Troy Guard's Turkey Club
Troy Guard's Turkey Club
It’s officially football season, which mean we get to enjoy one of our favorite pastimes: tailgating. All season long, The Daily Meal will be speaking with chef supporters from Taste of the NFL about their favorite game day nosh, recipes, and tips. First up is chef Troy Guard, hailing from Denver, Colorado. In addition to being both a Denver Broncos and a Dallas Cowboys fan, Troy is the chef/owner of TAG Restaurant Group, which includes TAG Restaurant, Los Chingones, Sugarmill, Bubu, TAG Burger Bar, and Guard and Grace. When it comes to his favorite tailgating dish, Troy doesn’t believe you always have to break out the grill; he’s a sandwich guy. “There’s something about eating with your hands when watching football. It’s the way you would enjoy it in the stadium. I love the combination of ingredients on this sandwich, and it stays good from 1st to 4th quarter.” Here is Troy’s delicious recipe for a turkey club sandwich that you to tackle at home.
