tailgating food for this weekend

FanOfFanboys

so I'll be at the Clemson game this weekend and since they have a noon kickoff it'll be an early tailgate

here is what I am thinking but please give advice and tips where you see fit

Friday night I plan to make a bacon explosion. bacon, sausage, cheese, and maybe some sauteed mushrooms/onions/peppers. I'll cook raised indirect at 275ish until about 150ish internal. thin coat of bbq sauce and then raised direct for 10-15 minutes

Saturday morn at the tailgate itself I'll use a rice cooker to make grits. then will slice the bacon explosion on site and top the grits with it

I am going to go by local farmers market after work one day this week and see if they have any green peanuts left. if so, I'll get a few pounds and make boiled peanuts as well

any suggestions or tips?

Sounds like a nice breakfast tailagte to me. Breakfast Fatty may be another option as well. And don’t forget those breakfast beers!

never heard of a breakfast fatty before so did a quick search

is the biggest difference adding the scrambled eggs?

Isn't tailgating food what fits inside a Bloody Mary?


Can't go wrong with Bloody Mary fixings

I have many thoughts....but since you are headed to the Valley....you are on your on.

Good luck. I've had marginal success with mushrooms inside sausage when reheating. (Excess liquid). Peppers and onions should hold up fine. Just a thought. Sounds awesome. 

Post it in the Gameday Throwdown when I start the post.

Making 2x baked taters for the tailgate party.   Should be epic
