BBQ Bob's Holiday Turkey Soup
Tip: Use the turkey leftovers from a holiday meal.


Ingredients
1 turkey carcass
6 cups water
8 cups chicken broth
4 large onions, 1 quartered and 3 chopped
1 cup diced rutabaga or turnip, peeled
1 cup chopped celery
4 carrots, peeled and cut into thin strips
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1 bay leaf
1/2 teaspoon ground white pepper
1/4 cup pearl barley
1 can (14 ounces) whole tomatoes
1 can (16 ounces) white beans, rinsed and drained
3/4 pound leftover turkey meat, cut into bite-size chunks

Directions
In a large stockpot, combine the turkey carcass, water,
broth and quartered onion. Bring to a boil over high
heat. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 3 hours.
Strain the mixture, discarding the carcass and onion.
Chill the liquid in the refrigerator, overnight, if
possible and skim off the fat from the broth's surface.
Return the liquid to the stockpot.
Add the remaining ingredients to the broth mixture.
Bring to a simmer and cook, covered, for about 1 hour.
