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 1

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.

Step 2

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.
Step 3

While vegetables cook, remove meat from bone and discard bone and fat. Dice remaining meat and set aside.
Step 4

Once vegetables are tender, add the quart of juice and macaroni. Cook until pasta is tender.
Step 5

Add the reserved meat, heat through, and enjoy!
