Tega Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Some people go all out. What does your league do? Please list desserts too (not meant to be dirty). I'm trying to think of what desserts go with beer. I know some of you would say that's all you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tega Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 I posted it here because it's for Draft Day (oh, and I didn't realize there was a food forum - that surprises me). Sitting down for a dinner or tailgate is different from eating with fellow teamowners on Draft Day . Some foods wood be a pain in the butt to serve on draft day. What works for all of you? It's all about making Draft Day as enjoyable as possible. Where do you have your draft: a teamowner's home, bar, or other place? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

i_am_the_swammi Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Wifey does meatballs and Italian raost beef in crockpots...awesome. We then have a fresh-baked tray of Philly soft pretzels to munch on throughout the draft....awesome with some chilled beverages. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SheikYerbuti Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 My house is the draft home for 3 years now. 2 years ago we did Perogies with onions and peppers. Last year we did Lasagna. This year I'm going grilled chicken, burgers and hot dogs and stromboli. I'm also doing a vat of pasta salad. As for deserts, it's pretty much bags and bags of doritos and chips. Last year I did a simple queso sauce in a fondue pot. . .it was basically a block of Velveeta and a jar of salsa melted together. That went over very well. I have a friend who's not into football but who's good in the kitchen come over and act as chef/server/busboy. I figure it's the most exciting day of the year, might as well put out a little bit of a spread. At the end of the draft we tell the cheap bastages to cough up a few bucks for the food, and we usually wind up turning a profit. The Sheikette is very good at shopping sales. What are you planning?

Tega Posted August 20, 2007 Author Share Posted August 20, 2007 We always have the draft at one of the teamowner's home. Burgers, hotdogs, pizza, munchies, beer. Usually some of the guys bring something to add to the party. It changes from year to year. There's got to be some dessert that goes with beer (again, not meant to be dirty). I have to come up with ideas that have the preparation time done before the party starts. Crock pot food may be the way to go. Keeps it warm all during the draft. I've been at opening home games for College Football where other some fantasy football leagues have their draft during their tailgating. They looked like they were having a blast. A bunch of people end up watching them. That's a great way to do it, but if it rains then they're in trouble unless they have a Winnebago (spelling?).

Chief Dick Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Not to be Master of the Obvious or nothing, but asking about what dessert to serve on draft day would constitute the gheyest thing ever posted here at the huddle.
