Wild Hogs – Spicy Chili

John Travolta, William Macy, Martin Lawrence and Tim Allen star in this hysterical comedy about living life and living free. These friends are weekend-warriors who live completely different lives from one another. Doug is a dentist who has a hard time taking any time off for himself. Dudley is a computer programmer and is scared of women. Bobby works for The Firm, AKA, a plumbing company, and let’s his wife wear the pants. And then there’s Woody. The one who’s living the fantasy. His wife is a supermodel and he’s rolling in the dough…until he finds out he’s broke.

With all that aside, the one thing these guys share is passion for the open road. But over the years, each have settled down into a suburban lifestyle and are looking to bring back some edge. Known as “The Wild Hogs,” these guys zip up their leather jackets and strap on their skull caps for a cross-country motorcycle adventure. With no destination in particular, they kick their cell phones to the curb and hit the road.

Little do they know, a lot can happen on the road to nowhere. Not only does their tent go up in flames and they are found spooning by a gay cop, but they also encounter the Del Fuegos, a real bad-to-the-bone biker gang. When the Wild Hogs enter their bar, they find out very quickly that the Del Fuegos don’t take kindly to suburban wannabes. The Hogs aren’t looking for any trouble, but Woody has other plans. Will a harmless prank have them hunted down by the Del Fuegos?

In any matter, try this spicy chili recipe, inspired by Madrid, a small town the Hogs stop at along their trip. Word on the street, it’s so hot your throat will bleed. Just Kidding…
