But here’s Stubb’s Bar-B-Q’s take on grilling up asparagus spears …
After all that happened in our country Monday, with the mass shooting in Las Vegas, the start of postseason for our nation’s pastime couldn’t come at a better time, if you ask me. I realize a large portion of sports fans gets more wrapped up in football this time of year than anything else. But …

We admit it, we are a little sentimental here at Inside Tailgating. We love a feel-good story, especially when it involves people gathering around grills to celebrate football, friendships and in this case, weathering storms. What the people of Florida and Texas have endured the past several weeks, not to mention those living in or …

We here at Inside Tailgating talk a lot about grills and coolers and the latest gear and gadgets that make tailgating simpler and easier.

Last weekend we got a stellar kickoff to college football, and the excitement just keeps coming as the NFL opens its 2017 season this weekend.

According to NASA, this is the first time a total solar eclipse will travel coast to coast over the continental U.S. since 1918. We won’t see …
It’s not often we at Inside Tailgating post articles about high school football tailgating, but today we make an exception for the “Winnersville Classic.” That’s the catchy name for the Valdosta-Lowndes County game tonight, featuring one of the biggest high school rivalries in the country. I can say that because I’ve been there and I’ve …
So I was curious about what kind of local food and beverage offerings there would be at the PGA Championship this week at Quail Hollow Club here in Charlotte, just a few miles away from where I live. Since I’m seven months pregnant, I can’t exactly partake of the local brew right now, but I …

So it’s not exactly a tailgating-friendly environment, when fans can’t even drive their cars through the front gates at Quail Hollow for next week’s PGA Championship, they’ve got to take shuttle buses, but as a gal who grew up in Charlotte and is raising a family here now, we’ve got to take a moment to …
Wouldn’t a trip to New Mexico be nice about now? A Sante Fe breeze? Such a unique part of the country? Well, we might not be able to pull off a spontaneous trip for you, but we can at least give you a taste of New Mexico. We are entering the height of “Hatch Chile” …
Cornhole isn’t just a game you play at tailgates anymore. It’s becoming a serious sport. The latest and strongest example came last Saturday on televisions across the country when ESPN2 broadcast the “Championship of Bags” of the American Cornhole League.
