Meatballs like this have been a staple for our “My Big Fat Greek Wedding”-esque family for quite a while now.

For a colder, rainy tailgate, the perfect companion is hot buttery brandy with the perfect blend of fall spices that can confuse you, for a minute, if you close your eyes, that you’re drinking hot cider.

Inspired by TGI Friday’s “Signature Glaze”, this glaze is the perfect thing to brush on chicken or pork right before putting it on a sandwich bun with lettuce and tomato.

A nice drink for the summertime, and especially appropriate for a tailgate at Villanova.
