Bacon does not work well. It falls apart and makes the dish brown. You
need to dice up salt pork and render until crisp. Spoon off a few
tablespoons of the fat and use it to cook the vegetables and then finish the
soup. Stir half the "cracklings" into the final dish in the last 20
minutes or so and reserve some to top the soup with at the table.

And it is chowda! Not chowder ... CHOWDA!
