BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Sept. 19, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Shipt, the retail tech company that connects customers to delightful delivery from their favorite stores, and Visa, a world leader in digital payments, are working together to bring a winning experience to tailgaters and college football lovers this season. From exclusive recipes and delivery options to sweepstakes and pop-ups on college campuses, Shipt and Visa are bringing the ultimate tailgating experience to life. The Shipt & Visa Ultimate Tailgate Lounge, an engaging and interactive tailgate space, will be featured on campus for the Clemson @ Florida State game on September 23, the Miami @ UNC game on October 14, and the Alabama @ Tennessee game on October 21.
As part of the experience, popular Chef and TV Host Jeff Mauro will share tailgate tips, traditions, and big game recipes to enjoy whether you’re at home or prepping for a tailgate. Chef Mauro has created a new Smoked Triple Pepper Aged Cheddar Dip and riffed on a fan favorite to share an exciting twist to a classic Mauro recipe: Maple Pepper Pig Candy BLT Sliders with Giardiniera Aioli. Full recipe details can be found here. To take the in-person lounge experience up a notch, Chef Mauro will be making a special appearance at the first stop in Clemson, SC on Saturday, September 23. Fans can watch Chef Mauro whip up a tailgate recipe, engage with audience members, and snap pictures during the meet-and-greet.
“I am excited to be working with Shipt and Visa teams to bring people and food together in one of my favorite settings– tailgates,” said Chef Jeff Mauro. “It doesn’t get any better than making great memories and great food while cheering on your favorite team, and my recipes will help fans do just that this season and beyond.”
