2 lb. Tilapia
1 lb. Catfish
2 lb. Bacon
4 Stalks Celery
2 Large Sweet Onions (like Vidalia)
5 Pounds Red Potatoes
¾ Cup Flour
1 Stick Butter
1 Gallon Whole Milk
3 Quarts Water
Sage
Marjoram
Thyme
Parsley
Salt
Dice the potatoes, onions, and celery. Boil in the 3 quarts of water.
Fry the bacon (not too crisp), remove from the pan and tear into bite-size pieces. Melt a stick of butter, brown it (until it has a nutty smell). Add the bacon drippings. Mix with the flour (should be equal parts) to form a roux.

Add the water and vegetables to the roux (gradually), stirring constantly. Cut the tilapia and catfish. Add the milk slowly to the chowder, along with the fish and bacon. Season with sage, marjoram, thyme, parsley, and salt to taste. Simmer the soup, stirring frequently to prevent burning on the bottom.
