[IowaNiceHawk]

Going to try bringing the grill, this weekend.

What's a good grilling meat for the middle of day?

I've become a fan of the sausage fatty. Keep this in mind for an 11am kickoff (Allow 30-40 minutes of grill time after prep). Take 1.5 tubes of jimmy dean sausage (hot, sage, maple, it all works! DO NOT get a cheaper substitute). put it in a gallon ziploc, and roll it flat...well, here this video shows it better (with 70's porn music!)

If grilling for a lot of people go with smaller, bites of meat that cook quickly. Grab some top sirloin or ribeye and pre-cut.

Also, grab a couple bunches of asparagus, lemon pepper, and olive oil. Wrap in aluminum foil with a little olive oil, generous sprinkling of lemon pepper, and throw on grill. These are great if looking to attract women to your tailgate. They work better than a puppy.

A tailgate without great Brats? I was in the Waterloo Sam's Club over the weekend and they have fresh Usinger brats. They are the gold standard, and at a reasonable price.

At home, take the brats and boil them in beer. Then at the tailgate, slap them on the grills. Tastes great and makes sure that they are done all the way through.

Usinger's are the best.

I have a vendor from the Milwaukee area. Every Holiday season, I look forward to the gift baskets from Usinger's!!

Saturday I'm going with some grilled Italian sausages on a toasted hoagie with charred red peppers, onions with fresh mozzarella and marinara.

For 11:00 am games however I buy some cinnamon Dutch apple sausages on a toasted hoagie, cheese, a scrambled egg and a little Valentina hot sauce.

Agree.. but don't boil them, simmer instead.

I like to grill/smoke Cajun Boudin with jalapenos.

I also like to grill weed from my bong pipe!

Doing pork butt for sandwiches and 10lbs chicken wings for Ia St. Doing them at home and then heating them up when we get there,more time for games and socializing.

Nothing beats goat on a stick. My wife marinates it in a curry overnight before it hits the grill.
