This really is a great recipe. I substitute Chicken Broth for the water and at the end I add some cream (Heavy, Light or Half & Half) just to add some creamy richness. Also for a special twist add some cooked baby shrimp (peeled & de-viened of course) 15-20 minutes before serving. And plenty of cracked Pepper and Soda Crackers :-) Enjoy.

This is great - I've made it twice now and I LOVE it. I basically double it and add 2 garlic cloves and a cup of half and half at the end. Because of what my grocery store has, I use 8 oz bacon, 32 oz bag of corn kernels, 1 and 1/2 cans cream-style corn, 4 large red potatoes, 1 medium sweet onion, and a 10 oz can of chicken broth (instead of water). Sometimes I cook it on high for 2 hours then low for 4 hours. I serve it with garlic bread and it's to die for! :-)

Why oh why haven t I rated this before? Been making my corn chowder this exact way for years now. Its absolutely the best corn chowder you will ever find! Few changes tough :) First of all skip the water and add 2 cups of good quality chicken stock. I make my own and freeze for later use. Secondly I add a 1/2 to a 1 cup of heavy cream few minutes before serving. This is a wonderful meal that everyone one in my house enjoys!

This soup is delicious when you add a large can of diced tomatoes with the chicken broth and skip the cream corn and milk or cream. My mother always made it for us for lunch when we walked home from school for lunch. Then we would walk back to school for the afternoon. The warmth, taste and aroma fortified us for the walk in the winter snows of Vermont.

This recipe turned out well and my family liked it. It made A LOT so we had leftovers for a couple days. It was not as flavorful as I had hoped, so I will use chicken stock instead of water the next time I make it. I also like the idea of adding some cream or milk at the end to make it a bit creamy.

this has become a staple in our household! it is so versatile and some of the recommendations here have been great. i typically use broth in place of water, add a clove or two of garlic & other veggies (carrots, zucchini, turnips, whatever is on hand). i omit the sugar and add a tsp+ of cumin, paprika and crushed red pepper. about half an hour before chow time, i stir in a 1/2 cup of half & half or whole milk and 1 cup of chopped spinach. yum!
