Your favorite team is suiting out and gearing up for game day — and you should, too!

Get your gear and your grill ready to feed the hungry crowd that will gather to root them on.

First, you need to LOOK the part.

You’ve gotta get your oversized chef hat on so when you’re at the grill people know you mean business.

Then, make sure you have all the proper grilling utensils clean and ready. A grillmaster has got to have his tools.

Most of all, you’ve got to select the right meat for the job. Whether you’re doing beef tip appetizers, nice steaks or burgers and hot dogs — the quality (and quantity) of meat on hand is essential.

Your team deserves only the best … and why go to all the trouble of suiting out and cooking up a storm if the meat is subpar?

Start here for tailgating essentials and then check out these premium steaks and these appetizer ideas.

They should create a tailgating or game-watching party that’s sure to be a winner every time!
