This copycat Outback Steakhouse Walkabout Soup recipe is delicious, comforting, and just as good as the original!

Walkabout Soup
On a recent trip to Outback Steakhouse, I noticed that their Walkabout Soup wasn’t on the menu anymore (does anyone know if this is permanent? Will it be moonlighting as a “soup special” at all?). Panic set it. As soon as I got home, I searched for a copycat recipe. I tried the one I found a few times and tweaked it a little. This recipe tastes very, very close to Outback’s Walkabout Soup. I hope you enjoy my copycat recipe!

P.S. Yes, that is a copycat loaf of Outback Steakhouse Honey-Wheat Bushman’s Bread you see there in the picture.
Cook’s Note:
- If you’re serving this as a main dish, it will serve 6 people.
- After you whisk in the flour in step 2, a few small clumps of flour will remain. Don’t fret. They will be gone at the end of the 30-minute simmer!
