Notes

  • *This chowder is best made with fresh corn on the cob to flavor the stock, but if you can't find it, leave it out of the stock and substitute 2 cups of frozen corn kernels in the chowder. 
  • If you can crack and shell the lobster outside, I highly recommend doing so, as it gets pretty messy. 
  • If you don't want to shuck the lobsters yourself, your grocery store may steam and shuck fresh lobsters if you ask.
