Happy Thanksgiving!!! I hope you are having a wonderful holiday full of lots of amazing food!! This is a big holiday week, and it is also a big football week. It’s rivalry week!! Most importantly in my world, it is Iron Bowl week. The Iron Bowl is a fancy name for the Auburn – Alabama game. It is THE game here in the state of Alabama.

Have you heard of bird dogs? No? Well, a bird dog is like a hot dog but you use chicken tenders instead of hot dogs. Chicken = Bird, so Bird Dogs. These BBQ Bird Dogs are PERFECT for tailgating in the parking lot. You can assemble them on-site with ease!

Here is a play-by-play for you. I use a kitchen torch to melt the cheese when I am not at home. It works great! If you are at home you can pop the BBQ Bird Dogs in the oven for a few minutes or under the broiler.

We LOVE these BBQ Bird Dogs. We top them with some fried jalapeños for a kick. If you don’t like fried jalapeños, you can swap them out for some french fried onions. Either way, these are sure to score a touchdown at your tailgate this weekend!
