It was very good. I have had a similar soup in a restaurant and wanted to duplicate it. Made this recipe after reading all the reviews. Thanks to all who wrote comments because I used many of the suggestions. I cut the salt down to half, I used half of the meat and shredded it because I wanted it to be like a Philly cheesesteak. I used beef broth and did not add all the extra flour, the only flour was from the dredged meat. I did add eight slices of American cheese, but not cheesy enough so I added about 10 oz of Velveeta. I did put a dash of hot haberna sauce. My daughter and her husband thought it was great. Will definitely make again and share this recipe.
