10 Minute Tailgate: Duke
Friend of the Devil?
No, not really! But this weeks menu is tied directly into the Bull City. The recipe this week is some Bleu Deviled Eggs infusing a traditional deviled egg with bacon and bleu cheese to make them even more savory. The drink this week is a tobacco whiskey sour that is light, refreshing, and pays tribute to the tobacco history of Durham. Perfect to enjoy while the Hokies take on the Blue Devils this Saturday night!
