Preparation
Step 1
In a large dutch oven or soup pot, brown meat well (be sure to have some crispy brown bits- this adds beefy flavor). Drain meat and add onions. Continue to cook over medium heat just until onions begin to soften.
Add all other ingredients except potatoes. Bring to a simmer then cover and cook for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Add cubed potatoes and cook just until potatoes are tender. The soup is now ready to eat, and the leftovers will be extra delicious the next day. Enjoy!
