1. Smoked Sausage Links - there are so many varieties. Elgin, Lockhart, Luling, Llano all have great ones, but if you are ever passing through Giddings, you will be hard pressed to beat City Meat Market.

2. Jalepeño Poppers - filled with cream cheese, pimento cheese or pan sausage!

Great topic. For tailgating I am with you on the smoked sausage and I am a big fan of City Meat Market and Luling. Both are great. I also always have to have chips and queso at a tailgate. I like ribs, but I tend to favor them for a watch party at the house over an actual tailgate. 

 

Also - we can hope that @Gerry Hamilton doesn't see this thread because we all know what his answer will be...

I am planning on sending him a Duke's Mayo cap!

@Gerry Hamilton one of these is coming your way... pick your Poison!

I also love tailgates with a Cajun Flair. Boudin Balls or Jambalaya

Best jalapeno poppers I ever made were with Dungeness crab.  Never cream cheese!!  Just real cheese.  I miss Seattle but seafood prices are exorbitant everywhere now!!

We did a big shrimp boil several years ago. It was awesome.. We have also done Gumbo and Jambalaya.
