Captain Of The Tailgate: Oakland Raiders Edition

by Raymond St. Martin (Saint) on Oct 29, 2010 6:48 AM PDT in Captain of the Tailgate

When it comes to tailgating, it is difficult to beat the Silver and Black. The Coliseum parking lot is always a sight to behold on game days. The cloud of smoke is large enough to resemble a low hanging fog and the food that is being made under that smoke always blows me away.

What do you want? Tri-Tip? Carne Asada? Chicken? A whole pig? How about crab? That's right...fresh Dungeness Crab!!!

If you had a chance to see Tailgate Warriors (Pay special attention to the 3 minute mark) this week, you may have noticed that there was a group of guys in the parking lot preparing Tommy V's spicy crab. If you looked even closer, you'd see that they were wearing SB Nation aprons and one of them, Guy Fieri, called "The Saint".

Yep, that was me. My favorite tailgate that we do every year is the crab boil. We always do one when crab season kicks off and this season, on the 28th of November, it will be "Off Da Hook".

If you want the recipe, respond to this thread and I'll see if Woody will part with his secrets!!!

You are all welcome to join us this weekend at the Grill Iron Gang's tailgate.

Cheers, Saint!!!

That clip is many things but hardly romantic

at first I thought it was a promo ad for captain morgan rum but it just looked like some sort of video shoot to promote the model using some modern film techniques. What does that have to do with tailgating or, um romance? if she was getting banged on the beach and they drank rum afterwards, that would be romantic, kinda, maybe,

The Autumn wind is a Raider
Pillaging just for fun
He’ll knock you ’round and upside down
And laugh when he’s conquered and won.

Fuck all that!

Dudes, I’m a COOK. Nobody beats my BBQ, NOBODY! I don’t want the “recipe”, I want a fucking apron……..PERIOD! How much?, Where? Let me know. Guy Fieri? how long has he been cooking AND a Raider fan? Shit, I might just have to come to Oaktown from Wyoming to show Raider Nation what Ribs, Chicken and specialty salads are all about! And what team’s fans is MR. Fieri entertaining next week? Don’t be fooled Saint- You are too good for that ! Seriously, I hope you had a good meal from a great Chef , remember it! I will be out , I will cook, and it WILL be better. I just don’t know when. Lucky You! R.F.F.R.
