4 large potatoes, peeled and cubed

8 oz bacon, bite-sized pieces

4 Tbsp unsalted butter

½ med onion, finely chopped

2 garlic cloves, minced

¼ cup all-purpose flour

2 1/2 cups whole milk

2 1/2 cups chicken broth

1 cup mild or sharp cheddar cheese, shredded

1 tsp salt, or to taste

Place sliced potatoes into a stockpot and completely cover with 1" of water. Season with ½ tsp salt and cook 8-10 minutes or until potatoes pierce easily with a knife then drain.

Meanwhile, saute bacon in a dutch oven until crispy then transfer to a plate, reserving 1 Tbsp bacon grease in the pot.

Add 4 Tbsp butter and chopped onions then sautee until tender. Add garlic and cook another minute until fragrant.

Quickly whisk in the flour. Slowly add 2 1/2 cups milk and 2 1/2 cups broth, whisking constantly then bring to a soft boil.

Add drained potatoes and season soup with 1 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper or season to taste.

Stir in 3/4 cup sour cream, 1 cup shredded cheddar, and half half of your cooked bacon (reserving the rest for serving). Bring to a boil then remove from heat and serve with your favorite toppings.
