NCCU @ Duke. Home Opener! 6PM KO. Menu & Attendance

Post by TNTDevil » September 6th, 2015, 11:41 am

FINALLY! FOOTBALL!

Ahhh yes. Duke Football! New QB. "New" stadium. New season. And, we're already 1-0 with an impressive Road win @ Tulane!

So...a good ol' football game on a lovely September evening deserves a good, solid tailgate. And solid is what we're gonna deliver...

Most of you know the drill but, for those of you just joining us, let me 'splain the basics:
  • This thread is where you can inform others of your intentions to attend and with how many guests. You can also post here if you would like to contribute a dish (or dishes) to the gastronomic orgy which is the TBCC tailgate or, just take the simple route and generously feed the Tip Jar. :Clap:
  • Please, only post items you're bringing to share. If you're just bringing beverages and/or food for you and your party then there's no need to post that in this thread.
  • Because we need to insure we're bringing/preparing enough food for all whom attend, if your plan is to just donate $, please make your intentions (and the number in your party) known as soon as possible.
  • If you are bringing food that needs "grill time" (i.e. to be reheated/cooked), make that information known in your post.
...Okay, back to the NCCU game- For this tailgate we’re gonna’ try to serve the main courses around 3:30-4pm. Of course, they'll be stuff to eat from around mid-day forward, as you can see below, so come early and stay late-- we do!

Weather: At time of this posting 84 (29C) with a chance of showers. If you come early (which is suggested), don't forget the sunscreen and offerings for the low-humidity shrine. (Ed. Note: This one is lining up to be one sweet tailgate if the weather holds and the humidity stays in check.)

As always I'll keep updating this post with more weather and attendance information as we move through the week.

TBCC (+?)
Lunch/Appetizers: ABTs, Wings, Mexican Cheese Dip* (Queso Blanco) & Chips, Costcos;
Main Course: 60+lb pig, grilled chicken breasts, Spaghetti in Spicy Garlic Oil*;
Sides: Baked beans, Bacon Ranch Potato Salad*, Cole slaw*;
Desserts: Oatmeal Raisin Bars, Brownies, Chocolate Chip cookies, Brown Sugar cookies, Fruit Cobblers;
Beverages: Iced Tea, Water, SBMs*
(*Vegetarian)

Total attendees= 41

Ozzie +1. I've already bought the Costco's - TNT, are you also bringing Costco's separately or anticipating these? We're also bringing coconut cupcakes. Do we need to bring buns? Ketchup/mustard/relish - do you have them?

Can hardly wait! LGD! GTHc! :9f:

TNT - I mailed you the Card Gym parking pass and Chris's drop of pass yesterday. You should get them in Tuesday's mail. B-)

It is anticipated that all members and guests contribute at least $10 per person to the jar, even if you're bring food to share. This covers the cost of the food for the this tailgate, which TNT and CB&B have already put out the money for. They provide their grills, skills and labor out of their love of Duke football and tailgating, but are not footing the monetary bill for the expenses.

Party of 2 for us bringing a couple Hamiltons and Mrs. dd's almost-famous-by-now corn casserole that can be reheated or served at ambient temps. It'll serve at least 10-12 unless Ozzie gets to it first, then all bets are off :p .

Attn: AW (August West, not the root beer folks) and dpslaw-beer tasting and/or trading?

Of course any other interested parties are hoppily invited to the tasting table, too.

At this point, it looks like just Tom and I. If we have guests, I'll let you know. I'm bringing footlong hotdog buns, plus some Founders Black Rye and Uinta Punk'n for trading. Tom is bringing a bomber of Southern Tier Chocklat Oranj for tasting.

We'll feed the tip jar appropriately.

Excellent on attendance, trading and sharing frontiers. I'll have several to trade with interested parties and 1-2 bombers or 750 ml bottles for sharing.

Assuming you still want our 2nd pair of tix for the season, sir? ;)

allen, The Lovely Mrs. Murray, wolfpackdevil, and a friend of wolfpackdevil will all be present for the tailgate.

16 year old dtraindan will arrive late - being the only responsible person in the family the will be arriving after he gets off work (work? really, a job?); maybe just in time for the kickoff.

So, 4 for the tailgate.

We will bring money to feed the jar. I will also bring some shrimp (cold) with a black bean/corn/pico de gallo salsa.

Jon the Methodist has a graveside funeral at 2:00 on Saturday. My Mama just got home from Croatia and she is tired. Also, it is going to rain. We're not particularly excited about driving 2 hours, then walking through puddles and sitting through the rain to watch Duke play NCCU. So, we won't be there this week unless something drastic happens.
