Crumble and set aside. Add onions, pepper, and celery salt to the bacon grease and sauté until tender. Stir in the reserved clam juice and potatoes. Bring to a boil and reduce heat. Simmer covered for about 15 minutes or until potatoes are tender. With the back of a fork, slightly mash the potatoes. Stir milk, (reserving 1 cup), half and half, and clams; bring to a boil.
