Gator Pit of Texas began with the idea of a tailgating grill/smoker over 10 years ago, and the rest was history. They created one of the most functional and unique Barbecue pits on the market that allows most pickup truck tailgates, SUV rear doors, and van doors to open without having to remove these amazing tailgating smokers or grills.
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.
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.
As if Texas needed another "bigger in Texas" moment, here is a demonstration of some of the over the top grills seen at Texas Tech's Raidergate. Proof once again that everything is bigger in Texas. This video may be a bit old, but as we get closer to the season, there is nothing like these videos to draw up some fall emotion.
Fire Wire Grilling Skewers are flexible skewers that add some extra real estate to your grill while solving many of the food handling problems associated with conventional straight skewers. They’re great to load up in a zip lock bag before the tailgate, allowing your food to marinate on the ride over. Also, unlike wooden skewers that are one-time use or conventional skewers that rust over time, Fire Wire Grilling Skewers are stainless steel and last a lifetime.
This professional grade grilling tool is made from 100% stainless steel.

With Memorial Day coming up this weekend, there are going to be thousands of weekend warriors heading down to their local ballparks to do some grillin’, drinkin’, and ball game watchin’.
The Picnic Time Portagrillo Portable Gas Grill helps make this adventure less stressful with its ultimate use of space. With 263 square inches of cooking real estate, the compact and easy-to-carry grill is perfect for tailgate parties and picnics. Using propane as the fuel further increases the convenience offered by this grill, leaving messy charcoal at home. When it’s time to go, the Portogrillo slips into its bag, and off you go!
Although it’s tough to beat Picnic Time’s portable grill that also carries beer, this grill tops all others for portability.
The Grill Topper, by HGG Distribution, turns any ordinary grill into an NCAA branding machine. Simply set the Grill Topper on your existing grill rack, and place your chicken, pork, beef, or hot dog directly on the team logo, searing the logo onto the meat as it cooks to perfection! It’s incredible to see how something so simple can create something so deliciously spectacular. Just when you thought it was impossible to add another logo to just about everything you own, now you can add meat to that category.
Thanks to Steve from Louisville, KY for this great recipe!
This recipe takes a little prep work before leaving for the game, but it is well worth the work!

So the word "tote" normally shouldn't be incorporated into anything related to tailgating, but here is about the only exception. The Portable Grill Gourmet Tote features a waterproof cooler compartment, and comes equipped with high quality barbecue utensils, even some barbecue sauce to get things going in the right direction. The grill, gas tanks, and everything else pictured fits snugly into the tote for easy transport. Just add beer and ice!
