Fall in America is filled with lots of traditions – but tailgating at all types of sporting events is one of the best. Normally tailgating would occur in large parking lots of super-sized stadiums or in rural fields supporting hometown teams, but this year your tailgate parties may be at home with a few close friends or family.  But no matter the size or location, Dresden & Company makes a great looking (and tasting) tailgate fun and easy! At the heart of D&Co. is gathering together with friends and family for simple entertaining. Our creative team has conjured up some new fall outdoor party recipes featuring D&Co. Kitchen gourmet foods. We hope you score a cheering touchdown with these mouthwatering fall winners!
