Tiger by the Tailgate
Larry and Sally hike a sunlit jungle trail in full safari kit and come back with a third guest for the cookout: a tiger. Beers in hand, sausage and peppers on the grill, and the biggest cat in the jungle leaning in for a sniff — this tailgate has a strict no-sudden-movements policy.
Quick answer
How do you make Italian sausage lower in sodium?
