With college back in session and pro football starting back up, we’re sure you’ll have plenty of opportunities for some classic tailgating as you head out to watch your favorite teams.

Whether you prepare them ahead of time and keep warm, or bring along a grill to cook up your food later in the day, sliders are great for every type of tailgate.

Check out the below list of tailgating slider recipes, sorted conveniently by category. You’re sure to find something perfect for your next tailgate; from those early mornings in need of a quick breakfast, to meat or veggie-lover options, we’ve included it all!
