Hamburger Soup
One big regret I have is not getting the recipe for my Grandma June’s Hamburger Soup. She passed away at the end of 2012. I miss her dearly. I was lucky enough to get some of her handwritten recipes. I’ve already shared her Hurry Chicken. I decided to take a crack at her Hamburger Soup and see if I could get it close. Grandma June always referred to it as “Hamburg soup”.
Beef was always plentiful around grandma’s house. Her life partner, Clarence, is a beef farmer and she always had a freezer full of his beef.
I hope my grandma approves of this version of her soup. I love it because it’s hearty, filling and flavourful. It’s pure comfort food that is perfect to enjoy on a cold winter’s day when you’re tucked inside the house.
I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as my family has. Every time I make it, I think fondly of all the precious memories I have of my grandma.

My grandma made this soup and it brings back the same feelings for me.
Our family loves this soup and we make it quite often. Its real nice in the winter but we even have it in the summer. Now I am hungry for some. Its so easy and quick to make too.
Love your soup recipe. I have made one similar for years. A couple of years ago we went to Nova Scotia and we were in our camper staying at an RV resort. While there, we went to a cookoff at the local fire station and I bought a loaf of homemade bread. I don’t know if it was made with oats or what but it was so good and I have been trying to find something like it ever since. I know this is a long shot but maybe you have heard of something. Thanks
Hi Nancy, I’m not really sure – sorry!
I’ve made this soup several times, tasty and filling, and a whole meal in a bowl 🙂
