TIPS FOR MAKING BEEF BARLEY SOUP:

Use a hard piece of meat – this is a great example of when to use a tougher cut of meat such as a chuck roast or shoulder. You don’t have to purchase costly sirloin tips or anything like that.
Cooking the beef until it turns brown enhances the taste, but it is not completely necessary. I enjoy browning my beef because it gives it a rich flavor, but even when I skip this step, the dish still tastes great.
