Both ways sound great! Fortunately, I only need to present 1-2 cups for the chef and his taste-testing crew will sample each entry and determine the top three recipes. The chef will then prepare those recipes as PART of our dinner for the Couples' Golf dinner. After we finish golf, each player and all guests will sample the three chowders and vote for first, second, and third places. Sounds like fun, huh??? Thank you both for your recipes. I'm sure one of them will come home a winner!!! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" />
