Just perusing the wikipedia pages for List of Soups and List of Stews and saw Booyah or Booya. You know anything about that? It’s a Wisconsin thing.
Couple of days to cook, multiple cooks, stirred with canoe paddles, feeds hundreds.
Fundraiser for fire departments, etc.
It’s s Northern Wisconsin Thang. While we DO have a cabin ‘Up North’ I don’t think the guys do this at Bear Camp.
If and when I get recruited as Head Cook (it’s coming; I’ve avoided it SO FAR) I’ll make sure it’s a Bear Camp Tradition.
Here’s more info and a scaled-down recipe that feeds TENS, versus HUNDREDS:
