TailgateJoe
This past Saturday, Team TailgateJoe led by the tandem of Joe and Chef Sal, along with help from Joe G, took 1st place in Top Dog Audience Voting, as a majority of the over 600 attendees felt that our “Nick Mangold Over The Line Dog” was the best in a field of 24 chefs. Here [...]
It’s the summer, which for the TailgateJoe crew means a few months to get out of the kitchen and fire up the grill to test new recipes and ideas for next season. It also means it’s time for Joe and Sal to take their hot dog kung fu to Brooklyn to show everyone what time [...]
Right now there is a recipe making the rounds on the bbq/smoking message boards that people are calling “pork shots” or “pork candy.” It basically consists of taking a slice of sausage, like kielbasa, and wrapping a strip of thick bacon around it to form a little pork cup and then filling it with some [...]
