LT.. this sounds wonderful, actually reminds me of a habanero corn chowder that I fix on occasoin!
 
Yeah, I'm a dinosaur too - but I did program computers for over forty years. Was in danger of becoming extinct a number of times, to where I had to reinvent myself with new technology each time. Retired now, only a consumer of computer stuff these days.

I use 2 15 oz. cans........... didn't notice that typo..........

Don't see why you can't add a quarter-pound of sliced bacon.........

Do it and let me know.........

I didn't know those jars with handles were canning safe.
The ones from Texas I get with jam in them I give to friends
with kids that like them for lemonade, etc.

The recipe looks good and will try to do it for NYE.

Never had a problem......... but there ARE jars that don't have the correct thread, and won't seal, period , like the jelly jars you mentioned.

They must be Mason, or Ball.

I got mine when "Po' Folk's local outlet closed, and they were selling everything.

The pics show a Double-Doubled recipe........

The recipe shown will yield about 8 servings.

I don't see why you can't add even more that a quarter pound bacon. Never too much. I start with a pound when I do my clam chowder! :chef:

The sausage is the Headliner in this soup, but feel free to adjust it to your specs.......... I might add that I try to follow the recipe on the first go-round, so I know what the author is gunning for.... then, I can adjust, or not !:chef:

I made this last night, and it's a keeper! I did sub more potatoes for the turnips. I will eat turnips raw, just not cooked. Thanks for the recipe, LT. I just got a new computer and will have to figure out the picture stuff but will hopefully have a pic soon.

........First time I made it, #2 Son quipped, "Some of your spuds ain't done cooking!"........ Of course, it was the turnips that were throwing him off.......

This will go on my list this winter.

I've never been a fan of potatoes in soup (other than Baked Potato Soup), so I'll probably use all rutabaga and omit the potatoes entirely.
