Kickoff Tailgate Season with Frank’s RedHot

This is a sponsored post in partnership with Frank’s RedHot and Her Campus Media. All words and opinions are my own.

Frank’s RedHot was a staple in my fridge all through my college years. It still is. It’s such an easy way to throw a delicious recipe together. Last summer, I shared my recipe for Buffalo Chicken Tacos and, in honor of football season, I’m sharing a recipe for easy buffalo chicken nachos that you can bring to your next football get-together.

Now, I definitely recommend that you eat these as soon as they’re out of the oven. We tried reheating them and they’re just not as good. However, they’re really easy to prep in advance if you want to bring them to a party – you just have to keep some parts separate. If you’d like to bring these to a party, I’d recommend putting them in the oven once you get there and then topping with the other ingredients.

My secret sauce for an added kick? Frank’s RedHot of course! I used both the Buffalo and Original flavors in this recipe. Frank’s RedHot Original is the #1 brand of Hot Sauce in America, and it’s easy to see why. Life is better when it’s hot and spicy and Frank’s RedHot adds the perfect kick. It’s the perfect blend of flavor and heat and made with only 5 ingredients. I got hooked on it a few years back and now I put that SPLAT on everything!

This recipe is a definite crowd-pleaser and everyone will love you for bringing it along. Even if you have another nacho recipe you love, Frank’s RedHot on the top will give it a little extra kick for my spicy-loving compadres. (Just ask before throwing it on top of a whole dish though!) Frank’s RedHot’s website also has a lot of other tailgate-friendly recipes you can try if nachos aren’t quite your thing. Check it out here! They’re all great to bring to a party to help people bond over delicious food.
