Preparation
- In a 6-quart (5.7 liters) dutch oven, cook bacon over medium-high heat until fat is rendered out and the pieces begin to get crispy.
- Add onion, carrot, and celery, and cook until just tender, about 3 minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium and add flour, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes to avoid lumps.
- Add ham, potatoes, thyme, and black pepper. Stir to coat the meat and potatoes in the roux/vegetable mix.

- Cover and bring to a boil. Then reduce heat to medium-low and cook covered for 25-30 minutes.
- Remove bay leaves and stir in cream. Return to a simmer and serve.
