What You'll Ned
- 1-2 Gibsons Prime Angus Strip Steaks or Filet Medallions

- Horsaeradish aioli or garlic mayo

How to Make It at the Tailgate
- Grill Like a Pro
Fire up that tailgate grill. Pat your steaks dry, season generously with Gibsons Signature Seasoning Salt, and grill to your preferred temp (medium-rare hits perfectly for sliders). Let rest, then slice thin across the grain.
2. Set Up the Extras
While the steak rests, warm up caramelized onions in a skillet on the side burner (or bring them ready-made). Toast slider buns on the grill for that perfect crunch.
3. Assemble Like a Champ
Spread aioli on buns, stack on sliced steak, onions, and your favorite toppings. Secure with toothpicks so they don’t fall apart on the way to your folding table.
4. Serve & Celebrate
Keep sliders warm in foil trays until the crew is ready to eat. Serve hot, cold, or right out of the tray while the pre-game playlist blasts.
