Southern roots mean these potatoes hit the table a lot. I’m telling ya, the craving never quits!
Oh, there’s nothing quite like the comforting embrace of a good ol’ dish of Southern Stewed Potatoes with Bacon.
This recipe holds a dear spot in my family cookbook, passed down through the generations.
Originally adapted during the Great Depression when economical cooking was essential, this dish has stood the test of time.
With hearty potatoes simmering to perfection in the rich, smoky flavors of bacon, every bite is like a step back to simpler times. It’s perfect for a soothing supper or a side dish at a family gathering where stories and food are shared alike.
These stewed potatoes are versatile and hearty, pairing wonderfully with almost any main dish.
Personally, I love serving them alongside a slice of buttermilk cornbread or a plateful of green beans cooked with a pinch of fatback for that extra flavor.
They also go beautifully with fried chicken or pork chops, soaking up the juices and providing a creamy contrast to the crispiness of the meat.
