TailgateJoe

Anyone who has been to one of our Tailgate Parties since 2011 has seen the massive commercial stainless steel grills we use to grill up lots of great fresh food for the masses. These grills come from Crown Verity, a company known for quality commercial grade grills and outdoor cooking products manufactured in Canada. For [...]

Check out this idea for the holidays, a spiral ham kicked up a little with some BBQ spices and grilled outside. This post won’t include any actual recipes as recipes for rubs and glazes can be found all over the web or easily bought. First we took a bone-in spiral ham. The great thing about [...]

Link to the original announcement As a native Staten Islander, the TGJ gang wanted to help bring a little comfort and relief to some of the hardest hit areas of NYC in our home borough. Once I had power restored late Friday I ran to restaurant depot and bought up 1,000 hot dogs and buns, [...]

With a group of over [...]

I have been tailgating regularly for Jets games since 2000. Always having enjoyed cooking and hosting parties, I always gravitated towards organizing and cooking at these tailgates. In that time, I have borrowed, bought, and used a wide range of devices for cooking out in the parking lot. As the group of friends grew year [...]

It has to be something that we can make for the 300+ people at our parties, but still fresh and [...]
