Serving

1 1/2 pints chicken broth, canned (or home-made)
1 large russet potato, peeled and chopped
1 large sweet potato, peeled and chopped
1 medium white onion, peeled and chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
3 slices smoked bacon, coarsely chopped
3 large garlic cloves, peeled and minced

1 lb extra large shrimp, peeled, deveined and coarsely chopped
