COPYCAT LONGHORN STEAK RESTAURANT AND SALOON'S BEER-CHEESE SOUP

Make a roux of the butter or margarine and the flour (as if for gravy or cream sauce) and add to soup and stir and simmer until desired thickness. Serve with crackers.

Steps:

• 1. Over medium-high heat, melt butter in a 3 quart sauce pan. 2. Stir in flour and cook until flour has blended with butter. 3. Add chicken broth and stir constantly until mixture starts to thicken. 4. Add in milk and heat until it starts to simmer, stirring the whole time. 5. Stir in shredded cheese until smooth. 6. Add in potato flakes. 7. Add in LOTS of salt and pepper to taste - it really depends on taste, but I used 2 teaspoons of salt and 2 teaspoons of pepper. Start with a little and go up as you need! 8. Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth, or pour in batches into a blender. 9. At this point, bring your soup to a light boil and add in your diced potatoes. 10. Stir constantly but allow potatoes to cook until they are al dente. You want to make sure you keep stirring so the soup doesn't stick to the bottom of the pot. 11. Alternatively, you can boil the diced potatoes in a separate pot until al dente and add to soup right before serving. 12. Serve soup immediately with cheddar cheese, bacon bits, and green onions.

Steps:

• Add butter and peppers to large soup pot over medium heat. Sauté until peppers are tender.
• Add flour and half of chicken broth, stir with whisk to remove lumps and cook until thick and bubbly.
• Add remaining chicken broth, beer and half-and-half and stir. Add cheese a little at a time and stir constantly, making sure the cheese does not stick to the bottom of the pan and burn. Cook until cheese is melted and smooth.
• Add ground cayenne pepper, salt and two dashes of cayenne pepper sauce and stir.
• In a separate bowl, mix cold water and corn starch until smooth. Pour the mixture into the soup pot to thicken and add body. Continue to cook until soup is smooth and creamy.
• Transfer soup to a crock pot to keep warm until ready to serve. Additional cooking in a crock pot will ensure that the soup is over indirect heat, so the cheese does not burn at the bottom of the pan. Also, it will allow the red peppers to cook and soften into the soup.
• Serve soup in a bread bowl or in a bowl with large chucks of white bread on the side for dipping. Enjoy!
