HEARTY BEER CHEESE SOUP



Hearty Beer Cheese Soup image

I'm famous for this soup. I've been making it since I was 15 years old... It's really versatile, You can change it however you want (I tend to use more beer) and it always tastes great! Great to dip with buttered bread. I got the original recipe from a 1990 Herberger's cookbook.

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 tablespoons (1 stick) salted butter
1 to 1 1/2 large carrots, diced (about 3/4 cup)
3/4 cup small-diced piquillo peppers, or 1/2 large red bell pepper, diced
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken stock, low-sodium store-bought or homemade
One 12-ounce bottle beer, preferably a mild-flavored blond or pale ale

DENNY'S BEER CHEESE SOUP



Denny's Beer Cheese Soup image

A rather strong and cheesy soup, with no "chewy" bits to get in the way! Use more cheese to make the soup thicker and add more cheesy flavor. The beef bullion cube makes the soup taste richer, and a little saltier. Add a bit of your favorite hot sauce (Tabasco with Garlic, mmmm!) to give it a little extra kick. This is good stuff when served with toasted bread (especially Pumpernickel) like Welsh rarebit. Also makes a good side dish or appetizer. If you want something more filling, throw in some chopped, pre-cooked veggies, pre-cooked meat (beef sausage or kielbasa is quite good!), or other filler before you boil the soup. Just don't add any raw meat or uncooked foods, as the short cooking time will not be enough to cook the meat.

Time 25m

Yield 2-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (12 ounce) bottle beer
1 (10 3/4 ounce) can campbell's condensed cheddar cheese soup
4 -8 ounces sharp cheddar cheese, cubed or shredded
Worcestershire sauce
garlic powder
basil
chives
hot sauce (optional)
1 beef bouillon cube (3.7g or so) (optional)

Steps:

  • In a fair-size pot, combine the beer and the can of soup.
  • Add the cubed or shredded cheese to the beer/soup mixture.
  • Add all of the other ingredients to taste.
  • Bring the entire mixture to a boil, stirring very frequently.
  • By the time it boils, your cheese should be almost completely melted and mixed in with the soup.
  • (Note: if you use a smaller pot, the carbonated beer may boil over quickly, so be careful.) Once the cheese is completely melted, reduce the heat.
  • Simmer for at least 5-10 minutes, longer if you prefer thicker soup.
  • Stir occasionally.
