Instructions
- Add chicken broth to a large soup pot. Add cubed potatoes and allow to simmer about 15 minutes or until potatoes are easily pierced with a fork.
- While potatoes are simmering, add ground beef (seasoned with salt and pepper to taste) and 1/2 cup barbecue sauce to a large bowl. Mash sauce and meet together. Transfer to a large pan or nonstick skillet sprayed heavily with cooking spray and cook, stirring throughout, until meet is browned and no longer pink. Drain liquid from pan and set meat aside.
- When potatoes are tender, add velveeta cheese and stir until cheese is melted. Stir in bacon (reserve some for topping), celery salt, onion, and remaining 3 tablespoons barbecue sauce.
- Allow to simmer 5-10 minutes longer to allow flavors to marry well. Lastly, pour soup into serving bowls and top with onion rings and extra crumbled bacon. Enjoy!
