This was excellent. I used more bacon then called for and a greater ratio of stock to half and half. Delicious!

Amazing dinner. The whole house loved it. I would have to say a couple tweaks to the recipe is needed. I find that it needs a little thickening (a little bit of cornstarch) and also I would put the chicken in about 7-10 into the cooking process of the potatoes and onions. Even with the fairly large cubes of chicken I was using, it was a little over done by the time everything else was done.

Would do this again in a heartbeat! I used rotisserie chicken, which usually adds that extra something special to soup, but this time I don't think I needed chicken at all. I also beefed up the veggies with some mushrooms and zucchini. Big hit!

It was good but makes a lot. I think it will serve more than 8 people. I used six slices of bacon as the three it called for did not render enough fat to cook in. Also had to change to a dutch oven as my pan was not large enough to hold the amount of ingredients. I used hominy instead of corn. It was good.

This was pretty good but I need to clarfy some stuff. Listen to the bisquik box, not the recipe here!! 1 cup of milk to 1.5 cups baking mix will give you soup. 3 slices of bacon is a little chinzy, we used 6 and could probably have used more. We didn't add the crumbled bacon until our own bowlfuls because we didn't want it soggy. The crunchy bacon on top is much better I think 2 C of the half and half would have sufficed, as 3 just seems like a little too much broth. This can be helpful, however, if your making more dumplings!! The rest of it we followed exactly and it turned out quite nice. Filling and comforting. Thanks for the great base recipe!

Really don't understand the great reviews on this one! I made it exactly as the recipe calls and it was just plain boring. This recipe makes a huge pot of soup/stew and 3 strips of bacon and a tsp of seasoning is not enough flavoring to put a dent in this volume of stuff. Without some sort of thickening agent, it will look like biscuits floating in milk. Everyone at my house tried it and then passed on it. And if you don't eat it right away, the biscuits swell and get really mushy. It was a mess after just a couple of hours. I threw this one out.
