Some of you know that I make clam chowder.  Been competing for 10 years or so and actually won the Santa Cruz Clam chowder festival people's choice award 5 years in a row from 2013-2017.  Won the blind judges 1st place award in 2016 and have gotten most tasted many times. Flew to Orange Beach Alabama in 2017 and competed in the world food championships against every cook and chef you have ever seen on T.V. Got our asses handed to us that weekend but what an eye opener it was and a total blast.

So fast forward to today.  I retired last year and moved up to Angles Camp. Love it. Been making small batches for people starting to get the name out up here. Well I met up with Jan and Patty from the Spice tin in Murphy's. After they sampled my chowder the asked if we would do a chowder day at there cool little spice shop.

So tomorrow's the day.  1:00-4:00 we will be there giving away free samples and selling a little to make up cost.  This might be the start of going global.  lol  We are actually going to start selling it online soon so look for 4 Men and  calm and if you happen to be near Murphy's tomorrow stop on in and a say hello.

Congrats on retirement Jerry. Enjoy the Motherlode area. With melones right down the way, fishing will be close to you.

Thanks FM 1.  Always a good time at the SC chowder fest.  We would make 60 gallons and serve 1600 peeps in2 hours . Making 6 gallons for tomorrow sure is easier than 60.

Success!!!!  Made 6 gallons gave away 2 for free tastings and sold the other 4.  Made a lot of connections and have some future pop ups planned for the future. 

We need a little more time and it will be available on line.

Also would love to make some and feed the NCKA crew at one of the events.  Maybe the Monterey get together ?

And away we go!!!!
