Steps:
- Place the bacon in a large pot and cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until crisped and browned, about 10 minutes. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon, leaving the drippings in the pot. Set the bacon aside. Stir the potatoes and carrots into the bacon fat. Season with salt and pepper, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
- Pour the juice from the clams into the pot, and add enough water to just cover the potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are just tender, 10 to 15 minutes.
- Gently stir the leek soup mix into the potatoes until no lumps of soup remain. Stir in the clams, reserved bacon, and half-and-half cream. Cook and stir until the chowder returns to a simmer and thickens, about 10 minutes more.

AWESOME CLAM CHOWDER
This came about after a long search through many recipes. Is good eating the first day, but refrigerating overnight is what makes it awesome. When I served to for the group at my son's work, they ate it up. A couple of the guys said they didn't like clam chowder, but this was good.

Steps:
- Sauté celery, onions, and carrots (if using fresh corn add it now) and in oil in a large skillet until softened.
- Add potatoes, frozen corn, bottles of clam juice, plus enough drained liquid from canned clams to cover vegetables*, and cook over medium heat until tender. *If not enough liquid add only enough water until vegetables are covered.
- After about 10 - 15 minutes, when vegetables are almost tender, melt the butter in a large heavy soup pot over medium heat.
- Whisk flour into melted butter until smooth and fully cooked.
- Whisk in half & half and chicken stock, stir constantly until thick and smooth.
- Stir in vegetables, cooking liquid, and season with salt and pepper. Heat through, but do not boil.
- Stir in clams and shrimp - If they cook too much they get tough - do not allow it to boil. When clams are heated through, stir in vinegar.
- At this point I took it off the heat and let it cool down enough to put into the fridge covered as I was serving it the next day.
- A couple of hours before serving I just put it into the crock from one of my slow cookers, put the lid on, then put it into the microwave at 10 minutes at 50% power to get it started and then into the slow cooker on slow.
