Made up a batch of soup from the rack off a bone in prime rib.

Since it was already browned from roasting, I just split it in half and tossed it in a pot with a chunked up carrot, stick o celery, and an onion. A bay leaf, some peppercorn and thyme added them covered with water and simmered for about 5 hours.

Strained the broth, picked the meat and tossed the bones, diced up another onion, more celery and carrot, and a bunch of de-stemmed collards along with some [bleep] mushrooms and a parsnip.

Veg got a saute in a big pot, dumped the strained stock back in, a couple cups of pearled barley, let simmer for an hour then finished with the picked meat and more thyme, salt and pepper.

I love making soup. Love to eat it too!
