Tailgating Recipes

Grilled S'mores Nachos

Imagine a steaming plate of nachos but instead of cheese...with chocolate and marshmallows! Nachos for dessert! There are so many topping options you can add on this versatile recipe.
Course Dessert

Ingredients
  

  • White Corn Chips or Graham Crackers
  • Chocolate Chips, any variety
  • Mini and Large Marshmallows

Instructions
 

  • Layer white corn chips or graham crackers in a foil pan.
  • Top with chocolate chips and mini marshmallows. Repeat two or three times.
  • Top with large marshmallows as the final layer. 
  • Heat on the grill until melted. 250-350F works fine.

Notes

If using white corn chips, I like to sprinkle the chips with cinnamon and sugar. Either honey or cinnamon graham crackers work well also. We placed the dish in the picture at high heat quickly to achieve a char on the large marshmallows. Feel free to add other toppings, such as caramel and fruit.
Grilled bananas also make an excellent topping! Take an unpeeled banana and cut it crosswise and then lengthwise into 4 planks. Grill flesh side down to caramelize the pieces.

Smoked Cream Cheese

What a super simple and versatile dish to have at your next tailgate! You can customize the seasoning used to mix up how you use this delicious treat!
Course Appetizer

Ingredients
  

  • 1 block Cream Cheese
  • Savor Products Uncle Larry's BBQ Rub

Instructions
 

  • This makes the best dip! Eat it right off the grill. While not necessary, I like to cut the block of cream cheese in half lengthwise to get more seasoning in your dip.
  • Savor Products Uncle Larry's BBQ Rub on the cream cheese is great to pair with pretzels, celery, and crackers. Use Savor Products Taco Auténtico seasoning on the cream cheese and have tortilla chips as dippers. You can even sprinkle cinnamon and sugar on the cream cheese and have graham crackers as a side.
  • Coat both sides of the cream cheese piece with your favorite seasoning. Take a knife and lightly score the top of the cream cheese in a cross-hatch pattern.
  • Place each cream cheese piece on foil, and seal the foil edges, leaving room above the block of cheese. Grill at 210-225F for about an hour. Serve warm.
 

Grilled Breakfast Pizza

Grilled pizzas are perfect at any time of the day! Everyone can get in on the fun and personalize their own pizza to grill. From adding breakfast toppings to meats and veggies to even sweet items for dessert, grilled pizzas can be a staple for tailgating all day long!
Course Breakfast

Ingredients
  

  • 2 12" Pizza Crusts
  • 7 oz Crème Fraiche
  • 1 lb Breakfast Sausage
  • Cheddar Cheese, shredded
  • Gruyere Cheese, shredded
  • Mozzarella Cheese, pieces

Instructions
 

  • Grilled pizzas are so easy and versatile! For the breakfast pizza, crème fraîche works well as a base. Spread it in a thin layer on the crust.
  • Add cooked breakfast sausage or any meats you wish sprinkled around the pizza.
  • Top with shredded mild cheddar and gruyere, along with fresh mozzarella pieces (or any cheese you desire).
  • Right before you put the pizza in the oven, crack an egg right in the center of the pizza.
  • Cook until the pizza crust is done and the egg is cooked. Typical temperatures to cook pizzas on the grill (depending on style) are 550-600F. Don't be afraid to increase the grilling temperature or be creative with your toppings!

Notes

For breakfast pizzas, feel free to top with all of your staple 'big breakfast' ingredients, such as breakfast sausage, potatoes, cheese, tomatoes, peppers, etc. Freshly grated cheese melts nicely on the pizzas.
