  • 3 large Yukon Gold potato peeled and cut into 1 in cubes

  • ¾ cup sharp cheddar shredded
  • 4 slices bacon

  2. Add potatoes, onions, stock, garlic, seasoning, and BBQ sauce to slow cooker. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 8 hours.
  3. Move the setting to "keep warm" and carefully use an immersion blender to puree. Mix in heavy cream, sour cream, and 1/2 cup of cheddar cheese. (Optional: use the immersion blender to puree further if the dairy isn't mixing in.)
  4. To eat, top soup with bacon, green onions, chives, and additional cheese, as desired.

Notes

- We like Penzey’s Northwoods or Rocky Mountain seasoning salt in this dish.

- Make this soup lower in calories by substituting one head of cauliflower, chopped, for three of the potatoes.

- Plain yogurt works great in place of sour cream. If you already have that on hand, go for it!


Gluten-Free

- If gluten-free is important to you, please double check your chicken stock and barbecue sauce ingredient label.


Vegetarian

- Use veggie stock and skip the bacon if you need this dish to be truly vegetarian
