Wisconsin Beer Cheese Soup

Ingredients

1 tablespoon Butter
1 Onion, Chopped
2 Carrots, Chopped
2 Celery Sticks, Chopped
2 cloves of Garlic, Minced
4 tablespoons of Flour
1/2 cup Half& Half
2 cups of Wisconsin Cheddar, Shredded
1 tablespoon Mustard
1 teaspoon Worcestershire
1/4 teaspoon Pepper
1/8 teaspoon Red Pepper Flakes
Salt to Taste

Preparation

1
Start out by melting up the butter on medium heat. Add in the onion, carrots, celery, and garlic. Cook it all for a good 3-4 minutes.
2
Add the flour to the pan and stir it in well.
3
Next up you'll add in the beer and the broth. Let the soup heat up to a gentle boil.
4
Once your broth hits a gentle boil, turn the heat down to low and add in the the half & half and the cheese.
5
Allow the cheese to melt completely and then add in the mustard, worcestershire, pepper, and red pepper flakes.
6
Grab your immersion blender and smooth out your soup. If you don't have an immersion blender, you can puree batches in a blender. Just make sure you don't fill it more than a third full at a time and cover it tightly so you don't end up with a soupy mess.
7
Add a bit of salt to taste and you're ready to enjoy a big ol' bowl of true Wisconsin love.
