Ingredients
2 lbs potatoes, peeled and diced
6 cans clams
Bacon (about 8 slices at least)
2 small onions, chopped
1 cup butter
1 cup flour
5 cups clam juice (I just usually add more chicken broth)
5 cups chicken broth
2 pints ½ and ½
Salt and pepper
Dash Tabasco
Dash Worcestershire
Preparation
Cook potatoes in clam juice and chicken broth until tender. Add clams and their liquid. Cook about 5 minutes. Set aside. Cook bacon, drain some grease. Add onions and sauté. Add butter. When melted, add flour and cook until slightly colored. Bring potato mixture back to a boil, and gradually add the cooked roux. (I use a wisk to get rid of any lumps) Bring to a boil to thicken, stirring continually. Add the ½ and ½. Add seasonings
