The CP Tailgate Recipe Thread

[TinyEvel]

Arrowhead is indisputably the best tailgate experience in the world, and we have an army of tailgate veterans here.

I've enjoyed some epic pre-game eats in KC, including Scotch eggs, bacon-wrapped jalapeños, breakfast burritos, cajun-inspired chili from a foil pouch that Phobia pulled out of his jacket pocket, and meat from a smoker the size of a Volkswagen, that was like a "meat clown car" where the meats just kept on comin'.

I figured we should share our favorite recipes here to spread the joy.

POST YOUR BEST TAILGATE RECIPE. could be a food or drink. The tried and tested, the ones your friends keep coming back for and talk about during the offseason.

Kind of the same cheese ball recipe, but a Lil different ingredients:

2 8oz. Packages cream cheese softened
1 t. Season salt
1 T. Finely chopped onion
1/4 C. Finely chopped green pepper
1 small can of crushed pineapple, drained well
1 C. Chopped pecans

Of course now a days you can use the whipped Philadelphia cream cheese too so you don't have to wait for it to soften

Add some shredded smoked gouda and a dash or two of A1 steak sauce if you want to beef out your cheeseballs

It actually works really well

Get 20 wings (drums and flats) from the butcher counter at a reputable store.

If you rinse them pat them dry with paper towels.
Put them in a gallon freezer bag, drizzle olive oil to coat.
Grind black pepper and salt and mix them around by fondling the outside of the bag like it was your nuts after a hot shower. Repeat until all are evenly coated.

Grill on medium/high heat, keep turning them and move them around so they don't get blackened by fire. The flats will cook faster than the drums so move them aside when done, but in my experience you almost can't overcook them. Get the outsides nice and crispy.

Put in a large bowl and drizzle with Franks Hot Wing sauce and tumble with tongs or a large spoon to get them evenly coated. don't overdo it on the sauce, you can always add more, but the crispiness from the olive oil and grilling gives good texture you don't want to smother that too much.

Serve immediately straight from the bowl. No celery or dip.

You're on spot with the olive oil but you can up your game cheat mode with some Wing Dust.

I had cowboy beans.

And summer sausage.

So it was summer sausage fajitas or bean and cheese burritos.

But hey, the fajitas were spectacular last night.

Bacon Wrapped Brats

I use BBQ rub instead of Dano's, but this is the technique if you're using a smoker and grill.




Option A: You can slice open the brat and add some cheddar cheese if using regular brats.

The other popular item is the Chicken Lollipops.

I'm too lazy to type it all out, but this is a great recipe if you have a Char Broil Big Easy



Option A: This also works well with turkey legs.
