Ingredients

10 cups canned low-salt chicken broth

3 pounds smoked ham hocks (or diced ham and ¼ tsp. liquid smoke)

3/4 pound russet potatoes (about 2 medium), peeled, diced

1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes in juice

1 medium onion, chopped

2 medium carrots, peeled, chopped

1 cup chopped celery

3/4 cup pearl barley, rinsed

2 teaspoons dried oregano

8 ounces fresh green beans, trimmed, cut into 1/2-inch pieces

Directions

Bring broth and ham hocks (or diced ham and liquid smoke) to boil in large pot. Cover, reduce heat to medium-low and simmer 15 minutes. Add diced potatoes, tomatoes with juices, onion, carrots, celery, barley, and oregano. Bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low; simmer uncovered until meat and barley are tender, about 1 hour.

Using tongs, remove ham hocks from soup. Cut meat off bones and chop coarsely. Return meat to soup; discard bones. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead. Refrigerate uncovered until cold, then cover and refrigerate. Bring to simmer before continuing.) Add green beans; simmer until beans are tender, about 15 minutes. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper.

I agree with the others. Does sound so good, It's bookmarked. I like having different soups for the cold months. And up here fall isn't too far away, our fireweed is almost done blooming, and they say "when it cottons, summer's soon forgotten". But I'll wait until I start seeing the "Termination Dust"(snow) on the mountains, then fall is here.
