Football season is around the corner and nothing says team spirit quite like a good tailgating session before a big game. Midwesterners have it down to an art and packing the cooler is like a ritual. Beer? Check. Ice? Check. More beer? Check.
But there is more to a party than beer. We also know cocktails made with the right kind of liquor can be equally as refreshing. We vote for your favorite bottle of whiskey, or two.

Beer and whiskey don't go well with an empty stomach. Here are a couple unique recipes to fix-up before your next tailgating adventure:
Mini Italian Beef Sandwiches with Pepperoncini Slaw
Place beef and juices in a medium saucepan; break up any large pieces. Add stir-fry vegetables, 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning and the crushed red pepper. Heat through just to boiling. Meanwhile, for slaw, in a medium bowl, combine coleslaw mix, pepperoncini peppers and liquid, and 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning. To serve, spoon meat mixture on roll bottoms. Top with coleslaw mixture; add roll tops.
Place ingredients in a slow cooker on high, stirring occasionally. Once dip is hot and all the ingredients are melted together, you can set the cooker on warm while serving. Garnish with more shredded cheddar and green onions. Serve with crackers, tortilla chips, or veggies.
