The time honored tradition of eating and drinking together in the parking lot before a big game (or a concert) has become serious business. Tailgates are now often coordinated events in and of themselves, and they can be more fun than the game itself—especially if your team doesn’t win that week.
There are certain foods, such as Buffalo wings, chili, deviled eggs, and even veggies and dip that people expect to be at a tailgate spread. You’ll find them in this list, but you’ll also find a few unexpected dishes such as a cheeseball, candied bacon, and a sandwich that’s so good it will blow away a plain old hoagie or sub.
Best of all, this list will make it easy for you to answer the question, “What would you like to bring to the tailgate?”
