Week 5 Report - BYE Week
TEAM Tailgate hardly knows what to do with ourselves during this whole BYE week situation...well, how about recipe testing?!? Yes please!
Let's just say this...if KU coaches are breaking down film and players are crushing the weight room with as much tenacity as TEAM Tailgate exhibits during their BYE week, than the season is on the up and up...
We call these tasty morsels...Tex-Mex Tijuana Tailgate Nuggets. As always, the play-by-play!
Get yourself a nice blend of spices...quite a line-up, yes?
Prepare the jalapeno boats
Mix-up spices with shredded rotisserie chicken and cream cheese. Add chicken goodness to the jalapenos. Then...wait for it...yep, wrap in BACON. Add a small drizzle of honey. Bake.
BEFORE
AFTER
These little bad boys will send your taste buds to a whole new dimension. However, it never hurts to take it up, yet another notch. The devil is in the details and going the extra step is what wins championships! Take a plunge in the chipotle ranch dressing!
Come one, come all....Homecoming tailgate fires up bright & early this coming Saturday. Pop by for a beer, breakfast, and bloody! You take care of Mike the Bartender...we take care of you!

Week 4 Report - Southern Mississippi
The Football Gods continue to shine down on Lawrence, Kansas...perfect weather, phenomenal tailgate, and another W!
Friday Night Prep! Fired up a new breakfast sammy this week. Croissant with smoked Canadian bacon and Swiss. Rave reviews may be an understatement, just a flavor explosion! Take a peek...
Several concerned followers of the blog have voiced concerns about equal opportunity...what about the cocktails!?! Mike the Bartender has been whipping up morning elixirs like a mad man week in and week out, taking command of the bar with a TR5-like tenacity, as evidenced below..."What you having?"
Vodka! Vodka! Vodka! OJ! OJ! OJ!
The game? Well...undefeated lives here! Always a fan of "The Reds". Also, reminds TEAM Tailgate of a favorite quote from former LB Joe Mortensen..."they bring out the DEVIL in us!" Another strong attendance mark, as well. Just over 50,000.
Now the Bye Week is upon us...TEAM Tailgate will be recharging the battery, while KU Football heals up and gears up for the stretch run to Win The North!
Hope to see you for Homecoming vs. Iowa State on October 10th.
Rock Chalk!

Week 3 Report - Duke
Another Saturday in Lawrence, Kansas...another stellar performance from TEAM Tailgate. Let's get to the particulars.
First breakfast tailgate of the year = grilled Krispy Kremes. Behold...the happiest grill in the world.
*Bonus Alert* - Video of this culinary revolution for your viewing pleasure...try not to drool on your monitor.
We all know the perfect balance to an all star food line-up is to follow the lead off dish with something that really takes it to another level...Tailgate Breakfast Tacos, anyone?
Step 1 - Flour tortilla lathered up real nice with sour cream...
Step 2 - Add grilled hash brown/Mexi cheese blend/onion/green chiles wedge
Step 3 - Flank cheesy potato cake with Mexican shredded beef...yep barbacoa!
Although the Hawks got off to a slow start and the offense again looked as if they "left some points out on the field", they still covered and maxed out the Touchdown Tuesday promotion. What else could you ask for, really?
And a great parting shot...hands down the biggest KU party guy we've seen in many, many years...ENJOY!
Hope to have a large & in charge tailgate draw next week when undefeated Southern Mississippi comes to Memorial Stadium. Kick-off at 11:00 a.m. again...join up with us anytime, we'll be hitting the repeat button!

Friday Rituals
Friday is often considered the MVD (Most Valuable Day) for getting your mind right for Saturday, excuse me...GAMEDAY!
Whether it is lugging 100 pounds of ice into your car, raiding Fritz's for delicious meat products, creating a potent homemade batch of Bloody Mary mix, ensuring the generator is loaded up with premium gasoline, painstakingly loading each support column for the gargantuan tent into the van, etc., etc....
However, TEAM Tailgate would like to take this opportunity to send a Big Ups to one of our biggest supporters. Although small in stature, 8 year old Will of Leawood, Kansas brings the ROCK CHALK fury!
As you'll see below, Will has just about everything "KU" on this earth...very impressive! However, we'd like to draw particular attention to his "Friday Best" carefully laid out across the headboard. Yep...RUN DMT!!! Something tells us that Will is the envy of his entire elementary school...fellow classmates, faculty, staff, the principal, crossing guard...all of 'em.
Take a bow, young Will.

Week 2 Report - UTEP
We know what you're thinking...Week 2 report? KU was on the road!
Exactly, which brings TEAM Tailgate to a couple other favorite football season rituals...recipe testing & watch parties!
What you're about to lay eyes on WILL, we repeat WILL, cause foaming at the mouth, as well as an intense burning in your gut, i.e. hunger pains. Please proceed with extreme caution!
Follow us on this culinary adventure...start with a jalapeno, stuff with a mixture of chorizo/cream cheese/jack cheese, wrap in bacon!
Load up your Chile grill, that just happens to be shaped like an armadillo, because that is money!
After 45 minutes of indirect heat...pure bliss. Can you say party in your mouth?
Recipe testing? Check!
Watch party?...Well, it appears the RUN DMT 09 tour bus swept through Chicago on Saturday night. A few proud supporters dominating Lottie's during a KU watch party.
Hope to see the masses on Saturday for our first breakfast tailgate of the season...then, we destroy Puke!
