Tailgating Recipes? Help please!!

Kris914 · 08-28-2012, 08:29 AM

So we are going to my very first ever football game on Saturday.... (not NFL, just college....but still!) I didnt' grow up around football, and my highschool didn't even have a team so I'm really excited!

Anyway, apparently we will be tailgating all day before the game, so I need a few recipes to take with me to contribute to the group. The only thing I know for sure we will have is a cooler and a grill (I know we are doing hot dogs) but other than that I have no ideas whatsoever about what to bring!

Typical things like baked beans, coleslaw, potato salad, deviled eggs, chips, etc.

There's a cold "salad" with apples, cool whip and cut up snickers bars that always seems popular. I have done it with a tub of cool whip (but made my own...because I find cool whip gross), 2 granny smiths and a fuji, a couple diced Snickers bars and 8 oz cream cheese.

Chili, BBQ hambergers and brats, anything in a crock pot really I would think would be a great idea

I like to make twice baked potatoes and serve them cold. Fruit kebabs are always good
