It’s FINALLY here! National Clams on the Half Shell Day! Yeah. No. We know you weren’t waiting around for today so you could throw some kind of “half shell baked” (did I write that?) party.

For the earliest chili, American frontier settlers used a recipe of dried beef, suet, dried chili peppers and salt, which was all pounded together, formed into bricks and dried.
