This hearty soup features potatoes, assorted vegetables and Cher-Make Ring Bologna, creating a delightful taste that will keep you coming back for more!


Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup chopped carrot
  • 1/2 cup minced celery
  • 2 cups shredded cabbage
  • 8 cups chicken broth
  • 5 tbsps all-purpose flour
  • 2 potatoes, peeled & cut into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 1/2 tsp dried marjoram
  • 2 packages Beef Ring Bologna 14 oz.

Directions

Melt 1/4 cup butter in a large saucepan and sauté the carrot and celery until tender. Add the leeks and cabbage and sauté for 3 minutes. Stir in the stock and bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15 minutes.

Melt the remaining butter in a separate skillet. Add the flour and stir over low heat until well blended, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat. Whisk in 2 cups of the hot stock and blend until smooth. Add the thickened stock to the vegetable mixture in the saucepan, stirring constantly. Add the potatoes and marjoram and simmer for 20 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. While simmering, remove the casing and dice the ring bologna. Add diced ring bologna and simmer an additional 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

Just to let you know we enjoy your natural casing hot dogs and polish sausage, might be the best we've ever had - KEEP IT COMING! - Robert C.

Cher-Make is the only summer sausage I will ever buy! - Becky B.

I typically don't like brats, but your pepper jack chicken brats are awesome! - Maggie T.

This was the first time I purchased your product. I bought 2 packages of your Homegame fully cooked bratwurst. They were great! We roasted them over our campfire and they tasted wonderful! I plan to try more of your products in the future. I am always glad to support great WI products. Keep up the good work! - Jane M.

We found Cher-Make hot dogs about five years ago and have not bought any other brand since, the flavor is great! - Shirley D.

Congratulations on the wonderful "easy to open" packaging on your ring bologna. What a treat to easily open your product. Thank you. - Janet A.

Every time I visit my parents in Wisconsin I bring home a suitcase full of Summer Sausage, and I make them bring as many sausages as they can fit every time they come visit me. Unfortunately I'm down to my last sausage right now, and I'm months away from another visit. My little girls are going to be so sad without their sausage sandwiches for lunch, and we just can't get anything good out here in California. Keep up the good work, and let me know if you can help us out! - Dave L.

Had your low fat, low calorie Chicken Brats last nite for the first time. They were excellent! - Ken H.

My son Dave lives in Long Beach, CA and I always take Cher-Make beef summer sausage and hotdogs (per his request) in my suitcase when I visit. It's the only type he (and 4 yr old granddaughter) likes. Do you ship directly from your factory? She turns 4 next week, she wants a desk and summer sausage for her birthday from Grandma. - Susan L.

We love Cher-Make ring bologna smothered in sauerkraut! - Sue H.

I love your stadium hot dogs and brats on the grill. It's not a tailgate party without them! - Shannon K.

We always take a couple sticks of summer sausage along when we go on vacation out of state! - Joann H.

Cher-Make Big W Dogs are so good, you don't need anything on them at all! - Tim G.

We recently found your natural casing wieners here in Michigan. Great snap and wonderful flavor! - Pat B.

Cher-Make is excellent! Clean place, friendly people and most of all, awesome food! - Tina D.

We live too far from home to get the good stuff locally. We would like to buy online in 50-100# lots. Maybe larger. Please save us from the inferior products that proliferate the grocery store counters. We need our Cher-Make sausage. - Phil B.

I won't buy anything else. Cher-Make is the best. - Venus M.
