It's a great cold weather dish. Haven't made it in awhile, but I think mine also had cognac, and salt pork in lieu of bacon. Either way, very tasty! Thanks for the reminder.
Practice safe lunch. Use a condiment.

I never thought of it years ago, but I think this would be a great dish to make in a crock pot (since I don't have a nice red dutch oven like some )!
