Usually give my mother-in-law the carcas. This year I wanted to try soup and so glad I did. This recipe had alot of flavor and was pretty easy. Plus after all the hard work on the Thanksgiving meal, it was a bonus to make another dish for later on. Tried one bowl and froze the rest to enjoy later. It was even better in January!. A new tradition from here on. (I don't like dealing with meat on the bone but I surprisingly managed this very easily)

Delicious! but I doubled the spices except for the Worcestershire and Bay leaves and used alphabet noodles, (1 cup) since I had no barley. Oh, and also added 3 or 4 boullion cubes.

I used 3 quarts of water. Everything else stayed the same and I slow cooked for 4 hours. Very good soup

Followed the recipe word for word and it had no flavor at all. This one was a bust!

This was very good, I added a little red pepper flakes other than that I only slightly modified the amounts of seasonings to my taste. I tripled it making twenty Quarts and froze the leftovers, and I'm glad I did so I can enjoy it all winter.

I followed this recipe completely and it had no flavor to it. It sounds good and mine looked pretty much like the picture shown. I thought with all the seasoning that it would have more flavor but it didn't. Maybe I did something wrong since I see it with so many stars but my husband makes terrific soup and we were doing it together and he agreed, no flavor. So we added more spices and chicken broth. And it turned out good but not great.

Very easy & versatile! Due to time constraints, I did Step 1, then strained and froze the broth and the turkey meat. I didn't have any cabbage or potatoes on hand, so I used two large sweet potatoes. Delicious! Next time I think I'll add a tad more barley.
