  3. Use a clean paper towel to absorb some of the bacon grease, reserving about 1 tablespoon in the pot. Add butter and melt over medium heat

  4. Add diced onions and cook for about 5 minutes, until soft and translucent. Add garlic and flour and cook for about 1 minute, stirring often

  5. While whisking, pour in vegetable broth and increase heat to medium. Add in corn, potatoes, thyme, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir and bring to a low boil, then reduce heat and simmer.

  6. Continue to simmer, stirring often, for 15-20 minutes, until potatoes are fork tender

  7. Use an immersion blender or food processor to combine half of the soup until smooth

  8. Stir the blended soup back into the pot
