Recipe Description
Some say chowder is a winter meal because it’s a hot soup. I say to heck with that theory. Corn chowder is best in the summer when the corn is super fresh and sweet!
No matter what your thoughts are on the matter, one thing is for sure, this chowder makes a fabulous meal any time of year. The salty bacon paired with the sweet corn is a match made in heaven!
