Now that we're in the throes of football season, it's time to start preparing our grills for the big games! This is the time of the year when we grab our favorite brews, set up shop outside the packed stadium, and enjoy the excitement of the greatest game ever played.
Here's what you need to get started:
*A big truck or SUV. Make sure you have a car big enough to transport chairs, gas grills, food, and all your friends/family.
*There are always specials going on at local grocery stores. Find out when steaks, hamburgers, chips, beer, soda, and other assorted foods are on sale. Your weekly newspaper might also include coupons that will provide a sweet deal.
*Invest in a comfy collapsible chair. Most football games last well over 3 hours (that doesn't include the hours before and after you set up). You will definitely need a chair that can withstand the heat, rain, and any unexpected guest that makes room in your seat.
*Portable necessities. You will need a table to put the food on, tablecloth, disposable napkins/plates/silverware, trash bags, and most importantly a cooler.
*Don't forget the most important tool: your gas grill. A tailgate wouldn't be complete without the appliance needed most to cook your food. Just make sure you have enough propane left in the tank before heading out to the event. You don't want to be caught without it!
