We had this for ZWT 5 and it is fantastic. Very flavorful and easy to put together. It went very nicely with "Recipe #141969".

I really liked this chowder but unfortunately DH didn't care for it as much. I prepared the recipe as written and added hot pepper sauce to my portion. It's very quick and easy to prepare
