Football season is in full swing—and that means tailgating parties. Trying to figure out what to serve to your guests? Consider ordering everything from burgers to more unexpected options from your favorite restaurant. Here are a few suggestions to keep in mind.

Tailgate Classics

The beauty of classic tailgate foods is that they’re delightfully hearty, filling, and warming all at once. Burgers of all kinds are perfect because you can customize them according to everyone’s dietary preferences. Chili is another popular favorite that pairs well with cornbread. Serving up a platter of wings in various flavors ensures that there’s something mouth-watering for everyone to enjoy.

Additionally, side dishes help round out an already tempting meal beautifully. Traditional staples include coleslaw and potato salad. You might also want to present a big serving of nachos before the main course. No tailgate is complete without some crunchy chips piled high with all the fixings.

Adventurous Choices

Of course, if you want a few out-of-the-box choices, consider switching out the burgers for po’boys? Just as satisfying, these jumbo sandwiches can be prepared with everything from shrimp to ham. If it’s a particularly chilly day, there may be nothing more appropriate than a bowl full of piping hot gumbo.

Instead of offering French fries, take it in another direction with a serving of gator fingers and some honey mustard sauce on the side. Overstuffed quesadillas and fried pickles are other fun choices that will make this a game-day meal to remember.
