Heat the butter in a large soup pot over medium-high heat. Add the bacon and cook, stirring, until browned and all the fat is released (about 1 minute). Use a spoon to remove the bacon and set aside on another plate. Reduce the heat to medium, and add the onion, carrot, celery, and chopped garlic. Cook covered, stirring occasionally for about 8 minutes.
