Midco Sports Network and the seven Sioux Falls Hy-Vee Stores have teamed up to provide Hy-Vee Tailgate Tips throughout the 2015-2016 sports season.  During every home SDSU and USD broadcast, on Midco SN, a Sioux Falls area Hy-Vee Chef will prepare something you can create for your guests when you watch the game.

A good dip can make or break your tailgate. Take the chill off with a fun but not too spicy Jalapeno Popper Dip? For a main course, flavor your chicken, pork or fish with an amazing Jamaican Jerk Rub.
