2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon salt
1/8 teaspoon black pepper, to taste

Prepare potatoes and onions. Set onion aside.

Place potatoes in a large soup pot or Dutch Oven. Cover with water. Add salt, pepper. Bring to a boil and cook about 20 minutes or until potatoes are fork tender, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile in a medium saucepan, render fat from salt pork or smoked bacon over medium heat. Crumble meat, reserving it. Leave drippings in pan. Add butter to same pan. Melt over medium-low heat. Add onion and saute until somewhat translucent. Do NOT brown. Add 1 crushed, peeled and minced clove of fresh garlic (optional). Stir in salmon, ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and half and half or milk. Drain cooking water from potatoes.

Combine salmon mixture, potatoes and crumbled salt pork or bacon. Add more half and half or milk if desired. Serve piping hot with saltine crackers. Offer hot sauce or Tabasco on the side for those who like it HOT.
