It is traditional where I am from to have soup twice a day, lunch and supper. In the winter the most popular soup is hunters stew (bigos). It is basically what ever meat you have, spices similar to pickling spice, tomato, mushrooms, sauerkraut and cabbage.
Tradition says it is on the back burner at all times, and every day you add stuff to get the pot full. So there is no real recipe, just add left over meat and keep the main items like cabbage added. My family strives for multiple meat types like beef, pork,venison, and associated sausages - not really chicken or turkey.
