Parmesan Crusted Chicken Drumsticks We’ve been getting requests for kid friendly tailgating food. Patti thought chicken drumsticks because they’re easy to prepare and come with a handle for the little ones. Fried chicken is always good, but Patti likes to Pacific Living Oven “fry” it so it’s a little healthier than soaking it in oil. To make it extra tasty we put lots of grated…

You can make this at home and bring it with you or it’s easy…
Bacon Squares We love bacon and have discovered Zaycon Fresh Bacon. Some of the best we have ever had. Thick sliced and flavor packed. I like to pile so much onto burgers and sandwiches and it is always falling out or off. The dogs love that part. We like bacon in every bite of the whole sandwich and this makes that happen easily. So, think…
Radical Short Ribs Radical Short Ribs, we found some beef short ribs on sale and that was all we needed to make our mouth water. Patti picked up 3 pounds of them and the rest is delicious history. Thinking we would do a long braise with a bit of a Hawaiian twist with crushed pineapple and Dr. Pepper for the sweet, plus a little pecan…
Tailgating Stuffed Dover Sole Our friends Paul & Sally were traveling their way up the Pacific coast. The first thing that goes into their RV is their Green Mountain Grills/Smoker “Davy Crockett”. It’s perfect for tailgating with its small size and efficient temperature control they can grill, smoke or bake all their favorite meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The only problem was Sally was…

Just do a quick dusting on your chicken with your favorite seasoning and put it on a stick. Tonight we went with curry using “Big Dick’s Curry Up”. Easy, simple and delicious… Patti and I…
Zesty Sausage Stuffed Chicken Thighs These little guys are great for tailgating and parties because you can make lots ahead of time and pop them in the freezer before you pour the soup over them. Even better, if you have leftover stuffing add some in the morning to scrambled eggs and you have an instant, easy breakfast dish or put into tortillas for breakfast burritos.…
Oktoberfest Sausage and Potatoes The weather here is turning coolish; it got down to 70 degrees on the patio tonight. Patti and I had to put on sweaters, we almost froze to death. This is a hearty and easy recipe for backyard barbeques and tailgating. Ken thought it was great with his favorite beer; Patti had it with a good red wine. The apple cider…

These are a big hit at the Super Bowl parties also. With us, it has to be something smoked off the grill. A great start for anything we come up with. How about Chipotle Bacon Bombs on a Stick? We…
Tailgater Brunch Pie Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Pacific Living Outdoor Oven but sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme. Wood burning stove, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little…
Prairie Fire I have worked on this recipe for over 25 years, and have fine tuned it to a religious experience. They are great for tailgating and Super Bowl parties. I have experienced much debate from my friends as how to serve this. Weather I should serve it either as a dip with chips, or to roll it up in tortillas, or just spoon it…
