Peel & dice baked potatoes, side aside. In a kettle cook bacon over medium hear until crisp. Using slotted spoon remove to paper towels. Drain, reserving 1 1/2 tsp drippings. Add soups, milk, garlic powder, Worcestershire. sauce, onion powder, pepper, liquid smoke & potatoes to drippings. Cook 10 minutes or until heated through, stirring occasionally. Stir in sour cream, cook 1-2 minutes longer or until heated through. Do not boil. Garnish with cheddar cheese and bacon.
