Casserols/soups

[Sowsage]

Ok its getting nasty out and I'm making a grocery list for the week.. I need some comfort food ideas! Looking for some creative soups or casseroles I can make this week for the boys and I. Would love to hear some of your guys favorite ones for cold winter nights!

I don't have a recipe handy, but gumbo really hits the spot on a cold winter night. Potato soup is another favorite.

I was thinking about a potatoe soup.. But we had that not to long ago.. Gumbo sounds good!

White bean or split pea with a huge smoked shank

I have a few other ideas but I can’t find the links at the moment…lemon chicken orzo soup and a summer veg chicken soup

If you haven't done zuppa toscana yet @Steve H has a good recipe. Make it several times a winter. Also any kind of breakfast casserole is a winner around here

I got a breakfast casserole on the list! Lol! I like doing those because the reheat good for quick breakfasts before getting the boys on the bus.
I remember seeing steves soup get a lot attention here. I'll have to look it back up. Might be a go for that one!

A nice arm or chuck roast in the crock pot with taters and carrots is always a winner around here. We just finished one off.

I really enjoyed this cheese garlic ham pie/casserole as a comfort food. If you get a spiraled ham and potatoes for it you're also set for the ham and potato soup. Use the hambone for some split pea soup! https://www.smokingmeatforums.com/threads/cheesy-garlic-ham-potato-cake.312610/

Going to be making up Senate Navy Bean Soup this weekend. Using up some double smoked ham and the bone from Christmas. Really sticks to the ribs.

You need to change that .
I smoke a lot of whole birds . So this time of year means a second meal of chicken and dumplings or white chicken chili . Boil down the carcass and pick the meat . De-fat the broth .


I use my Spaetzle recipe for the dumplings .
1 cup flour
1/4 cup milk
2 eggs
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp white pepper
1/2 tsp salt
Mix together and use a spoon to drop into hot soup .
I use a couple different store bought mixes for the chili .
This is a good one .

Not sure i want anything to do with oyster and crap stew! You type like me lol! But speaking of goulash...I made some while I was divorced, wanted it thick, mother in law always made it with half juice I swear, turned out perfectly...fork stood straight up in it. Got back together with wife and remarried...she called it slump...but was still good!
