A hearty and creamy soup that combines the flavors of a cheeseburger with the comfort of potato soup.
Cook the ground beef in a large pot over medium heat until browned, breaking it up with a spoon as it cooks.
Ensure the beef is evenly browned for the best flavor.
Drain any excess grease from the pot, leaving the cooked beef.
Use a spoon or tilt the pot carefully to remove the grease.
Add the diced potatoes, evaporated milk, butter, sour cream, and seasonings to the pot.
Cut the potatoes into small, even pieces for quicker cooking.
Simmer the mixture over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are tender, about 20 minutes.
Stir gently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
Serve the soup hot, garnished with optional toppings like shredded cheese or green onions.
Serve with crusty bread for a complete meal.
