Soup

[LPS]

I've never had the corned beef in a can but if I can handle Spam twice a year I can handle that.  Sounds like a fun recipe. 

[roony]

I usually don't change recipes until I've made something a time or two but in this case I think the corned beef you have in your freezer would work just fine.

The warden is making a good old beef vegetable soup for supper

[dutchboy]

I just picked up a frozen bagged old fashion chicken noodle and a wild rice from Von Hansens Meats. I'll toss them in the crock pot, I hope they aren't terrible.   

[dutchboy]

Just had a bowl of the Old Fashion Chicken Noodle. Wasn't horrible, but it wasn't memorable either.

A 7 1/2 out of 10. 

[roony]

The beef vegetable soup was very good. The soup bones had a lot of meat on them.

[KEN W]

I made pheasant and rice vegetable soup a couple days ago.....really good.

[Rodwork]

My family enjoys making soup. I have to add sauerkraut soup to all the other great soups mentioned. I will have to try that Reuben soup soon.

Is the "Caned Corned" beef a 12oz can or???

Yes

Thanks I'll weigh out home made and add a touch. Ya' never "Can" turn down too much corned beef "Can" ya?

Made a batch of pheasant noodle soup today from the roosters I shot the past weekend. Cooked the caucuses to get broth. Tasted great.

[Bobberineyes]

That's the way to do it Ken,  getting evey morsel off a bird is a plus!! 

[Jrasmussen]

I make a pretty good from scratch Chicken Noodle or Rice more often at my house soup. Take a whole fryer chicken and boil it in a pot of water. Once the chicken is cooked probably an hour or so, take it out and let it cool on a plate. Then chop up the veggies, I use celery, carrots and onion and put them in the pot. Then I season the soup, salt and pepper, some garlic powder and heavy dose of paprika till it tastes the way I want. Then chop up or break apart the chicken and let it all simmer until the veggies are soft. Drop in the noodles or rice and continue until that is cooked and your set.

[LPS]

I have to try that again.  Did it once but put way too many noodles in it. 

[Jrasmussen]

That is the hard part, even with rice it always looks like there should be more until you made stew or a casserole. Start with a smaller amount, you can always add more.

[KEN W]

I make that also. Did it the last time with left over turkey.  But I pre cook the rice or noodles first. And let them sit in the water until they have absorbed as much as possible. Because if there is any soup left over, the rice or noodles absorb all the soup broth and it becomes hotdish.

That is genius Ken. I will try that next time there is always left over cause you can't make a small batch of soup!

[LPS]

Great idea Ken.

This afternoon I will be making a big batch of ham and bean soup.  I had a bone and a nice big chunk of ham in the freezer so will use them up.  Got lots of carrots and celery and onions to add to it with a shot of liquid smoke and some apple cider vinegar.      Drooling just thinking about it.

[Jerkbiat]

That's sounds like a good idea. We have a bone and ham meat in the freezer too. Have to see how ambitious I feel.

[Rodwork]

It will be great weather for making soup this weekend. I am making 5 gallons of vegetable beef. Ham bean will come after I gather enough Christmas hams bones.  On my ham bean soup I like to add refried beans to thicken up the broth. It adds a nice texture to it.

[LPS]

5 GALLONS!!!   Now that is a batch of soup.   

[Cooperman]

Like the idea of adding refried beans.

[Rodwork]

5 GALLONS!!!   Now that is a batch of soup.   

The pot is so big that I had to replace my microwave hood range with one of those half high ones just to get clearance to stir it. Soup vacuum packs and freezes well. I make little bags and bring a pot with fishing. I use my big buddy heater to melt snow and place the soup in the bag into it. Eat right out of the bag once it 's hot and there is no clean up.

[Rodwork]

Just make sure your vacuum pack bags are BPA free.

[mike89]

the place i order mine from are BPA free

[Cooperman]

Rodwork, do you use a chamber vac sealer for freezing your soup?
