Cheeseburger Chowder

Ingredients
- 1/2 lb ground beef
- small onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 5 Tbls flour
- 1 tsp Smoky Meat Rub
- .5 – 1 Tsp Wasabi Powder
- 1-2 tsp Bourbon Barrel Smoked Salt (adjust based on salt in your broth)
- Pepper to taste
- 1 dill pickle, finely diced (or 2-3 Tbls Dill Pickle White Balsamic)
- 2 Tbls Garlic Cilantro Dark Balsamic
- 1 Tbls ketchup
- 1 Tbls mustard
- 3-5 c beef broth
- 4 oz Velveeta or american cheese
- Shredded colby jack cheese
- French fried onions
- Cooked bacon, crumbled
Instructions
- Brown ground beef, onion, and garlic over medium heat.
- Add flour and cook just until starting to brown, then add spices
- Add dill pickle, ketchup, mustard, balsamic, and beef broth. Bring to a boil
- Add velveeta/american cheese and stir until melted.
- If soup is too thick, add more beef broth until desired consistency.
- Serve hot with shredded cheese, fried onions, and bacon.
Elz note – Personally, I’d add 1 or 2 potatoes, cooked and cubed – what’s a cheeseburger without fries?
