Chili is the perfect one pot dish for football season. Use this tasty chili recipe to be the show-stopper at your next tailgate!
Farmers are often thought of as the original tailgaters, eating many meals on their tailgates. This recipe comes from Glass Barn featured farmer Joe Tuholski's family. Joe is a third generation farmer and works the land with his dad, two uncles and a cousin in Northern Indiana. Regal Movie Theaters pop every kernel of popcorn his family grows.
