A lot of people are saying that you need to add more chicken stock. I think this is because people are following the recipe instead of the video. The recipe only calls for 1 cup while in the video, it says to add 3 cups of chicken stock. So just make sure to follow the video instead of the written instructions! 👍🏼

WAY too spicy!! Tried making it a few different times and it never came out right. Never could taste anything but the spices.

1) Watch the bacon or it will burn 😅 2) Use 3 cups of Chicken Broth for best consistency 🐔 3) Consume with some nice fall weather 🍂
