Crock Pot Corn Chowder

I've made this recipe several times and it always hits the spot on a cold Fall or Winter evening. Being made in the crock pot makes it even better!!

Serves  4-6

INGREDIENTS:
6 slices bacon, fried until crisp OR you can use the Hormel brand bacon pieces
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cups potatoes, peeled and cubed
2 cups fresh or frozen corn
16 oz. cream corn
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon seasoned salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1 cup water, cream, broth, milk, or half and half (or any combination)
1 cup of cubed ham or chicken (optional)

DIRECTIONS:
1. Combine all ingredients in the crock pot except the cream.
2. Cook on high for 3-4 hours or on low 6-8 hours. I prefer the low setting because the flavors marry each other nicely.
4. Add in the cream (or liquid of choice) until heated through.
