CHEESEBURGER SOUP



Cheeseburger Soup image

A local restaurant serves a similar cheeseburger soup but wouldn't share its recipe with me. So I developed my own, modifying a recipe for potato soup. I was really pleased with the way this all-American treat turned out. -Joanie Shawhan, Madison, Wisconsin

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 6 to 8 people

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 sesame seed burger buns, cut into 3/4-inch pieces
1 tablespoon flavorless oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 slices bacon
1 pound ground beef (93 percent lean)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 large carrots, finely chopped
2 stalks celery, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 teaspoons mustard powder
2 pounds russet potatoes, diced
6 cups low-sodium chicken stock
1/3 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup heavy cream
10 ounces shredded Swiss cheese
2 tablespoons pickle brine plus 1/2 cup chopped pickles
Ketchup, for garnish
Mayonnaise, for garnish

Steps:

  • For the toasted sesame buns: Set the oven to broil. Toss the sesame bun chunks on a sheet pan with the oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Broil until golden brown, about 5 minutes.
  • For the cheeseburger potato soup: In a large Dutch oven, cook the bacon over medium heat until crispy, about 7 minutes. Remove to a paper towel lined plate to cool, then roughly chop. Set aside.
  • Add the beef and a pinch of salt to the Dutch oven and cook, breaking up with a spoon, until browned, 4 to 5 minutes (it will continue to cook through). Add the onion, carrot, celery and a good pinch of salt and pepper and cook until translucent, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and mustard powder and cook for another minute. Add the potatoes, stock, parsley, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and a bunch of turns of pepper and bring to a boil, then simmer until the potatoes are tender (pierce with a fork to check), 30 to 40 minutes.
  • Add the heavy cream and 8 ounces cheese and stir until the cheese is melted.
  • Finish the soup with the pickle brine. Taste and adjust for seasoning as desired. Ladle the soup into bowls, then top with some of the remaining shredded cheese, pickles, bacon, a drizzle of ketchup, mayo if you're freaky, and toasted sesame buns.
