Step 1

Preheat the oven to 400°F. Lightly butter an 11-x-13- inch casserole dish or a 12-inch Dutch oven.

Step 2

Place the potatoes in cold water and set aside.

Step 3

Place the bacon in a large cast iron skillet and cook over medium heat for about 4 minutes, or until it begins to brown. Add the jalapeños, onion, and garlic. Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue cooking, stirring, until the bacon is three-quarters done (not crisp) and the vegetables soften, about 8 minutes. Remove from the heat.

Step 4

Drain the potatoes. Place a layer of potatoes in the casserole dish. Cover with half of the bacon mixture and sprinkle with the seasoned salt and pepper to taste. Repeat with the remaining ingredients. Pour the soda over the entire dish until about half full.

Step 5

Cover the dish with tin foil and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and stir. Replace the foil and continue baking for about 20 more minutes, or until the potatoes are ten- der. Re-season with salt and pepper, if desired. Serve hot.
