Steps:
- Pick through the beans, then rinse and drain them. Put them in a large pot and cover with water by 2 inches. Let soak overnight.
- Drain the beans and return them to the pot. Add the chicken stock and 4 cups of water. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer.
- While the beans are simmering, cook the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain. Add half the bacon to the beans, reserving the rest for garnish.
- Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon grease from the skillet and add the carrots, celery and onions. Season with some salt and pepper and cook until the vegetables are just beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the tomato paste and garlic and cook for another minute, stirring to combine.
- Using a slotted spoon, add the vegetables to the beans. Add the bay leaves and give it a good stir. Taste to check if it needs any additional seasoning. Simmer until the beans are tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours.
- When ready to serve, stir in the tomatoes. Serve with the reserved bacon and chopped parsley.

Steps:
- Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Once heated, add the onions, celery, and carrots and saute, stirring occasionally, until softened. Add the garlic, paprika, rosemary, salt, and pepper, and cook for another minute while stirring. Add the broth, liquid smoke, and 2 of the cans of beans. Increase heat and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until the veggies are tender. 15-20 minutes.
- Remove from heat.. Using an immersion blender or working in batches with a blender, puree the soup. I like to leave the soup slightly chunky, so I don't blend or puree completely. Just enough to get the ingredients mixed together, like a thick sauce. Return to the mixture to the pot and return to medium-low heat.
- Add the remaining can of beans. Stir to combine. Return to a simmer until the beans are heated through.
- Taste and add additional salt and pepper if desired.

BEAN AND BACON SOUP
This bean and bacon soup has been on our menu for about 25 years. Customers tell us they love its flavor. A clear chicken broth makes it different from other bean soups. -Robert Doumas, Gaylord, Michigan
