Cabbage Soup Recipe with Texas Two-Step

Hearty, Beefy, and Loaded with Sausage

This cabbage soup is a full meal in a bowl: ground beef, sliced Polish sausage, tender cabbage, and tomatoes in a savory broth. It is the kind of pot that simmers on a cold day and feeds the whole table.

Two seasonings do the work. Cleve's Burger Booster goes into the beef while it browns, then Cleve's Texas Two-Step rounds out the broth at the end.

It comes together in one pot, scales easily, and tastes even better the next day.

Ingredients

(Serves 6 to 8)

• 1 lb hamburger
• 1 lb Polish sausage, sliced
• 1 head cabbage
• 1 large sweet onion, chopped
• 1 quart chicken broth
• 1 can tomato sauce
• 1 can diced tomatoes
• 1 to 2 tablespoons Cleve's Burger Booster
• Cleve's Texas Two-Step, to taste
  
  

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Brown the Meat

Brown the hamburger in a skillet, adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of Cleve's Burger Booster while it cooks.

2. Boil the Cabbage

Boil the cabbage until tender, then drain and chop it into quarter-size pieces.

3. Build the Soup

Return the cabbage to the pot and add the chicken broth, chopped onion, tomato sauce, diced tomatoes, sliced Polish sausage, and the browned beef.

4. Season and Simmer

Season with Cleve's Texas Two-Step to taste and simmer until everything is heated through.

Pro Tips

• Brown the beef with Burger Booster so the seasoning works into the meat
• Chop the cabbage into quarter-size pieces so it holds up in the soup
  
• Season the broth with Texas Two-Step at the end, tasting as you go
• Make it a day ahead, since the flavor settles and deepens overnight
  
  

Serving Suggestions

This soup pairs well with:

• Crusty bread or a warm roll
• Buttery crackers
• Cornbread
• A simple green salad

Hearty, beefy, and loaded with sausage, this is comfort food that fills a bowl and a kitchen. The cabbage goes soft and silky, the sausage adds smoke, and the broth pulls it all together.

Cleve's Burger Booster and Cleve's Texas Two-Step season it in two layers, from the meat to the broth. Make it once and it becomes a cold-weather regular.
