This recipe has been passed down from my grandmother, to my mother, and then to me...time has come to pass it along to my daughters, and to all who enjoy a hearty, flavorful soup that eats like a meal. The slow simmer brings out the most flavor. You can speed it up, but it will not be the same.

How to Make Mom's Macaroni Tomato Beef Soup

Step-by-Step

Salt the roast and place in a deep stew pot. Cover with broth (or water) and simmer on low for 2-4 hours until the meat is fork tender.
Remove meat from broth. Strain broth and return broth to pan. Add vegetables and seasonings (adjust salt and seasoning to taste). Simmer until vegetables are tender.
While vegetables cook, remove meat from bone and discard bone and fat. Dice remaining meat and set aside.
Once vegetables are tender, add the quart of juice and macaroni. Cook until pasta is tender.
Add the reserved meat, heat through, and enjoy!
