Seasonal Soup Board
Step aside grazing boards, cheese & charcuterie platters, and sandwich spreads! This cool-weather season we’re getting soupy. Soup is the perfect solution for feeding a hungry group. From tailgaters to couch potatoes, an eye-catching spread of soups, toppings, and fixings will make all tummies rumble in anticipation.
Seafood Soups for the Win!
Maryland Crabmeat Bisque
Only True-Blue Maryland crab meat will do for our bisque! This soup is rich and creamy, made with jumbo lump crab meat, crab stock, white wine, cream, fresh vegetables, savory herbs, and aromatic spices. A scrumptiously hearty soup for colder weather meals.
Our 32 ounce portions are perfect for 2-4 people (2 large portions and 4 smaller portions).
Maryland Crab Gumbo
Over a quarter pound of jumbo lump crab meat goes into our 32 ounce containers of Maryland Crab Gumbo. This broth and tomato-based soup is loaded with Cajun-worthy ingredients; fresh veggies, herbs, and seasoning. A flavorful treat that is milder than most gumbos.
Our 32 ounce portions are perfect for 2-4 people (2 large portions and 4 smaller portions).
Lobster Bisque
All of our soups are made fresh every morning, ensuring that you get the freshest and best tasting soup possible. This creamy bisque is chockfull of chunky pieces of Maine lobster all simmered in lobster stock, wine, and cream. A decadent addition for this soup season.
Our 32 ounce portions are perfect for 2-4 people (2 large portions and 4 smaller portions).
Styling your Soup Board
These are our favorite toppings and fixings to pair with our soups. When planning your soup board, make sure you have enough soup for all in attendance. We like using decorative mugs as our soup serving vessels. This allows folks to move about freely without having to juggle bowls. For prepping and planning toppings and fixings, plan for about 2-4 tablespoons of each fixing per person (so, if you’re planning on hosting 6 people, plan for 1 to 1 1/2 cups of each fixing or topping). For more heartier items (like noodles, rice, mini sandwiches, etc…) plan for 1/4 cup or 1 serving per person. If you’re planning on only offering a couple of toppings or fixings, increase your portions as appropriate. We also like keeping our soups warm in a crockpot for serving ease.
