Soups.........Clam Chowder (South Jersey stile)

Made a 5 gallon pot full. Gona freeze what we dont eat tonight. It's SURE GOOD. Even better comm'n in after trap'n all day.

Good as you had in NC? That was awesome Newt!!

Remember how fast Newt went outside when I told him it was almost gone...You are right about it being good stuff...I almost hurt myself eating it that day.

Yeah, he thought it was Gone!!!!

Ole Larry had 2 bowls at one time

lol....where's he at...

Probally eatin somewhere.
I know he has been doing some deer hunting. Bet he has the freezer full by now.

You gotta lotta nerve,Newt, posting this.....and not giving us the recipe !!

What makes it so special ??

First thing is no milk. Second thing is there is some sand in the bottom of the pot...that is how you know they were good clams....

Well Son
He and Louie did a great job in Carolina. Musta been skeered of that cane. I know I was at one time!

You can find "Big Daddy" over on Cottons board:

Louis was one of a kind. We still laugh at some of his antics here...."I throwed em in the ditch....."

Is Newt's as good as pizz clams and milk chowder?

milk is for babies and some coffee...not for clam chowder...
Newt's is much better....

That sure is some good stuff. We ate 3 or 4 gallon at Bland and then had to go to N.C. the next weekend and try it on again. Thanks Newt I really enjoyed it and No Bottomline both them bowls didnt have clam chowder in them. I cant speak about the next day though. take care all
