After making BBQ chicken pizza last week my cravings for BBQ were satisfied, but only for BBQ pizza. My taste buds immediately started craving all my other favorite BBQ dishes from Memphis. Such cravings could not have come at a better time with #10DaysofTailgate in full swing! And better yet I had all kinds of great tools and ingredients to use thanks to our awesome sponsors.

Here’s what the rest of the team brought to the table…

These look fantastic! I love nachos and throwing the BBQ twist on them is so fun too! I like that you combined the Not Ketchup and the mustard.

I’m guessing tailgating means something totally different in the USA to what it means here in the UK. Here it means driving too close behind the car in front. No food involved!

Tailgating actually means both driving too closely behind another car and partying for sporting events. It gets the name from the driving version of the definition because it often occurs out of the trunks/beds of cars and trucks.

What a terrific re-imagined version of a standard. Love the idea, and can almost taste the big BBQ flavor of my first wonderful messy bite. YUM!
