Ingredients in Beef & Cabbage Soup

Beef – Chuck roast is my first choice as it is is very tender. If using stewing beef, you may need to add extra time before adding the vegetables.

Cabbage – Green cabbage is easy to find year-round and adds bulk to this soup

Broth – A beefy tomato broth gives beef cabbage soup its hearty flavor.

Vegetables—Any veggies work in this recipe! Toss in a frozen bag of peas, carrots, corn, and green beans.

Variations – Bulk up beef and cabbage soup by adding cooked egg noodles, white or brown rice, or quinoa.

Short on time? Use ground beef instead of chuck roast or toss in a bag of frozen meatballs in Step 4.

  • Season the beef with salt and pepper and then toss with the flour.

  • In a large soup pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the beef in small batches and brown on each side, transfer to a bowl.

  • Add more oil if needed and add the onion, celery and carrot. Cook until the onion is tender. Add minced garlic and cook for 1 minute more.

  • Add in the browned beef, the broth, whole tomatoes, tomato paste, thyme leaves, oregano, Worcestershire sauce, and bay leaves. Bring to a boil over medium high heat, reduce to a low simmer and cover. Cook covered for 75 to 90 minutes or until the beef is fork tender.

  • Stir in the cabbage and potatoes and simmer covered for an additional 30 to 35 minutes or until tender.

  • Remove bay leaves. Taste and season with salt, pepper, and a pinch of sugar if needed.

Chuck roast is the most tender and will be tender in about 90 minutes. If using stewing beef, you may need to add an extra 30 minutes to the cooking time. The beef should be tender before adding the vegetables.
