What did your mama fix you when you didn't feel good
Well, my mama. Low battery. Are you freaking kidding me? so what did your mama fix you when you didn't feel good well i know what my mama made
and it was chicken noodle soup so we're gonna make chicken noodle soup today but it's not
gonna be out of a can trust me we're gonna make some Dutch oven chicken
noodle soup today so you guys hang on here we go All right, well, we're gonna get this chicken noodle soup started today, and
I got my 14 inch Dutch oven and I got it heating up and we got about three big old chicken breasts
and we got them chopped up finely so we're going to begin to cook these and simmer that meat down and
we'll let that stew up a little bit and then we're going to add some carrots
and some celery and some onion and a few other things so we'll be back here
just shortly and show you what we've got going on. Okay, well we've had this
It simmering for a little bit We got about I using my 14 inch Dutch oven so in order to simmer and roast like chicken or whatever to make a soup uh generally what i usually do is i divide my
amount of coals you double your coals and then divide them i got like 14 hot coals on the bottom
and 14 on top so oh yeah that's simmering real good so let me go ahead I've got some carrots and
some celery and I got a little bit more chicken in here I had one chicken breast left I thought
I might as well go ahead and use it wasn't no sense in just saving one was there no so anyway
like I said you know mama used to make chicken noodle soup for me when I was
sick or didn't feel good and today we've got some people that not feeling real
good some friends of ours been going through quite a bit some of them had to
quarantine and this that and the other and and so Teresa asked me this morning
she said I know you're gonna be making a video soon won't you go ahead and just
make a pot of chicken noodle soup for everybody and we'll just take it to
everybody and and try to help heal them up a little bit because you know chicken
noodle soups healing I don't know what it is about it but there's just something
in it that is so good I know every time I get sick that's the first thing I want
I want me and Teresa to have a big old pot of chicken noodle soup and of course
like I showed you the can earlier. I don't want to make it out of a can if unless I have to and
I don't typically do it this way but today I just bought six big old boneless skinless chicken
breasts and I diced them up real good and I took a package of carrots and diced them up pretty good
took and diced up two medium yellow onions and also diced up a whole bag of celery and the other
thing I'm going to add to this of course we'll end up putting some chicken broth in here we're
going to let this boil down a little bit but we'll put some chicken broth in that we're going to add
some parsley to it in a little while we're going to put a can of cream of chicken in this we're
We're gonna put our SPGO salt and pepper and garlic powder and onion powder in there
And we're gonna add a little bit of herb poultry seasoning. I gonna add thyme You know chicken needs thyme Everybody says how much time does it take chicken Well I don know but a chicken needs time so we going to put some time in it And then I going to add a couple bay leaves in here too
We're going to let that simmer for a good while, probably about 45 minutes or so
And that way these carrots and celery and the chicken will be cooked good before we ever put our egg noodles in
and I've got a bag of egg noodles here. Once this all gets done, we'll add these egg noodles to it
and then we'll come back to you and show you what that looks like here in a little bit
Well, all right, this thing's been cooking, stewing and boiling and everything else
for about an hour, hour and a half, so, man, look at that
Let's stir this up. Oh, yeah. So while you were gone, or while we were gone, we went ahead and added all of our vegetables and our spices to this Dutch oven chicken noodle soup
And everything looks like it's cooked real well. The chicken's done. The carrots are done
And so we're going to go ahead and probably leave that lid off for a little bit
Add the rest of these, or add these noodles to it. and let them cook real good
And this is just a bag of egg noodles, white egg noodles
So I'm going to put the whole bag in here. This is a big pot of chicken noodle soup
Get this stirred up. These old egg noodles, they'll absorb a lot of this liquid out of here. so
get that stirred up and let them cook for about
15 or 20 minutes or so I'm going to go ahead and put this lid back on
and we'll let that cook for a few minutes and we'll come back to you
here shortly alright well it's been about 20 minutes and so those noodles ought to
be done I got Miss Teresa out here with me we're going to
take a look at this. Oh yes, that's looking real good right there
All right well I tell you what I think I gonna dip a little bit of that up and we gonna try this
Got our Campbell's Soup cup here and man this stuff right here I guarantee
is a lot better than Campbell's Soup in a can. Yes indeed
Sure looks good. I got a bay leaf right there. Oh yeah
Looking real good right there, folks. Let me go ahead and put this lid on
I sure don't want some of these pine cones to fall in my soup. Like I said, we've got several people that's
home sick, quarantined, or whatever. and we decided to make a little bit of soup for them and take to them
Like I said, when I was sick and everything growing up, Mama always made me some chicken noodle soup
And so we got some here that we made in a Dutch oven
and we're going to give her a taste test and see what it's like. You ready, Miss Teresa
Yeah, it's hot. yeah folks you can't beat that nothing like some good old dutch oven chicken noodle soup
and that is so good and so hearty that's healing in a cup right there
you know in these times that we're living in we got to help our neighbors out
help our friends and family out and everything a lot of people going through a whole lot so
So, you know, this is a lot bigger pot of chicken noodle soup than I normally make
But Teresa asked me before she went to church this morning if I would make one
and we can take some to those people that shut in and different things going through a whole lot
So that's what we're going to do, folks. And, hey, we appreciate it
