Cook ground beef in a large stock pot over medium-high heat until browned; drain excess grease.
Boil peeled and chopped potatoes in salted water until fork-tender, then mash with sour cream and set aside.

Whisk in flour until lightly cooked, then gradually add chicken broth while stirring continuously.
