Swanky Tailgating

Written By: Tamberlyn Dobrowski
Photography By: Taylor Mathis

Think of football and you probably think tailgate party—it is a time-honored tradition filled with great camaraderie, good food and plenty of drinks. Take your tailgate to the next level with gourmet food and swanky décor. Go ahead and pull out your favorite glasses, plates and recipes. Your guests will love it. The key is to make as much in advance as possible, be organized and go all out. It’s fun!

The following recipes can be made in advance. Batch drinks make it easy and a Bloody Mary bar is always a crowd pleaser.
