This recipe is a cultural phenomon in the areas of Green Bay and DePere, Wisconsin. A daughter and family lives in this area. when visiting 1 keep seeing these signs about a Booyah supper, bring your containers at the different churches. Eventually I found that this basically a chicken soup prepared in good ole Wisconsin outdoors style.
