Prime Rib Soup

Prime Rob Soup on a white bowl with Bread

This Prime Rib Soup is full of leftover tender chunks of meat floating in a hearty bone broth. It is meat and potatoes in a soup and the perfect way to use those precious leftovers.  A Prime Rib being such an expensive cut of meat is reserved for special occasions at our house . As delicious as this meal is the meat just isn’t the same heated up,  so instead of wasting it I will make another meal out of it. Never , I repeat NEVER throw away those precious bones. Boil those babies up and make the most delicious broth you have ever had. Even if there is no meat left , save those bones.  This Soup is so easy it will soon be a favorite at your house.

I have very picky eaters at my house and one of my sons will not eat leftovers unless it is made into to something else. I would never let leftover rib roast go to waste, it is really a favorite meal we all can agree on .  Over the years I have gotten pretty creative when it comes to leftovers like making Omelets or Quesadillas, both my family loves.  Like I have mentioned before never let those bones go to waste!! If you know you won’t have time to boil them , put them in a ziplock bag and freeze them. At any given time I have frozen bones in my freezer waiting to be used .

Supplies Needed to Make this Soup:

This is a fairly easy recipe and you probably already have everything you at home.

Notes

If you don't like the flavor of red wine you can just add more broth. Also if you prefer you can use white wine. 
I have made this soup many times, it is easier of the bones are cut separate. Sometimes when boiling the ribs I will add a few sprigs of fresh herbs like thyme or rosemary for extra flavor
I have also added carrots and that is a great option

Hearty and delicious! I’ve been craving meat lately, and this is such a cozy, comforting soup. It’s delicious, and I can’t wait to make it again!

What a great way to re-purpose leftovers! It’s summer here and BBQ season has started and we are terrible at food portions so we always have leftover meat. This is such a good recipe for that!

This meat looks so tender, and nothing beats an authentic bone broth! With Christmas around the corner it could be good to get a nice cut of meat like prime rib, so thank you for this fantastic suggestion on how to use up leftovers!

I am a firm believer in using the last part of any ingredient, and using the bones from prime rib certainly fits in with that. I haven’t put red wine into a soup for a while, it would be perfect here!
