- In a large skillet, fry the bacon and the sausage until the bacon is browned.
- Add the bacon/sausage mixture to the soup and cook until the soup boils again.

Steps:
- Heat a deep soup pot set over medium heat. Add the schmaltz to render, then add the onions and cover to sweat until soft, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic, then cover and sweat, without browning, until soft, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the sausage and sweat, covered, until the mixture turns amber in color, 4 to 5 minutes. Add the kale, pushing it down to get it all in the pot. Season with salt and pepper. Cook uncovered, stirring occasionally until the kale cooks down by half, is incorporated into the onion-sausage mix and is covered with schmaltz, about 30 minutes.
- Add the Rich Chicken Broth, stir well, then cover the pot and simmer for 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, cook the beans. Drain the beans and place in a medium pot. Cover with fresh cold water, then cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.
- Drain and add the beans to the soup. Add the potatoes to a medium pot set over medium-high heat and cover with cold water. Cook until almost cooked through (the potatoes will continue to cook after they're drained). Drain the potatoes then lay them out in single layer on a sheet tray and refrigerate to stop the cooking process.
- When cool add the potatoes to the soup, bring back to a simmer and add the hot sauce. Serve hot.
- Place the chickens in a large stockpot and add enough water to cover, about 2 gallons. Bring to a boil, skimming the scum as it surfaces.
- When all the scum is removed and the stock is boiling add the onions, celery, thyme, bay leaves, carrots, garlic, parsley and peppercorns. Bring back to a boil, lower the heat to a slow boil, then cover and simmer until the flavor develops, 4 to 6 hours.
- Cool the stock and refrigerate overnight allowing the flavors to marry.
- Remove the fat (schmaltz) from the top of the broth to use in the kale soup. Strain the broth and use as you please! Yield: 1 1/2 gallons

PORTUGUESE KALE SOUP (WITH VEGGIE VERSION)
My grandmother (from Fall River Massachusettes) taught me to make this soup just before I went to college. I tweaked it a little, but not much. This is portuguese soul food. It cures all ills, especially the rainy cabin fever I get here in Seattle each winter. Note: 12.02.07 I stopped eating meat, but still love to make this soup. Vegetarians... use "Soyrizo" instead of Chourice.

Steps:
- Dump the potatoes in a big old stock pot with the garlic, the wine and about a gallon of water or stock, about a tbs of salt, a few dashes of hot sauce, the two apple halves and the bay leaves.
- Heat on medium with a lid.
- While the potatoes soften, simmer the chourico in a smallish sauce pan.
- Add a little olive oil if it's really lean sausage.
- Cover it and simmer on low (you want to save all the savory, spicey yumminess to stay right there in the pan!) When the potatoes are good and soft, mash them.
- (I take the apples out-- they should be floating -- for a sweeter soup, leave them in, but take the peels off.) I mash them right there in the stock pot, but some people like to strain them out, smash'em and then put them back inches.
- Whatever you do,*don't* dump out all of the wonderful broth the potatoes have created for you.
- Don't smash them entirely if you like a nice chunky soup.
- When the chourico is all cooked (I tell by the consistency.) put the onions in the pan and put the lid back on.
- Turn off the heat, and let the onions start to wilt in the pan.
- Let the potato broth simmer without a lid for about 1/2 hour.
- Taste it.
- Adjust salt/pepper.
- Take out the Bay Leaves Add the Kale, the Chourico/Onion mixture, the thyme, turmeric (about 1 tsp each), the tomatoes and the beans.
- Let it simmer with the lid off for about 1/2 hour.
- Taste it, adjust it.
- Add the juice of about the 1/4 of the lemon.
- Continue to simmer and taste for about 1 hour or so adjusting lemon, spices, salt, and hot sauce.
- Serve with some crusty bread, and parmesean cheese to put on top.
