Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 19

4 slices thick-cut bacon
2 tablespoons butter
1 small onion (diced)
1 stalk celery (finely chopped)
1 carrot (finely chopped)
1 clove garlic (minced)
¼ cup flour
1 teaspoon dry mustard
12 ounces beer
1 cup chicken broth
1 cup heavy cream
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 bay leaf
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
½ teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme leaves)
6 ounces sharp cheddar cheese (shredded, divided)
12 slices baguette (1/2" thick)
2 tablespoons garlic butter
2 ounces sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)

Steps:

  • Spread garlic butter over 12 baguette slices. Top with cheese and place on a baking sheet.
  • Broil cheese toasts 6" from the heat until golden and bubbly, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside.
  • Cook bacon in a large saucepan over medium heat until crisp. Reserve drippings and remove bacon to a paper towel lined plate.

  • Slowly add beer a little bit at a time whisking after each addition. The mixture will be very thick at first. Add chicken broth and cream a little bit at a time whisking until smooth after each addition. Add Worcestershire sauce, bay leaf, smoked paprika, and fresh thyme leaves.
  • Bring to a boil over medium heat while whisking. Reduce heat and simmer 5 minutes or until thick and bubbly. Remove from the heat.
  • Set 1/4 cup cheese aside for topping, stir remaining cheese into the soup until melted.
  • Ladle the soup into bowls, top with reserved cheese and crumbled bacon. Serve with cheese toasts.

Best-Ever Beer Cheese Soup image

Provided by Amy Thielen

Time 55m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

8 tablespoons (1 stick) salted butter
1 to 1 1/2 large carrots, diced (about 3/4 cup)
3/4 cup small-diced piquillo peppers, or 1/2 large red bell pepper, diced
Fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 cups chicken stock, low-sodium store-bought or homemade
One 12-ounce bottle beer, preferably a mild-flavored blond or pale ale
1 1/2 cups half-and-half
12 ounces aged yellow cheddar (aged at least 2 years), grated
1/2 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Dash hot sauce
1/8 teaspoon grated nutmeg
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Mustard oil or extra-virgin olive oil, for garnish
Fresh goat cheese, for garnish
Fresh thyme leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a large stockpot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the carrots, peppers and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft, about 5 minutes. Add the flour and cook, stirring, until well incorporated, about 5 minutes more.
  • Add the chicken stock, beer and half-and-half and cook, whisking often, at a very slow simmer over medium-low heat for 15 minutes.
  • Add the cheddar to the soup by the handful, whisking each batch until smooth. Add the Worcestershire, hot sauce, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, the nutmeg, mustard and lemon juice, and stir to combine.
  • Puree the soup in batches in a blender (holding a thick towel over the lid to prevent overflow) until very smooth.
  • Just before serving, reheat the soup until steaming and taste for seasoning, adding salt as necessary. Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish each bowl with a swirl of mustard oil, a dollop of goat cheese and a sprinkle of thyme.

MINNESOTA WILD RICE BEER CHEESE SOUP RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Minnesota Wild Rice Beer Cheese Soup Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by á-12910

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 cup cooked wild rice
4 tbsps butter (you can use olive oil instead--this is for sauteing the veggies)
1 onion, yellow or white, diced
1 cup grated carrot
1 cup diced celery
1 cup broccoli florets (can used frozen)
4 cups chicken stock
2 jars Kraft Old English Cheese spread (substitute 12 oz of Velveeta for a cheaper option)
1 lb diced cooked ham or chicken
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 1/2 tsp basil
salt
pepper
1 cup water
24 oz of your favorite beer (don't go as dark as Guinness, but this is all to taste. I use Grain Belt Nordeast, some folks swear by Miller)

Steps:

  • Saute the onion in 2 tsbps of butter or the same amount of olive oil. When translucent, add to large pot. Add the wild rice, the chicken stock and broccoli florets. Put the burner on medium heat and lat that start to heat up. Saute the carrots and the celery in the same pan as the onion, add to the pot. Take 1 cup water, pour it into the saute pan. This will get all the leftover butter and veggie bits moving-pour it all into the soup pot too. Add the Worcestershire, and basil. Then salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil. Once it is boiling, add your meat of choice. Slowly stir in the cheese, making sure it isn't clumping, and keep stirring so it melts into a smooth consistency. Let it simmer for 5-10 minutes, don't let it boil. Add the beer. Go slow, the carbonation will make the soup puff up. Once the beer is in, let it simmer for another 5-10 minutes. If it tastes like a frat party when you test it, let it simmer for a little bit longer. Pro tip--if this soup gets you drunk, you didn't simmer the beer long enough. Serve in bread bowls. This soup can be topped with more cheese, popcorn, bacon, green onion, whatever you'd like--or you can eat it just the way it is.
