Deluxe Grill Table Serves Up Some Real Tailgating Real Estate

The number one thing on a tailgating chef’s mind is food prep real estate, because it can be hard to come by on location. However, the Deluxe Grill Table sold at Camping World provides all room you need to prep up a stellar tailgate smorgasbord. In addition to a heat-resistant aluminum grill area and two side tables, it features a bottom rack for accessories, a paper towel rack, and hooks for grilling tools. This very useful table folds down to 37- by 19- by 6-inches, and also comes with a carrying case. The Deluxe Grill Table is not only good for tailgates, but also picnics, camping, and backyards.

Grill platform is 26 ¼” x 16”W x 32”H. Side tables measure 17 ¾”L x 16”W x 25 ½”H. Overall dimensions: 57 ¾”W x 19”D x 32”H. Folds to 37”W x 19”D x 6”H. You can currently get the table at Camping World for $99.99.

Another Tailgate Grill Ready to Battle

With football just around the corner, tailgate partiers everywhere are getting ready for another season of great tailgate grilling. Good eats are a prerequisite for tailgating, and the Safari Chef / Carri Chef are stepping up to the plate to do battle with the endless sea of tailgate grillers.

There are a few things that make these ergonomic grills from Cadac stand out. At the heart of these tailgate grills is a variable temperature burner fueled by disposable one-pound gas cylinders and a series of interchangeable cooking surfaces. Immediately above the burners is a rack that allows pots to be placed directly over the heat for simmering or boiling. If barbecuing is on the menu, just add the vector grill rack, and put on the hamburgers. There's a flat grill for frying or baking, and on the reverse side is a ribbed grill for fat-free cooking. If the chef wants to flex his culinary muscles, both grills will also do Asian style tailgate stir-fry. All cooking surfaces are non-stick, easy to clean and dishwasher safe.

The system also comes with an LED lighting system, which includes a stop, turn, tail, and license plate lights.

Drive Thru Beer Run with Speedy Cooler

Here is a great way to tackle rough terrain when tailgating miles from the stadium for those big games. Plus, it doesn't hurt to show off during the tailgate party with a few doughnuts. This got me thinking about what it would take to modify a Cruzin' Cooler into a mini-monster truck.

The Ultimate Tailgate Cooler

Although this may look like your “standard-issued” tailgating cooler, its dense 2” insulation lid and case will prove otherwise. The Coleman 50 Quart Ultimate Extreme Cooler is capable of keeping ice in your cooler for up to 6 days with temperatures reaching 90°F! We took this cooler out for a test run on some of the hottest days Florida has to offer, and it performed as advertised and then some.

Its durable carrying handles are recessed for storage, and the foldaway tow handle offers comfort and one-hand operation. And if you want to talk about storage, this tailgate cooler is capable of storing up to 72 cans with ice. In addition to this, the lid is designed to accommodate 24” elastic cords for additional dry storage. This Coleman cooler also offers extra deep beverage holders to insure drinks stay in place even while tilting the lid to pull out a few more cold ones.

We give the Coleman 50 Quart Ultimate Extreme Cooler two enthusiastic thumbs up!

SEC GrillTopper Gets Some TV Time

Our good friends over at SEC GrillToppers got some nice press on a local morning show! Julia Hurley appeared on Daytime Today Tri-Cities in Tennessee to demonstrate some of her tailgating products including their star product, the Grill Toppers. Check out the full story we did on her and her Tailgate Grill Toppers back in early May.

Tailgating Tools: The Grillslinger Sport

Great tailgating tools do not necessary make a great tailgate chef, but it sure does help. This tailgating gadget builds upon “The Original Grillslinger,” which was a twist between the classic tool belt and high-grade barbecuing utensils. A similar quality and finish keeps it in line with its older sibling while adding new features such as an adjustable beverage cooler, and much sportier belt with a PVC logo sewn on the 'buckle' position. It still has a Pro-Flipper (Spatula) & Speed Tongs, as in the Original Grillslinger, with two lock-and-load inserts that will have you ready to tackle any size tailgate party.
