Unsaved Homestyle Baked Potato Soup

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp All purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp Sherry vinegar
  • 2 cups Colby Jack Thick Cut Shreds, plus more as needed for garnishing
  • 1 cup Green onions, diced
  • 12 oz Pecan smoked uncured bacon, diced
  • 3 Large Russet potatoes, scrubbed and cleaned
  • 1/3 cup Sour cream, plus more as needed for garnish
  • 6 cups Whole milk
  • 1 tbsp Garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tsp Hot sauce, plus more as needed

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400ºF.
  2. Wrap potatoes in foil and bake 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until fork tender. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
  3. Set a large pot over medium heat then add bacon, green onions and garlic. Cook until bacon starts to crisp slightly, about 5 to 6 minutes.
  4. Add vinegar, Tabasco, and flour, and cook 3 to 5 more minutes, stirring constantly. Then stir in milk.
  5. Chop up cooked potatoes and add to pot, using a wire whisk to break up potatoes. Bring to a simmer and allow to thicken slightly.
  6. Reduce heat to low, add sour cream and cheese, and whisk to combine until smooth and thick. Season to taste as needed. Serve with more cheese on top if desired.
  7. Chef's Note: I add a 1/2 cup of chopped chives to stir in at the end for some bright flavor and color.
