I might be convinced to part with the Austin chili for a really good New England Lobster Bisque. (Austin's weird, yall. Texans will get that joke.)Originally posted by Michael_in_TX View PostTexas chili made in Houston, Texas chili made in San Antonio, and Texas chili made in Austin.
(I am not a soup person, unfortunately, unless I am sick with a cold. I need viscosity. Although I did have the most spectacular French Onion soup in Vienna one summer....it was absolutely amazing, so perhaps growing up with the ubiquitous Campbell's messed up me a bit.)Comment

My problem is I never met a bowl of soup I didn't like !!! If I had to pick some favorites, first it would have to be gumbo in all forms and styles but primarily seafood ....
Next, although some would categorize it as a stew as well, I would have to go with chili. And if someone out there comments on beans in my Texas style chili remember, I have over the horizon capabilities and I will hunt you down. First one is Texas style, the second is with verde peppers .....
Finally for me would have to be a number of Mexican style soups, no one favorite really. Here's some examples of Hatch lintel, good old frijoles and another verde style tortilla soup.
Like I said, it's like picking a favorite kid, I love them all equally. Good topic Ric, thanks for posting !!Comment

Jokes on you Panhead John. I have the magic "unblock" button given to me personally by Huskee in a moment of weakness. I promised to use it sparingly. That said, I just cancelled my invitation to you to come try some split pea soup. Did I mention I HATE PEAS?

Homemade chicken or turkey noodle (although Campbell's original chicken noodle is a "go to" when recovering from surgery/sickness). With matzo balls given Holiday Season.
Split pea with ham/smoked ham hock or cajun sausage.
Various versions of bean soup, mostly 9 Bean mix.Comment

I could list any of 10 as my 3 favorites, hard to separate them, but here goes:
Split Pea
Beef Barley
Cream of Mushroom
(My wife makes a Creamed Squash soup that is crazy good, the Fish Soup recipe over as Simply Recipes is amazing, and so is Riboletta (Rachel Ray's recipe)Comment

It's hard to pick 3!
Tortilla
15 bean soup
Hot and Sour Soup (homemade)Comment

Hard to pick just three. But here is my list (which would differ from my family):
1) Italian Soup
2) Gumbo (if we are calling it a soup)
3) Matzo Ball Soup (me), Chicken n' Dumplings (family).Comment

If I have to eat nothing BUT soup for a year, they better be soups of substance, so I'll go with:
- Beef stew (or chili)
- Gumbo (hoping I get some rice to go with it)
- Chicken Tortilla/Taco Soup of some sort
Honorable mentions would have to go to less substantial soups such as Hot and Sour, some bean soups, and chowders.

If I can only eat three soups for a year I think I'd just kill myself now to get it over with, without the torture of eating nothing but soup for a year.
If that's not a viable answer:
Lobster bisque
Bacon and Sweet Corn Chowder
Pho Bo
But even with eating that richly in terms of soup (no chili, no beef stews... you said soup)...Last edited by Potkettleblack; September 1, 2021, 02:06 PM.Comment
