Tailgating Recipes For The Tennessee/Georgia Tech Game


The Chick-fil-A Kickoff Classic Weekend in Atlanta continues on Labor Day Monday with Tennessee vs Georgia Tech.

After an exciting Alabama vs FSU matchup on Saturday, I hope the clean up crews have been working hard to get ready for the Vol and Yellow Jacket fans traveling to Atlanta on Sunday.

Avid FSU fan, Leann sent a photo from their tailgate outside Mercedes-Benz Stadium.

Even though Georgia Tech’s colors are white and gold, they also have a deep navy…many times almost looking black.  I think the colors on this hot dip gives the feeling of yellow and black.

This dip is a hit whenever we have a family get together and I got it from an Ole Miss grad.  This is his mom’s favorite go to appetizer.  It is simple too!
