Saute the Italian sausage and bacon in a Dutch oven set over medium heat. Once the sausage and bacon have cooked through, remove them from the pot with a slotted spoon and set aside for later use. Then, stir in the onions, garlic, and red pepper flakes. Cook until the onion is just tender, about 3 minutes. Drain away the excess drippings.

Pour in the chicken stock and bring the liquid to a boil. Once boiling, add the potatoes and cook until they are softened, about 15 minutes.
