"A delightful New England style clam chowder full of all the things you love. The cooking times are synchronized to some classic Brittish Rock so you can enjoy your favorite tunes while making your favorite Chowder! The cooking times don't have to line up with the songs but it does make it fun. Make sure to keep enough hot coals to cook it, continue to light more through the process so you don't run out of heat!
