Instructions

1. First dice the bacon and onions and cut the garlic into small pieces. Leave the bacon in a saucepan with a little fat, remove it, pour off the excess fat and let the bacon drain on a paper towel.
2. Put some fat back into the saucepan and sweat the onions until translucent, then add the garlic towards the end. Put the bacon back in the saucepan and stir in the tomato paste. Now deglaze the whole thing with bourbon. Let it boil down a little and add the espresso.
3. Pour the whole thing with water or meat stock and the tomato strains and bring to the boil. Then add the bouillon cubes (if you are not using a home-cooked meat bouillon) and the spices. Let everything boil for a good hour, until some of the water has evaporated and the ingredients are all nice and soft.
4. After this time, dice the potatoes and let simmer for about 15-20 minutes. At the end, drain the beans and add them. Season the soup with salt, sugar, chilli and bourbon and bring to the boil again.
5. Tip: If the tomatoes don`t have enough acidity, you can add a little red balsamic vinegar. This also brings a very fine barbecue aroma into play. Liquid smoke supports the bourbon aroma, but is very careful to dose. This goes well with corn flatbread, salted tortilla chips or just plain white bread.
