Provided by Jeff Mauro, host of Sandwich King

Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
6 ounces kielbasa, cut into 1/2-inch dice
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 carrots, finely diced
2 stalks celery, finely diced
1 small onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon dry mustard powder
Pinch cayenne pepper
4 small round boules (about 7 inches each)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
2 cups chicken stock, warmed
1 bottle pale ale, pilsner or lager
3 cups sharp yellow Cheddar, shredded
5 ounces Gruyere, shredded
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the kielbasa and cook until browned and crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside.

  • Use fresh, sharp cheddar cheese: The cheese is another crucial ingredient in beer cheese soup, so use a high-quality cheddar that is sharp and flavorful. Avoid pre-shredded cheese, as it often contains additives that can affect the taste and texture of the soup.
  • Don't boil the beer: When adding the beer to the soup, avoid boiling it. Boiling will drive off the alcohol and some of the flavor of the beer. Instead, bring the soup to a simmer and then add the beer.
  • Season to taste: Once the soup is simmering, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. Some common seasonings that go well with beer cheese soup include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and paprika.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Beer cheese soup is typically served with a variety of toppings, such as shredded cheddar cheese, bacon, croutons, and green onions. Choose your favorite toppings and add them to the soup before serving.
