What is Homegating?

Incorporating the time-honored tradition of tailgating and the fan spirit into a gathering with friends and family at home. Today, you can do all the things you love to do while tailgating, at home- aka: homegating. It’s a growing tradition for those that simply want to enjoy all the tailgating fun, from grilling to cornhole to fan spirit, in the comfort of their own homes. 

Homegating takes out the hassle of traveling, traffic and setting up equipment before an event. What you’re adding is comfort and convenience, while still finding a great way to escape the daily grind and enjoy community and fellowship.

🏈NEW POST🏈Football starts next week. YAY! Tailgating will look very different for about 99.9% of us this year. Most, if not all, of us will be tailgating at home. A homegate, as you will. I actually love a good homegate! We've been homegating for a few years now and I have to say, it isn't half bad. HDTV, air conditioning, cheap food, clean bathrooms!⁣
🏈⁣
Today I am sharing 2️⃣1️⃣ Homegating recipes to kick off the season! All of these recipes have been made hundreds of thousands of times by Plain Chicken readers. These are the best of the best! Like these French Dip Biscuits. Refrigerated biscuits, stuffed with roast beef, provolone, horseradish, and baked. Brush with melted butter when they are hot. Serve with a side of hot au jus. SO good!⁣

Reposted from sirdrnksalot A fun flavor-filled Saturday with family at "SirDrinksAlot Bar and Grill". Just missing our college sophomore daughter. Had some awesome wings from #chexgrillandwings. All three flavors - Jerk, Georgia Red and Cajun - were awesome with enough kick to make the beers even tastier. I spent the day enjoying some of my #local favorites: #mountaincandy from #sycamorebrewing,  #reptarjuice from #26acresbrewing, #juicyjay from #legionbrewing and #hopdropandroll from #nodabrewing. All are ipas, but all are unique, flavorful and awesome in their own ways. You can't go wrong with any of these #ncbeer choices! Cheers to a great Saturday (Except for the outcome of one basketball game). worldbeerdrinkingteam
