History
The cultivation of chili peppers in New Mexico started a generation before the pilgrims landed at Plymouth Rock. So, while chowder was most likely brought to America from England and France a few centuries ago, the signature flavor of this southwest favorite pre-dates any grid-iron battle. This is a chowder that’s truly worthy of a GameDay tradition.
