Genuine rhymes come from the /uːtʃ/ ending: smooch, pooch, mooch all rhyme with brooch. Lookalikes that sound different: broach /brəʊtʃ/ and breach /briːtʃ/ have a different vowel, so they do not rhyme. Broom shares the initial 'broo' spelling and /bruː/ sound, but its final consonant is /m/, not /tʃ/.
