Cook the Italian frankfurter and red pepper chips in a Dutch stove over medium-high warmth until brittle, caramelized, and no longer pink, 10 to 15 minutes. Deplete and put aside.

Cook the bacon in the same Dutch broiler over medium warmth until fresh, around 10 minutes. Deplete, leaving a couple of tablespoons of drippings with the bacon in the base of the Dutch broiler.

Blend in the onions and garlic; cook until the onions are delicate and translucent, around 5 minutes.

Empty the chicken stock into the Dutch stove with the bacon and onion blend; heat to the point of boiling over high warmth.

Include the potatoes, and bubble until fork tender, around 20 minutes.

Diminish the warmth to medium and blend in the heavy cream and the cooked wiener; warm through.

Blend the spinach into the soup just before serving.
