Superbowl Chili

For Superbowl we watched the game with a ton of friends at a Sam & Amber's House. It was super great. Enjoyed the food, game, and time spent with one another. On the menu: Chili! Amber made the Red & I made the White. Both were completely consumed! Many people asked for my recipe so I thought I would post it here. Seriously, was so good! It was the first time I had tried it and I was quite impressed. Recipe found here.
