"Souper" Burger Soup

We've all had barbecue parties where we made too many burgers and a bunch ended up sitting in the fridge for days before being thrown out. That won't happen now 'cause Souper Burger Soup is a great way to enjoy leftover hamburgers...and buns, too!
What You'll Need
- 4 (1/4 pound) cold cooked hamburgers, broken into large chunks (see Note)
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 1/2 cups beef broth
- 1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes
- 1 medium-sized onion, chopped
- 1/4 cup sweet relish
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon prepared yellow mustard
- 2 hamburger buns, torn or cut into 2-inch pieces
- 1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese, divided
What to Do
-
In a soup pot, combine all ingredients except buns and cheese. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer 20 to 25 minutes, or until onions are tender.
-
Add buns and 3/4 cup cheese and cook 8 to 10 more minutes, stirring frequently, or until buns dissolve and soup thickens.
-
Spoon into bowls and sprinkle with remaining cheese.
Note
If you don't have leftover cooked hamburgers, you can saute 1 pound ground beef until no pink remains, drain it, and add it in place of the cooked hamburgers.

This would be a great recipe to have around after the Fourth of July with all of those extra burgers!

I made this recipe, but instead of leftover hamburgers I made meatballs and left the buns out. It was served OVER the buns (kind of a 'sloppy joe' style). My family loved it!

I agree. I wouldn't put in the buns, but I don't think it is a bad idea for using leftovers. I like the idea of putting in some cut up hot dogs. I'm going to give this recipe a try.

It sounds awful with that bread broken up in there!!! but I can't judge until I taste it. The problem is I will not make it so therefore I won't judge it.

why not let the buns get stale and use them as croutons?

I believe I would thicken it with instant potatoes over hamburger buns.
