Mercedes-Benz of Baton Rouge Tailgate
ben 17 Nov 2008 | : Tailgating
I stopped by the Mecedes-Benz tailgate and met with Matthew Standefer Executive Sous Chef for Four Seasons catering. This was their first time catering for the Mercedes-Benz tailgate. Their menu featured Cuban marinated shrimp kabobs, New York Strip kabobs, and grilled barbecue brisket pizza.
“We were really out here to pay homage to our existing parts customers and ‘conquest customers’ to a tailgate party so they would remember us when placing their next order for Mercedes-Benz parts” said Gwen Wild, Business Development Manager for Mercedes-Benz of Baton Rouge.

Tailgate of the Week (LSU vs. Bama): Good Times Tailgating
ben 17 Nov 2008 | : Tailgating
We have our first repeat of tailgate of the week. The Good Times Tailgating crew was in full swing getting ready for the Bama game. I got some good footage of the tailgate dancing as usual and learned about a new dance called the “stanky leg.”
There were even some Alabama fans that gave props to this tailgate, saying “we could only wish we did it like that.”

I walked up to the Krewe of Miss-Lou tailgate just in time to catch the last round of their dance contest. There were a ton of people on hand to watch this week with 300 dollars and a bottle of crown going to the winner.

Boiled Crabs Recipe
By the time football season is in full swing, the crab season is doing the same. Many people prefer not to eat boiled crabs because there is too much work involved for so little meat. I enjoy the sweetness of the crab meat. For the LSU-Florida game, I decided to pick up a bushel of crabs and boil them at the house. It is pretty difficult to bring out a boiling pot and keep the crabs alive all day while tailgating. You can boil the crabs beforehand (or purchase some that are already boiled), put them in an ice chest, and they will hold for quite a while.
Check out the recipe and pictures below. Everybody in Louisiana boils their seafood differently. Let us know how you boil by leaving a comment.
