Unexpected Tailgating Snacks We Swear Are Worth It

There are a thousand and one articles out there for what snacks to bring to a tailgate party. I’m not going to repeat anything that has been said before. At least not that I’ve ever seen. I’d be truly shocked if anyone has shared these options as actual recommendations before because while I am grounded in some reality, it’s not a reality that many people share.

I wanted to go big, bold, and beautiful with this one. These snacks will make for the ultimate tailgate party because it’ll never be done again and may never be outdone. They’re creative, they’re unique, but gosh dang, do I share these with my full chest. Here are our favorite snacks that’ll make for an unforgettable tailgate party.

White Castle Crave Case

LISTEN. I know that tailgating is all about grilling but let’s be honest with ourselves. Would you rather forgo all the festivities and work the grill all day long or get a Crave Case from White Castle to bring 30 iconic sliders to the function? The former? Okay, well I tried. It would be revolutionary, though! And I would personally love it so I’m all for this option.

Kirkland Signature Beef Dinner Franks

This isn’t a mistake. We’re still leaving the grill in the dust. We’re making these Costco hot dogs the old fashioned way―in a vat of water. Fill up a crockpot and set it to low and slow. Let these babies simmer! If you want the full experience then you’ll have to get a stack of soda cups and your Venmo out to start charging $1.50 for the combo.

Cedar’s Foods Reserve Falafel Dip

I would borderline bring falafel to the tailgate party as it is but there’s something much more whimsical to this dip form. Grab some pita chips, or even actual pita cut into strips, to set alongside it for an easy dipping combo. It’s filling but a way to bring a new flavor profile into the mix that’s not just chicken wings done a thousand different ways.

Big Mozz Nuggets

Bite-sized mozzarella sticks. What a wondrous creation. Just think of these as the cheese version of pigs in a blanket. Put a cup of tooth picks next to a little crockpot full of these nuggets and watch your friends’ minds get blown. Welcome to the tailgate, mozzarella sticks.

Pillsbury Football Cutout Cookies

These Pillsbury cookies may be football shaped but I’d honestly be surprised if anyone has actually ever used them for a tailgate party until now. I just don’t think they go that well with endless amounts of beer. More on that in a second but for now, we’ll put them to good use for our get together.

SIXSIP Hard Refresher Variety Pack

Put the beer down and have some fun with things. Beer is filling anyway so these SixSip hard refreshers will be much easier on your stomach. This variety pack comes with watermelon kiwi, strawberry lemonade, peach mango, raspberry ‘rita, pineapple passionfruit, and summer berry flavors. That means everyone can find the right fit for their tastes!
