It's soup weather

The other Saturday we got together and made some chicken corn soup. We had been talking a few days before that about the volume of soup Grandma Smucker used to make for wholesale for a local farmshow food stand. We were glad we no longer need to add that hectic schedule to our current crazy schedule but decided we were hungry for Grandmas' soup again.



Jay had some cases of chicken that needed to be used so it was cooked, deboned and added back into the broth in the kettle.







Our version of 'steamy' pictures.



Added noodles, corn and parsley - we don't put eggs in ours like some do.


Made sure it passed the tasters inspection.



It's nice to have a place where we can make a big batch, a big mess and then hose 'er down.





I think 140 lbs. of soup should last us awhile, don't you?!

We have a few more lessons to teach these young-un's though - no sittin' down on the job.... in a puddle of water, no less.

It is a cool Friday afternoon, and when I visited your blog today, all I wanted to do was to reach through the computer and grab some of that amazing looking chicken corn soup. How nice it would be to have a place like that to make the soup. Do you sell it at your shop, or do you make it for all of you? Thanks for sharing this great post!
