The secret's out! Chili is one of Howard's favorite things. We can't blame him; a hot, savory, meaty way to enjoy the big game always sounds good to us. The recipe for My Tailgating Chili comes right from the kitchen of the big man himself, and now you get to make it at home for all your family and friends. "Tailgating" has never been so delicious!

- 1 pound ground beef chuck
- 1 pound bulk Italian sausage
