This soup is delicious! I added a couple cups of cooked elbow macaroni and it was great! This was the entree for a birthday dinner and everyone raved about it. VERY good and very impressive!

I've been making a version of this same steak soup for years and I'd like to add a few things to turn it from just okay, into marvelous. Instead of using water, replace it with 4 (10 oz) cans of beef consomme. Use at least 1/2 cup of chopped carrots, onions and celery. Add 2 tsp of Kitchen Bouquet. Add 1 tsp of flavor enhancer. And use at least 2 lbs of good quality minced beef (not ground). Try is with these additions and you'll love it. I make the roux in a saucepan, add the consomme, then put the rest of the ingredients in a slow cooker. Let it cook all day on low and you'll come home to a marvelous meal.

This recipe was between fair and good. I did add potatoes and corn and peas, instead of mixed veggies. Felt this was nothing special though.

This was well received. Easy to make and filling, my family liked this. I cubed some potatoes and added them. I didn't have enough beef bouillion but it was fine, I probably used half the recommended amount.

I made this soup with some leftover prime rib and simmered it with some red wine. That soup was nearly gone before I got any! My picky eaters wouldn't go for the mixed veggies, but they loved this with potatoes, carrots, celery, and onions. So, we adjusted the recipe to our own tastes, and it came out FABULOUS!

This is a great soup recipe. We've had in Kansas City restaurants, and liked it then. We substituted leftover Christmas brisket (ground up) for the round steak, which worked out well.
