Tail Gate Recipes

**CDUBMOM** · 08-29-2012, 01:54 PM

OK, I am Chris Williams' mom and am surprising him by this post (I never post). He once mentioned he would like a thread on Cyclone fans' favorite tail gating recipes. Since the Williams and the Andersons love to tail gate, I can't wait to see what we come up with!!!

I'll bite........

Crock Pot Buffalo Chicken Dip

Chicken Breasts (3 or 4)
Franks Buffalo Sauce (1Bottle)
Hidden Valley Ranch (1 Bottle)
Philly Cream Cheese (1 8oz Rectangle)
Shredded Cheese (1 8oz Bag)
Tostitos (couple bags, scoops work best)

Boil the chicken until cooked thoroughly. Shred the chicken into small pieces and place in the crock pot. Empty the Buffalo sauce bottle in with the chicken.

In a separate pot add the cream cheese and ranch. Simmer stirring regularly until smooth. Pour the mixture in the crock pot with the chicken and Buffalo sauce. Mix well. Use the cheese to top the dip and set the crock pot to low. Once the cheese has melted stir it all up and devour.

Side Note: use Philly and Hidden Valley - consistency gets off with generics

We should have an official CycloneFanatic Tailgating Cookbook.

We have a recipe that my wife and I just call "The Corn Dip"

2 cans Green Giant Mexi-corn
1 can black beans
1 can diced jalapenos
1 can ro-tel
chopped green onion
add equal parts mayonaise and sour cream to desired consistency

Make sure you drain all the canned stuff well, but otherwise it's basically idiot proof and very tasty. If you forget ingredients it probably doesn't matter, we've added a few things from the original recipe someone gave us so you can mess around with it.

Yea, we actually make that one all the time too. It doesn't travel the best though, so be wary if you aren't going to have power for your crock pot on site.

We've made something very similar before and I concur.

1-30 pack Busch Light
1-cooler
1-20# bag of ice

Place cans of Busch light in cooler, pour ice on top of cans, gently shake ice to help settle. Wait 10 minutes for beer to cool, then distribute.

SKOAL MINT!

Some good recipes. LIke the idea of a cookbook and will run that by Chris! One of our favorite that gets eaten real fast is simple: dry roasted peanuts and candy corn! Something about the sweet and the salty together.
We are cooking the usual hamburgers and Chris' favorite brauts. Ashley (Chris's lovely wife) loves her sweets so I'm sure she'll have cookies or bars and when I find out what I'll post.
Guys - get the recipes going from your wife!!!
