I "doctored" and "cheated" a bit as every cook does: used 3 cans diced potatoes, 2 cans sliced carrots, sauteed the chopped onions and celery with a heaping tablespoon minced garlic in the bacon fat, and used a combination of half and half and heavy cream. Didn't have any clam juice but used 4 cans chopped clams, juice and all. Added a good bit of black pepper to stand up to the cream base and a touch more garlic salt for proper seasoning. Threw it all in the crockpot 8 hours on low...PERFECT-O. Before serving, I dissolved about 5 tablespoons cornstarch in cold water and mixed in to thicken it up to an appropriate "chowder" consistency. So delicious!!! A winter-time favorite!

This was an easy recipe and the only changes I made were to add a bit more seasonings, clams, and potatoes to suit my taste. Very yummy!

Just about as perfect as it gets. Good sourdough bread and some citrus salad or Waldorf salad and you have a real Saturday night meal.

I added garlic, salt, and cracked pepper. I used 3 cans of chopped clams in place of what was called for in the recipe because I did not have access to shucked clams. My family loved this recipe. It was a little "ligher" than a traditional clam chowder and we liked that. We will make this again.

This recipe was good after I made some changes to suit my taste. I used a 28oz. can of whole baby clams, 4 potatoes, a 14 1/2 oz. can of evaporated milk, 1 cup of water, and I thickened it with a little flour. I used turkey bacon, but the bacon flavor was strong, so I will cut down on it and use just 9 slices instead of 12 next time. I felt the recipe could use more seasoning, so I added garlic, parsley, thyme, and chicken bouillon. I served it with hot dinner rolls and the family enjoyed it. Will make it again.

Good chowder but somewhat bland. I would probably add some additional seasonings next time - maybe thyme or rosemary. Mine turned out to be very hearty and I didn't think I had enough liquid, so you may want to add more clam juice or half and half. For a thicker chowder, you may want to thicken with flour.

Use Salt Pork - these days "Bacon" comes with flavors (maple!!) that don't blend well with clams. BUTTER (!), Thyme (CAREFUL! Go Slow. It can quickly overpower the chowder!) & White Pepper. Best made the "Day Before". Like many soups, stews and chowders . . . time adds to the fullness of the flavor.
