Chop the bacon and cook it in a large pot over medium heat until crisp, about 8 minutes. Remove to a paper towel, leaving 1 tbsp fat in the pot.

Dice the onion and cook it in the bacon fat with the butter until soft, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and cook 1 minute.
- 3
Sprinkle in the flour and stir constantly for 1 minute to cook out the raw taste.

Slowly whisk in the chicken stock. Add the potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes. Simmer until fork tender, 15 to 18 minutes.

Mash about half the potatoes right in the pot for a thick, chunky texture. Stir in the milk and warm through.

Off the heat, stir in the cheddar and sour cream until melted. Season with salt and pepper.
