Take your tailage to the next level, but how? Some grilling good recipes



MILWAUKEE -- Brewers Opening Day is just about three weeks away which begs the question: are you ready to tailgate? Suzy Shelstad, the first female grillmaster at the Helm of the Johnsonville Big Taste Grill, joins Real Milwaukee with some savory recipes you can cook up outside the stadium.

This year's Johnsonville Big Taste Grill (BTG) kick off marks the 23rd season that the 53,000-pound semi-turned-grill will hit the road for another tour across the country to raise money for charities. However, when the tour opens on March 24 in Tucson, Ariz., the grill will be home to its first ever female grillmaster, Suzy Shelstad.
