The FoodPair Weekender: tailgate like a champ!


It's a great time of year to be a sports fan: college football on Saturdays; pro football on Sundays & Mondays; and the baseball season keeps going and going well into November.

So, what's the best way to celebrate and what should you eat? FoodPair to the rescue!

Invite some friends over to watch the games on that new HDTV you just bought or take the gang on the road for an old-fashioned tailgate. Regardless of where you go or what you do, you're going to need some drinks & grub.

While there are plenty of casual main course options, like burgers and hot dogs, the focus of any good game-day experience is the snack table. We love chips, dips, cheese, and crisp fresh veggies.

Here, FoodPair lays out a bounty of great snack ideas for your next outdoor or indoor tailgate. Enjoy!
