Chowdah!
Here's a recipe for chowder that I've been messing around with. I've made it twice, once with wsb, once with halibut, and they were both delicious. My wife isn't really a big fish eater, and she loves it. You can probably tweak it to throw some other goodies in it, but just like it is pretty damn tasty. I actually think it tastes better the next day, when we reheat it for leftovers- I think it gives the flavors more time to blend. It makes a good amount- but I don't think you should have a problem getting rid of it.
Figured since the weather is going to be a little snotty for a few days, and there are plenty of guys with some frozen packs of wsb in their freezer after this epic inshore season. Enjoy :cheers1:
