Okay I know this is a shitty picture but I have been drinking so fuck you. In a big ass pot combine 3tbl butter, 5 diced red potatoes (skin on), 4 diced stalks of celery, 1 large diced onion, salt and pepper, and some Old Bay. Saute this shit for a while and make sure your potatoes are getting into soft territory. If you need to cover it to cook up them taters, I give you permission. Add 5tbl flour and stir that bitch up for about two minutes. Add one bottle of clam juice (8oz) and 3c milk. If you are a total douche bag and you like your chowder on the runny side just add another 1/2-1c of milk. Let it come to a slow boil over medium heat (this will take a while). Add 2 cans of corn, not the creamed shit dumbass, and 3/4-1lb crab meat. Reduce the heat to about a 3 and let it cook though for another five minutes. Eat it.

Crab and Corn Chowder
I had some leftover crab so I decided to make a chowder after spending an afternoon at the local speakeasy. There is nothing better on a cold winter nice than a nice bowl of chowder. Well...except cold bourbon, hot sex, and an episode of COPS but we can't have everything we want in life right? This recipe, like all my other ones, is my own brainchild and I rocked the shit out of it as usual. It only took me ~40 minutes to make so this quick and easy meal is perfect for when you need whip up a crowd-pleaser in a jiffy. Too bad you will once again resort to buying pre-made shit from your bullshit ghetto supermarket that tastes like a monkey's butthole. Let's begin:

I have made a similar recipe and used shrimp when crab is not available. It was pretty good, FYI. It didn't use clam juice though--I will have to add that next time.
canned corn, dude? can you use frozen, or does that fuck up the taste?
It is all about the clam juice!
you can use frozen or fresh ~3c
For clarification, are you talking about "Clamato" Willis? Or do you have another brand preference?
Clamato has tomato juice and is some sick ass shit. Clam juice is a broth (like chicken or beef) and looks like this

That is actually the brand I use too.
Thanks for the clarification--I would have seriously fucked that up.
BTW, I use frozen corn, but roasting it (frozen or fresh) a little before added to the soup makes it a little more special.
Fantastic idea bunny!
Take note everyone!
Thanks! I should have said "frozen, fresh or canned"--I just use a little EVOO (and if you're using frozen, you can throw in the pan frozen and it defrosts at the same time!)
Mmmm...fantastic idea! Now I know what we're having for dinner tomorrow night, though, I don't have any crab, and there's some homemade chicken stock left over, so maybe some chicken and corn chowder.
=^..^=
That would definitely work...you can even sub chicken/vegetable broth for the clam juice.
If you want to go all in, substitute a cup of that milk with a cup of half-and-half. Add a little cooked, chopped bacon on top for garnish and you can just call 9-1-1 after your done for a jump start.
I TOTALLY would have added bacon but my lady is a "pescatarian"
