I'm allergic to clams, so I used imitation clam meat. It worked really well and I couldn't tell the difference.

I made this chowder in a slow cooker and it turned out amazing. I let it cook on low for 8 hours and it was perfect.

I didn't have any clams on hand, so I used shrimp instead. It turned out great!

The chowder was a little too thick for my taste. I would recommend adding more milk or broth.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out too salty. I would recommend using less salt.

I love the addition of the clams and the bacon. It gives the chowder a really rich and savory flavor.
