Thank you, linda! Much appreciated

[@mikemaccracken3112]

Thanks for the video Chris. I agree that some people use too much flour. I have had so many different clam chowders here in New England😂. Bacon makes everything better.

Godfather BBQ & Italian: Can you please suggest the best canned clams to make this soup?

[@godfatherbbqitalian]

Cento if you can

[@Faithful_Watchman]

@@godfatherbbqitalian: Okay, thank you. I can get Cento 6.5 oz. minced canned clams. Will that do? If so, how many cans should I get to equal the same amount of clams shown on the video?

[@godfatherbbqitalian]

@@Faithful_Watchman Oh good, I believe I used 12 ounces in the video but it’s a matter of personal preference. But that would be the least I would use, if you like more,16 ounces which is 2 cups. Thanks! again!

@@godfatherbbqitalian: Thank you!

[@godfatherbbqitalian]

@@Faithful_Watchman my pleasure !

[@onesixfive]

a lot of corny dudes from the eastern seaboard of italian extraction posting videos with more schtick than substance. phony garbage. i clicked this video (recommended on home screen) with hesitation thinking 'here is another one'. i was wrong. i appreciate going about this properly, your food IQ is high and your judgement calls make sense to me. keep up the good work, alot of bad work out there!

[@godfatherbbqitalian]

Thanks so much, I really appreciate your support and input!

[@steers182]

Any thoughts on freezing this soup?

[@godfatherbbqitalian]

Absolutely, just make sure it’s sealed well to prevent freezer burn
