Soccer fans from around the globe are already getting ready for the opening matches of the 2010 FIFA World Cup this June in South Africa. With thirty two teams all across the world vying for the cup, the event looks to be possibly the biggest sporting event of the year, and fans can celebrate the first round of the tournament with a raucous tailgate party for their favorite teams.

Friday June 11 will see a fierce double header with host nation South Africa taking on perennial contenders Mexico, and South American powerhouse Uruguay facing off against the 2006 runner up France. Saturday June 12 will feature three games highlighted by the evening face off between England and the United States.

The matches could make for an interesting culinary treat for soccer fans depending on their favorite squad. Mexico fans can fire up some traditional Mexican party fare like burritos or nachos, while France supporters can line their wire chafing stands with quiche. England fans could throw some shepherd’s pie on a plate, while America fans warm Buffalo wings.

Whatever team one roots for, wire chafing stands are a must for any tailgate experience as the inexpensive and sturdy devices keep food hot throughout the game. Wire chafing stands are a key component to keeping meals hot while tailgating. The strength and durability of wire chafing stands heavily impacts how successful-and deliciously hot-someone’s meal will be.

“Besides thinner wire and less substantial welds designed to save material costs, typical wire chafer stands made overseas today are placing support legs in a very narrow pattern to save shipping and storage costs,” explains Skvorecz. “The risk to consumers is that this dramatically reduces their stability. The legs are just too close together for safety’s sake making it far too easy to accidentally tip over.”

Skorr wire chafer stands use a multi-patented design with four flat-bottomed corner legs for the widest stance and greatest stability in the market. Because the legs are placed in the corners with a stance significantly wider than typical overseas product, the wire chafer stand has maximum lateral support to prevent tipping and rollovers.

For greater structural integrity to prevent collapse, Skorr uses wire of significantly heavier gauge and stronger welds than imported competitors. For critical support of the food and steam trays, which can weigh up to 30 lbs. when fully loaded with heavy entrees and water, Skorr’s design provides eight vertical supports extending from the table to the upper rim vs. typically four for imported chafer products.

The company’s design also protects retailers and caterers from the fire hazard of customers trying to put lit fuel cans under the wire chafer stand, rather than placing the can, then lighting it. Since Skorr’s design avoids the vertical wires midway between the length of the foodtray, which is typical in imported wire chafer stands. This eliminates the drop hazard of customers snagging their thumbs on the wires.

Skorr wire chafer stands have won the Best Quality Award from the Professional Chefs Association. Unlike imported products – which can contain sharp edges due to handmade production processes – Skorr wire chafer stands are precision-made and environmentally friendly. Skorr wire chafer stands are irreplaceable for any party, tailgating, or catering event.
