Nothing screams fall or football season quite like chili, so we’ve teamed up with Chef Drew from Grilla Grills to create a delicious chili recipe featuring Four Roses Small Batch. Chef Drew holds degrees from The Art Institute of New York City, The International Wine Center and a management degree in food and beverage from NYU. His culinary experience spans from four- and five-star restaurants in France, NYC, Jackson Hole, Wyoming and Alaska.
