Step-by-Step Method
Prep the bacon
Chop the bacon into small pieces. If you like, warm it in a skillet for 2–3 minutes to start rendering, then transfer to the slow cooker.
Add the ingredients
Add the onion, diced potatoes, and frozen corn to the crock pot. Sprinkle in the sugar, Worcestershire sauce, seasoning salt, and black pepper.
Pour in water and cook
Add the water (1 1/4 cups total) and stir. Cover and cook on LOW for 7 hours.
Adjust the texture
When the potatoes are tender, stir well. For a thicker chowder, mash a ladleful and mix it back in; for a looser soup, add a splash of water.
Serve
Serve hot. Taste and tweak seasoning with a bit more salt/pepper if needed, and add a small handful of chopped herbs if you want.
