Beef Cabbage Soup (with Hamburger)
Description
This soup starts with browning ground beef into crumbles, which forms the flavorful base. Diced celery and cabbage are added and cooked until softened, providing a mild sweetness and body. The addition of diced tomatoes with their juices and kidney beans contribute texture and heartiness. Garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper season the broth, while a combination of beef stock and dark beer adds depth and richness to the liquid.
The soup simmers for about an hour to allow flavors to meld and the liquid to reduce and thicken slightly, coating the vegetables and meat. The slow cooker option allows extended cooking on low heat, further enhancing flavors.
Served hot, this soup is a robust, comforting dish that stores well and often tastes better the next day, making it practical for meal planning or batch cooking.
