Tailgating Done Right with Jersey Mike's!

With the return of the football season, we're welcoming the return of tailgating as well. We're pretty lucky to live a few blocks from the university, so when there is a home game, you're most likely going to find us parked on campus, rubbing elbows with fellow friends and fans alike. When there isn't a home game, we'll drive down to Mariah's university and partake in their football shindigs. It's a given that during the fall, Saturday is strictly for tailgating here.

We all know that the best part of tailgating is the food! It always amazes me to see people who bring their grills, or even set up an entire working kitchen from their trucks, but this girl right here likes to keep the food good and simple. When I head to the game, I want to be footloose and fancy-free. I don't want to mess with slaving away in my kitchen all morning prepping tailgating food, or have to mess with lugging a grill to the game. When I return home for the night, I'm tired. I don't want to have to wash out the slow cooker or pots and pans. That's just too much work when you just want to have a day of fun with your friends, rooting for your team. That's why I'm kind of obsessed with Jersey Mike's catering.

With Jersey Mike's catering, I can place my order online the night before the game, and it's ready for pick-up the next morning. I can just swing by Jersey Mike's on my way to the game and know that I've got a delicious spread that's going to thrill my friends and family. The best part is, I didn't have to lift a finger to put it together.

Using Jersey Mike's online catering service is as easy as it gets. Last weekend, I chose to order Subs By The Box, which feeds 10 people. With this option, I could choose 4 different sandwich options, so I could offer a wide variety to our tailgating guests. Because my guests all have different dietary needs, I really appreciate that I can customize each sandwich pick, like leaving off the oils, adding pickles, or getting gluten-free bread for my friends who have a gluten intolerance.

In addition to their scrumptious sub sandwiches, Jersey Mike's also has a good variety of sides and beverages to round out your tailgating needs. I added several bags of chips, a cookie tray, and bottles of water and tea, so the only thing I had to do as far as putting the tailgating meal together was dump a bag of ice into the cooler. Does it really get any easier than that?

When we don't need to feed as many people, Jersey Mike's also offers Subs by the Bag and Personalized Lunchboxes. I like the personalized lunchboxes for when we're tailgating out of town, since we don't need to feed a crowd. We can just order for our individual needs and hit the road.

The cold subs and sides that we get from Jersey Mike's catering menu are perfect to take along to your tailgate, picnic, or family road trip.
