Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground chuck
- 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 stalks celery, diced
- 3 medium carrots, diced
- 2 cups frozen mixed vegetables
- 2 medium russet potatoes, peeled and diced
- 6 cups beef broth
- 14.5 ounces canned diced tomatoes, with juices
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown the ground chuck over medium-high heat, breaking it apart into crumbles as it cooks. Once fully cooked, remove the meat with a slotted spoon and set it aside, leaving the drippings in the pot.
Lower the heat to medium and add the butter. Once melted, sprinkle in the flour, whisking constantly to form a roux. Cook for 2-3 minutes, until the roux turns a light golden color.
Stir in the diced onion, celery, and carrots. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 minutes, until tender and slightly caramelized.
Add the beef broth, diced tomatoes (with juices), tomato paste, and Worcestershire sauce to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Return the cooked ground chuck to the pot, then add the diced potatoes, frozen mixed vegetables, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together.
Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot. Simmer for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender and the flavors are well developed.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. Serve hot with crusty bread or crackers on the side. Enjoy!
