2023 Alabama / LSU Tailgate

Alright yall, you know the deal – this is the big one for the year (at least from the food standpoint).  It’s Bama vs LSU! This is my favorite tailgate each time it comes around. It’s one that takes a ton of prep and I’ll be starting early this week.  Between making tasso, dicing the […]

2023 Alabama / TN Oktoberfest Tailgate

Alright Bama fans, it’s the Third Saturday in October and that means one thing – TN!  We welcome TN back to Bryant Denny looking for revenge from last year’s loss. Each year I like to do an Oktoberfest theme for a tailgate and this year I’ll be doing that for the TN game.  I’ll be […]

2023 Homecoming Alabama / Arkansas Tailgate

I’m breaking rank this week and generating the update without Chat GPT.  So, let’s get on with the tailgate. This week we welcome the Arkansas Razorbacks for the 2023 University of Alabama Homecoming.  We also usher in the game with a 11AM kickoff, that starts the parade at 7AM.  Sometimes I wonder what they are […]

2023 Alabama / Ole Miss Tailgate

Alright, I’m still playing with Chat GPT.  I coached a few revisions to the below to capture the actual menu. In short, it’s a traditional southern fare that represents many of the traditional Mississippi delta foods.  With a 2:30 kick I am shooting for food off at 11:45. Here you go: Hey there, y’all! It’s […]

2021 Bama vs Arkansas Tailgate

Well folks, another home tailgate season is coming to a close.  In some ways they fly by and in other ways my knees and back tell me there have been some long days.  It’s also odd ending on an SEC game at home that’s not Auburn.  This year has been great after a small 2020 […]

2021 Alabama vs NM State Tailgate

What a wild weekend of football!  Many of the top teams didn’t look great, and Bama proved to be right there in the mix of average.  But, LSU is in the books, and  W > L. Thanks to everyone that made the LSU tailgate.  I saw some faces I’ve not seen in a while and […]

Gumbo, Tasso, Boudin, Jambalaya, Etouffee, and more can only mean one thing.  It’s LSU week! That’s right folks, this week we welcome November, cooler weather, time change and LSU to Tuscaloosa. Most of you know it’s one of my favorite games to cook for and just like years past I’m excited to get those Cajun […]

2021 Third Saturday in October – Alabama / TN Tailgate

What a wild weekend of football behind us.  Bama came out angry after the loss from Texas A&M and handled business with State.  If you switched over to the Vols and Ole Miss game after ours wrapped up, well you may have been confused if it was golf or football you were watching – yes […]
