Today I am playing around with a new cut of beef for the first time, tri-tip. It is a small roast that comes from the bottom sirloin and weighs about 2lbs per side of beef. Now, most of you are probably scratching your heads and thinking “why have I never heard of this cut of [...]

Unfortunately every season has to come to an end. It was disappointing to end the season with a meaningless game against a meaningless opponent, but the season was a success when you look at the expectations of this team at the beginning of the season. We had a smaller than usual turnout at about 100 [...]
The Jets bounced back from a bad loss to take on the Raiders in week 14 and pull out a win in what might have been one of their best offensive performances of the year. We were lucky that the cold blustery conditions of the previous few days subsided and gave us a relatively mild [...]
Week 13 started out great with perfect weather and a great tailgate. Unfortunately the Jets didn’t hold up there end of the bargain as we got clubbed not just by any team, but hated rivals the Miami Dolphins. As far as the tailgate party, this one was a little special as we served what I [...]
Last season we came up with our first signature burger, the TGJ Lot Burger. It was a big hit when we served it at our parties. For the end of the 2013 season I wanted to do another special burger, and here it is, The Tailgate Double. I have to shamefully admit my most guilty [...]
November is here as we get into the thick of the season. Nobody saw this game coming as the Jets upset the Saints and grabbed the win at home! This was one of our larger crowds as we hit over 300 fans joining our party. Everyone enjoyed some great food as we prepared our smoked [...]
Another great tailgate party and a win by the NY Jets over our division rival New England Patriots! We served some great food, like our wildly popular teryaki skirt steak and peanut slaw tacos, homemade breakfast maple sausage, and Lafrieda burgers, as well as some first time items like Esposito’s bratwurst and hot wings straight [...]
What a let down! The Jets came into the game at 3-2 with a real chance to get some momentum in a season that started with low expectations. Unfortunately, the Steelers had other plans, as the Jets dropped to 3-3 and the Steelers won their first game of the season. The tailgate party was a [...]
The Jets came into week 3 at 1-1 after a heartbeaking loss to the heated division rival New England Patriots. Week 3 saw another divisonal game against the Buffalo Bills. It was a great day for a game and the Jets pulled out the win! The tailgate party before the game was also great, with [...]
It was a great day to kick off the season and once again the Jets were home for week 1 in the NFL. As far as the game, it was full of story lines as the Jets started their rookie QB Geno Smith and Ex Jet and former best defensive player Darrelle Revis returned with [...]
