have to print out as well, you try any of them?
