How to Make Bacon Cheeseburger And Fries Soup

  1. In a large pot or Dutch oven, brown 1 pound of bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove bacon and set aside, reserving 2 tablespoons of bacon grease.
  2. Add 1 large onion, chopped, and 2 stalks celery, chopped, to the pot and sauté in the bacon grease until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add 1 pound ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a spoon, until browned. Drain off any excess grease.
  4. Stir in 1 (28 ounce) can crushed tomatoes, 4 cups beef broth, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt.
  5. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 15 minutes.
  6. While the soup simmers, prepare the fries. Cut 2 large russet potatoes into fry shapes and fry in batches until golden brown and crispy (about 8-10 minutes per batch). Set aside.
  7. Crumble 8 slices of cooked bacon into the soup. Stir in 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese and 1/2 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese until melted and creamy.
  8. Once the cheese is melted, gently stir in the crispy fries. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
  9. Serve immediately, garnished with extra bacon and a sprinkle of fresh parsley (optional).
