Directions:

In large pot use 1 T butter and saute salt pork for five minutes
Add onion, celery w/leaves and garlic until translucent and celery is soft.
In a separate pan, boil clams in salted water for ten minutes. Do not overcook, as they will become chewy.

Parboil the potatoes in the broth (add water iff necessary) Cook al dente
When done, add potatoes to the pot and cook for another minute or two with the other vegatables.
Add remaining butter and cook all until its melted and then add the flour to make a roux.
Once the flour has mixed and been cooked with the butter add the cream and all dry ingredients.
Add 1/3 cup clam broth (from boiled clams)...add more or less depending on how thick you like your chowder
Add clams to the chowder and cook on low for fifteen more minutes.
Add pepper to taste, and/or a dash of tabasco sauce
