Suggestions for Grab and Go Takeout Food for Tailgate Tomorrow.

[R1766U]

Headed to the lots straight from work tomorrow. Usually bring the grill and whole nine yards. This time, we’ve just decided to grab premade food to eat before heading into the game. We almost never do this— so looking for recommendations.

Wanted to hear what people suggest for a grab n go tailgate—specifically looking for food on our way towards the stadium (East Brunswick, New Brunswick, Highland Park or Piscataway) that I can stop and grab on my way.

Not a big group, only about 8-10 of us. Don’t want something that needs a special days ahead order obviously.

Thanks

Order a bunch of bolis from Stuff Yer Face - they stay warm for quite awhile (I get them and they're always warm when I get to Metuchen, 15 minutes away). Same with FatCats from RU Hungry on campus.

We usually stop at White Rose in Highland Park on our way to the parking lot, but that's for breakfast sandwiches. You can get dinner there too if you're feeling full-size White Castle style burgers (caramelized onions), cheesesteaks, etc. Personally I would avoid driving through New Brunswick, you'll have rush hour traffic mixing with gameday traffic.

Tastees, White Rose, Jersey Shore BBQ isn't bad either (live up the street and got it the other night for dinner)

The system (White Rose) is where you go after the game, not before.

How about Tastee Subs on Plainfield Ave?

It works for us for pregame since normally we get there in the morning, so we bring breakfast sandwiches from White Rose. Speaking of Tastee, that's actually what we're doing for tomorrow's game. I just didn't mention it because it seems out of the way for the OP.

I can appreciate what you are doing. It's just that at night after a big win The White Rose System gradually fills with folks heading home from the game. Special times.

After Louisville was indescribable

He said Highland Park, and it's close enough. Thought about recommending it. JSBBQ is good stuff. Get some brisket, pulled pork BBQ and some rolls, and good to go.

BTW, we used to pick up White Rose when we worked at the RUFD on Titsworth Place way back. Best part of the experience was the order would be in a thick carboard tray box that is used for cases of soda. The grease would often be soaked through the bags and the box. Food of the Gods. My better half never had White Rose during her entire 4 years at Rutgers. Senior week, bought it as a treat- the grease did not agree with her. It's something you have to build up to, I guess.

Good to know, didn't realize it's a postgame destination, and I used to live around the corner. I still go through Highland Park on my way home so I'll keep it in mind, thanks!

Shelby begs to differ. There is no such thing as a wrong time for a visit to White Rose. Anyhow, bolis, subs or even a few pizzas would do the trick.

That raises a good question.

What's a Titsworth?
Answer: That depends on a lot of things.


Can remember giving directions to the fire station (sadly, no longer a fire station) before the interwebs days and navigation devices. The operative phrase: "No, it's not a joke, we are on Titsworth Place. I'm not being a boob or joking, and not going to milk this out. . . . ."

Well the last two sentences, I just made up. 🤣

 

[WhiteBus]

On games where I wasn't parked the night before the game day stop was always Little Teddy's Sub Shop across from Scarlet Fever.
I'll get to Scarlet Fever today but sadly Little Teddy's has been gone a long time. Great subs at great prices.

 

[GoodOl'Rutgers]

It's not 10AM and now I am hungry for stuff a thousand miles away.

 

[OJRutgers]

The Subway on Easton Ave.

 

[BigRnj]

Sapores in Middlesex

 

[newwavedave1]

Abro will be grabbing his usual bag of chips.

 

[yesrutgers01]

Just get a good deli- get a handful of subs and wraps - ask for condiments on the side and each sandwich cut in half. And get appropriate sides and chips and you would be good to go.

I am spoiled up where I am in Franklin Lakes- we all know the go to place up here for a last minute grab and go- Market Basket

 

[Leonard23]

Just grab food from the food trucks at the Boardwalk.

I lived on Columbia St. in grad school a block from White Rose. Yum. I indoctrinated our son in White Rose food when he was young and my wife is from HP, so she needed no encouragement to go, so we've gone often over the years and still go a few times a year.

When we don't have enough time, we do a Jersey Mike's sub-gate. Keep it simple!

Titsworth is an official measure of volume in Australia and New Zealand.

I was disappointed last night or too early. Maybe the generations have turned.
Still the best FF
