Meet Our Contest Winner: Nadine Mesch, The Tailgate Queen of Football Nation

Meet Nadine Mesch, a mother of four from Cincinnati, chef extraordinaire and the winner of Football Nation's very first tailgate competition.

Nadine beat out all our seasoned tailgate contenders with her grilled baby-back ribs and barbecue sauce. The sauce is made with Harpoon Brewery's great Munich Dark beer. (That's her with her lovely family in the photo.)

"These make-ahead, tender, fall-off-the-bone baby-back ribs, glazed in a flavorful sauce, are always the No. 1 request of my family and our friends," wrote Nadine in her winning submission. "The combination of a great football game and these ribs are a winning combination."
