5.0 out of 5 stars Delightful and delicious tailgating October 12, 2012

By Tide Mom

When I received my new tailgating cookbook I wanted to try it out immediately. I turned to the Alabama section (roll tide!) and selected a coffecake recipe. It was wonderful! The recipe was simple but delicious. Had everything needed in my pantry---no trips to the store necessary. I know why this will be an awesome cookbook for tailgating foods if the recipes I sampled are any indication of the ease and goodness of all the recipes in this book. This cookbook proves all over again that quick and easy does not mean bland and tasteless.

As usual, Southern Living comes out with some great recipes, quick and easy ingredients and all the recipes make you want to start cooking. Even if not tailgating, this book is full of great Fall recipes that are very tempting and get you in the mood for some delicious new things to serve and enjoy.

I love this book! I even watched the corresponding tv show that promoted it (and loved that) I am a collector of cookbooks, especially Junior League cookbooks, this is on par with that!

3.0 out of 5 stars Nice. Interesting layout and organization. FYI: ULL Ragin Cajuns are featured as LSU's cocktail. January 3, 2013

By reeceegee

Imagine my surprise. The Ragin Cajun is featured as an LSU drink. The name is the moniker given to ULL Athletics by coach Falkenberry in the 60's.
It has nothing to do do with the Tigers. Would've liked to have seen the Bengal Breeze or Eye of the Tiger or Bengal Gold or something that actually signified LSU, not ULL.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best Tailgate Recipe Book December 18, 2012

By Constant Reader

Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought this book for extended family who love
to tailgate and try new foods. This book was so
entertaining and so full of wonderful recipes, I
had a hard time giving it up. I'll have to buy a
copy for myself even though I'm not a football fan.
The photos, history and ideas are the best I've seen
yet for any game day fan.
