Tasty Tailgate Treats Season Two Recap<\/h2>\n

Easy Peasy Treats<\/h3>\n
Anything that is quick, easy, and hand-held so you can walk, talk, drink, and the tailgate is a must! Last season, in September, we featured a Kickoff Weekend<\/a> of treats broken down by breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The breakfast egg rolls<\/a>are on the hit list for those ungodly early 11 am kickoff games. We also featured Bites, Bites, Bites<\/a>! Because, let’s be honest, tailgating and bites go hand in hand. The cheesy meatball bites<\/a> are perfect for any tailgate party, even if you are just home alone watching a full day of football by yourself.<\/div>\n

Tasty Treats<\/h3>\n
To celebrate State Fair season, we featured Treats on a Stick<\/a>. Does it get any easier than that? Cheeseburger on a stick<\/a>. Charcuterie on a Stick<\/a>. Come on, the combinations are endless. As well as being endlessly tasty. As September progressed, we had Big Batch Beverages\u00a0<\/a>and Wonton Cups.<\/a> Who knew how much stuff you could put into a Wonton cup and it would make such a perfect tailgate treat? We finished the month strong with sliders<\/a> of all varieties. We kept them as simple and tasty as possible.<\/div>\n

BLTs, Sweets, Soup, and Spooky Treats<\/h3>\n
October kicked off with a big bacon bang. BLT season<\/a> is a thing, or we made it a thing with our tailgate treats. Breakfast BLTs<\/a>, BLT Dip, BLT Pasta Salad,<\/a> you get the picture. After all that bacon, we had to tackle some Sweet Treats<\/a>. We may have even added a little adult Brownie Bourbon Bite<\/a> into the mix. As October progressed and the weather FINALLY started to cool off a teeny tiny bit, we dove headfirst into All Sorts of Soup,<\/a> and we even found one named “Tailgate Soup<\/a>“. We finished October strong with Halloween Treats<\/a>. You can never go wrong with a Halloween-themed tailgate party!<\/div>\n

More BACON & School-Themed Treats<\/h3>\n
We kicked off November 2022 with\u00a0Bacon Wrapped Greatness<\/a>. There are Bacon-WrappedMac and Cheese bites<\/a>. Even some healthy Bacon Wrapped Asparagus<\/a> treats. Well, kind of healthy. As November rolled on and the top teams settled into a rhythm, we tried to find the top tailgate treats to match the Top Five<\/a> at the time. We had Boiled Peanuts<\/a> to represent Georgia. Some Ohio State Buckeyes<\/a>, and even some BBQ Ribs,<\/a> thanks to TCU. November rolled on, and so did our treats.<\/div>\n

Toasty Treats<\/h3>\n
Is there anything better than a crisp November afternoon full of football, friends, and food? To celebrate the much cooler weather that mid-November delivered, Toasty Treats<\/a>. There was a Louisiana Hot Crab Dip<\/a>, some Caramel Apple Dip,<\/a> as well as some Polar Bear Hot Chocolate<\/a>. Then before you know it, we were whipping up Tailgate Treats with Thanksgiving Leftovers<\/a>. Which included Bacon Wrapped Stuffing Bites<\/a>. Which was a gateway to MORE Bacon and Meatballs<\/a>.<\/div>\n

Kicking Off December<\/h3>\n
With the first weekend in December is full of Bacon and Meatballs. We introduced Slow Cooker Bourbon Meatballs<\/a>. As well as some low-carb options for those trying to avoid the Holiday weight gain. Low Carb Bacon-Wrapped Sweet Potatoes<\/a>. Then, for those who love a little holiday weight gain, we had some Glazed Brownies.<\/a> The World Famous Army-Navy game always features a special Army-Navy-themed beverage. Sometimes, we even include a little history for those who enjoy a story behind their recipes. Including Navy Grog,<\/a> which was tasty and known to prevent scurvy. As the year flew by, we featured Holiday Tailgate Treats<\/a> just to make the holidays a little more tasty and fun. Including New Year’s Eve and Playoff treats<\/a> too. There was even a 4th of July Special edition<\/a>, because why not?<\/div>\n

On The Menu<\/h3>\n
