The Ultimate Tailgate...

by Blueblood27 on Nov 3, 2009 5:36 PM PST

As I sit at my apartment grading papers and patiently wait for my New York Giants parking pass to come in the mail, I cannot help but think of all the fun activities that await me in the parking lot of a sewer, if it were Next year it would be a really nice sewer. But that doesn't mean the smell of New Jersey will ruin my good time. I want to know what everyone thinks the Ultimate Tailgate food and Beer is. That is what I want to know! The best tailgate I did was Italy vs Ecuador in an International Friendly at the Meadow Lands. I am looking for some great Ideas! Here was the Menu...

Scallops wrapped in Bacon

Clams and melted Butter

Steak marinated in all sorts of goodness

Bubba Burgers

Chips and guacamole

the beer: Miller cans, bottles of Molson xxx (gotta love the Canadian in me) and Landshark

ok ok ok...here we go

shrimp tostadas-4lbs of jumbo shrimp,2 lg tomatoes,2 lg cucumbers,1 stalk of cilantro,1 purple or white onion,1 lb fresh minced baby clams,1 regular sized bottle of ketchup,and one bottle of spicy clamato….chop up all veggies and put in large bowl,and i mean large….make sure cilantro is finely minced…add baby clams,the whole bottle of ketchup,and enough clamato to your satisfaction(I usually put a little bit more than half)…squeeze about 8 to 10 limes(the big ones,if not double the smaller ones)…boil shrimp with 2 table spoons of salt until done(make sure to clean shrimp..ie remove shell and head)…finally mix in shrimp add salt and pepper to liking and chill for about 30 minutes.Buy lots of tostadas and Dos Equis as well.

Accompany with Rib Eye steaks marinated in fresh orange juice,lemon juice,one shot of tequila,and 2 table spoons of soy sauce…make sure you do it the night before.usually 2 oranges,2 lemons and the liquids alike(it’s enough for four)if you get more just double it,triple,etc….also make some potato salad and baked beans with brown sugar and bacon.

To finish it off grill some bratwurst sausages and pile on the grilled onions and relish…also don’t forget to buy avocados and Tapatio hot sauce for the tostadas…enjoy my recipes.

IMPORTANT….DON’T FORGET THE DOS EQUIS OK….

Who won ...

Italy or Ecuador … or does it matter as long as the food is good

It was just a friendly...

Actually It ended in a 1-1 tie. It was a great game. I did everything for that game. I melted the butter in a little pot for the clams. It was awesome. The Ecuadorian fans were cool too. We played Ecuadorians v Italians in the parking lot. Fake Jerseys were sold CHEAP! And everyone shared everything. They Roasted a Pig in a Shopping Cart! I hope Giants fans are that cool…

Tough to go wrong with beer brats

grill them for a couple minutes to get a little char on the sides, then boil in a pot of beer with onions and jalapenos/chiles (don’t breathe in the vapors from that, it’ll knock you out). The nice thing is you can just keep them simmering like that until you’re ready to eat them or as more people come to your tailgate. Serve on a bun with the onion/pepper mix, add sauerkraut if you’re into it. Easy and great.

All these tailgate parties..

and no invites to fellow BFTBers who will be at the game (like myself)? That is just cruel! :)

Do or do not. There is no try.

Actually

Blueblood27 is my buddy Mike from VA, who will be my bodyguard/personal chef for the game. Find us early!

Sweet!

I think I have the transportation thing worked out. I plan on being in the parking lot by 2pm. Is that too early?..too late? I can be on the first train out there. :)

My friend and I made this rotiserrie rig. We take it campin, ball games, where ever. I like to throw a leg of lamb on it. Season with fresh ground cumin, coriander, salt and pepper. I like to cook mine until it hits an internal temp of about 140-145. Let it sit for 20 min. Serve with…beer.

by BORTZ on Nov 4, 2009 1:52 PM PST reply actions

sounds good but I am not a fan of lamb...it tastes like flavorless meat on a stick...sorry dog I think I'm just used to beef pork and seafood.don't get me wrong,we cook with lamb in our food but I don't fucks with it.

It's 3:40am

here in the dirty, and reading this has made me so hungry that I am about to start gnawing on my leg. Gorditoe my family has marinated thin cut ribeyes the nite before charger games for many years about the same way you marinate yours. We grill them and make steak sandwiches with all the fixings and fresh guacamole and chips on the side! Did I say I was hungry? Never under estimate the power of a good pot of chili for game days also. Still hungry!
