We are definitely in a soup mode around here. My husband loves soup for dinner but I know there are some men that don’t consider soup a meal. Today’s recipe for Steak Soup is a meal, in fact, it is pretty much a complete meal because you’ve got your vegetables, your starch and your protein all in one bowl.
Stew Ingredients
- Butter and Canola Oil. Could also use vegetable oil or olive oil.
- Steak. Top sirloin or you could also use stew beef.
- Vegetables. Onions, carrots, celery, potatoes, canned diced tomatoes.
- Tomato paste
- Seasoning. Salt, pepper, parsley, oregano, marjoram, paprika. You could also substitute Italian seasoning for the parsley, oregano and marjoram.
- Beef stock or beef broth.
- Worcestershire sauce
- Brown Sugar
- Flour. Used as a thickener, could also use cornstarch to make it gluten free.
How to Make Steak Soup Recipe
This soup comes together in just over an hour.
- Brown meat over medium high heat with melted butter.
- Mix together flour, paprika, salt and pepper and sprinkle over meat, this will act as a bit of a thickener.
- Stir together broth, water, Worcestershire sauce, tomatoes, onions and seasonings in a pot along with meat over medium heat.
- Bring to a boil and then simmer for 30-45 minutes.
- Add in vegetables and simmer for another 15 minutes. If you like your veggies a little crisp like we do, just cook them until fork tender.
Tips for Making Beef Soup
- Steak. Cut steak for steak soup into small, even bite size pieces so they cook evenly.
- Potatoes. Use a waxy potato such as a red or Yukon Gold. They hold up better in the soup. A russett potato will disintegrate after simmering for any length of time. Cut potatoes into even bite size pieces.
- Vegetables. Be sure and cut your vegetables into even size pieces too. I used carrots, celery and corn but you could add any your favorite vegetables. You could also use frozen vegetables if you prefer such as zucchini and mushrooms.
Frequently Asked Questions
I typically buy the precut stew meat at the grocery store but you can also use a sirloin steak and cut the meat into bite size pieces yourself.
I have a slow cooker version of steak soup that you can find here. You want to cook it on low for 8 hours.

Made this. It was delicious. I left out the oil and parsley, purely by accident. Had to add some garlic powder and some extra salt (at the end of course).Next time will add fresh garlic at beginning when sauteing meat and herbs. Awesome recipe, thanks.
