For an even richer flavor, consider using smoked paprika in addition to the chili powder. If you prefer a smoother soup, you can use an immersion blender to partially blend it before serving. Be careful not to over-blend, as it can become too thin. Garnish with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of shredded cheddar cheese for extra indulgence. This soup pairs wonderfully with crusty bread or cornbread for dipping.

Jan 24, 2025This soup was a lifesaver! I had leftover pulled pork and didn't want to just make sandwiches again. This recipe was easy and delicious!

Jan 11, 2025I thought the soup was a bit bland at first, but after simmering for the full 45 minutes, the flavors really came together. Be patient!
