Made this recipe as is for 2 years now, I live in Oregon and we love our clam chowder. This is THE BOMB. I get so many comments every time I make it. I will never try another recipe. This is it for me. So basic but right on. Skip the celery everyone wants to put in this. It does not belong. This is a fisherman’s dish to the T. Potatoes, clams, onions, bacon and cream. Sometimes we add shrimp on the top and some good garlic French bread on the side with crackers.

I made a few changes, used 5 lbs of red potatoes, added 3 stalks of celery with onion, shredded 1 carrot to the potatoes right before taking off the burner, used a restaurant sized can of chopped clams with broth and some Molly’s clam base . This was a very good recipe and will make again.

In reply to Cathy. Yes, canned would work just fine!

Have a hard time getting frozen or fresh clams. Can you use can clams?

In reply to Frankie. No, do not omit the flour! You need to to make the base of the roux. Hope you enjoy.

In reply to Donna. Yes, I love lots of clams too! Can't go wrong with a bread bowl though!

Glad to see 2:1 clams to potatoes. Too many recipes call for double potatoes to clams = potato soup with clams. Ugh. Here in New England, clam chowder is never served in bread bowls–too wasteful for our thrifty natures. I believe that’s a west coast thing. Just some oyster crackers. And mostly tourists like the thick clam chowder–don’t know why.

Clam chowder is my favorite. This seems easy enough. I LOVE Guy Fieri and to think I’ve got HIS recipe!!!! I’ll be making this soup really soon along with some homemade bread bowls, which I have NEVER made…..so this whole experience is going to be VERY interesting. Thank you so much!!!
