This is a slightly spicy, smoky, hearty corn chowder. The recipe was given to me by a dear friend many years ago and the original source is unknown. I have adapted it to suit my family's tastes. If you prefer a thicker chowder, you can stir in a can of creamed corn. Serve this with cornbread or a crusty French loaf for a lovely meal, enjoy!

Serve the chowder with a crusty bread or crackers: A crusty bread or crackers are the perfect accompaniment to andouille sausage and corn chowder. They will help to soak up the delicious broth and add a bit of texture to the meal.
