Step-By-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare all ingredients: slice sausages and bacon, dice onions, and cube potatoes. If using, slice the carrots.
  2. In a large pot, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy (about 5-7 mins). Remove bacon and reserve fat.
  3. In the same pot, cook sliced sausages over medium-high heat until browned (5-6 mins). Remove and set aside.
  4. Lower heat to medium, add onions to the pot, and sauté for about 4-5 mins until translucent.
  5. Return bacon and sausages to the pot. Add cubed potatoes and sliced carrots (if using). Sprinkle with thyme and parsley.
  6. Pour in enough broth to submerge ingredients (4-5 cups). Bring to boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 1 hour.
  7. Check tenderness of potatoes and sausages. Simmer longer if needed.
  8. Ladle into warm bowls and serve hot, with bread on the side.
