1 cup, diced Potato
¹⁄₁₆ tsp Cayenne pepper

Cook the bacon in a large soup pot until it reaches your desired level of crispiness. Remove bacon from the pot to drain on paper towels. Pour the bacon fat from the pot, reserving grease.

Add the reserved grease back into the pot on medium low heat. Add the chopped carrots, onion and celery and saute until the onions are soft but not browned, approximately 3 to 5 minutes.

Stir in the chopped potatoes and saute for about a minute before adding in the chicken stock and pepper. Bring everything to a boil, then cover, reduce the heat and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
