Going to a booyah this afternoon. In case some of you do not know what this is.
In the Midwest of the United States a booyah or booya is a pot of stew made for a large crowd. Usually made in August or September when the gardens are finishing up. People from the neighborhood bring over anything from their garden and some kind of meat. The men cook the stew and drink beer and bloody Mary's half the day. Then the rest of the family gathers in the mid afternoon to partake in the tasting of the stew.
I have always wanted to do my own booyah. Most of the time they get really overcooked and veggies are added too soon. But its usually pretty good.
