1
Cook the ground beef in a large stock pot over medium heat, breaking it up into smaller chunks, until the meat is no longer pink. With a slotted spoon, remove the ground beef from the pot and set aside. Drain the grease and return the pot to the burner.
2
Melt the butter with the oil. Gradually whisk in the flour, forming a roux. Stirring constantly, cook the roux for approximately six minutes until it turns light brown, similar to the color of peanut butter.
3
Add the onion, celery and bell pepper. Cook for five minutes until the vegetables are soft. Add the garlic and cook for 30 seconds.
4
Add the tomato sauce, crushed tomatoes, beef broth, bay leaves, thyme and Worcestershire sauce. Bring the soup to a boil, then cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
5
Remove and discard the bay leaves. Add the hardboiled eggs, lemon juice, sherry, parsley and cooked hamburger. Stir to heat through. Serve hot.
