Fantastic Soup! The only changes I made were to use 1 can of corn and I only had russet potatoes on hand, but this chowder is so satisfying on a cold day! It is sweet and smoky and great with rustic bread and butter. I used 2 whole chipotle chiles (about 2 Tbsp), since we normally love spicy food, but it was almost too much, so I will probably back off next time.

Wow! The smokey flavor from the bacon and chipotle is so tasty and there is the little kick from the chipotles too. I used one whole chipotles pepper with about 1 tsp extra of adobo sauce. I used 1 1/2 cups of light cream in place of the heavy cream and used one can of corn instead of frozen. I also had to sub vermouth for the sherry as I was out. It worked well but I really think sherry would be the better choice. Thanks MamaJ for a wonderful chowder!

Very tasty, but a bit too spicy for us--next time I will only use 1 tbs. of chipotle. I also added about 2 tsp. of salt and it really gave the flavor a boost. We're looking forward to having it again this winter.

Wow, from one WV girl to another! (born and raised in Charleston) We LOVED your chowder recipe. I had some really nice jumbo shrimp that I cut into thirds to put in the soup. The smoky, spicy blend was just right for our palates. I'm going to follow your lead next time and triple this. BTW, no changes were made to your recipe, it was followed to a T. Thanks so very much!
