CULN3017 - DIY Series: Tailgating Made Simple

Course Description

DIY stands for “do it yourself.” These processes all involve learning about and gaining the skills that are ordinarily held by professionals.

While there are endless online tutorials that show everything from crafts to large-scale DIY projects, they often gloss over the difficulties that can be encountered.

Doing things on your own also allows you to avoid paying someone else to do it, but doing it well can involve learning a range of skills and techniques. Doing it yourself keeps you from outsourcing these routine tasks to outside professionals. In this particular segment, you will learn how to put together the ultimate tailgate party. Whether you are at the beach or your favorite sporting event. Other outcomes will include: menu planning, procurement lists, preparation time, and proper food handling and storage.  Have fun!
