- Next, mix together flour, thyme, salt and pepper, sprinkle the flour over the browned meat and stir to coat.
- In a large pot add the vegetable broth, oxo cubes, Worcestershire sauce, diced tomatoes, diced red pepper and meat mixture; bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium low, cover and simmer until meat is tender, about 45 minutes to an hour.
- Next add the potatoes, carrots, celery, mushrooms and poblano chile and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are tender and the soup has thickened.
- If you find the soup too thick add more vegetable broth, a little at a time.
- Just before serving stir the fresh chopped basil into the soup.

Made for CrazE Contest 2011. LOVED IT!!!! I made the whole batch even though it was just me as it is hunting season. Leftovvers the next day were even better than the first. Maybe because I knew how good this was. I did add in the poblano even though I do not like heat, however instead of seeding and dicing, I seeded and put 2 halves in so I could remove them before eating. What great flavors! I did use homemade veggie and beef broth from my freezer. All else was the same. Wonderful soup and I sure will use this again through our cold snowy winters! Great job Chef. Good Luck!

Great flavoursome soup, nice and healthy too ! I used 2 trimmed pork steaks instead of sirloin and diced all my vegies up pretty small. I did leave out the tomatoes as I had none in the house but the soup worked out well and we all enjoyed it greatly. The recipe makes a big batch so we also have lunch for tomorrow now which is a great help.
