Thanks to my friend Crystal for this new recipe we tried this week! I adjusted the water to add an extra cup, and used pot barley instead of pearl. Turns out pot barley is more nutritious but I used it because it was all I could find, not because I’m trying to be all “I’m so much more healthy than you”. Seriously, you’ve seen my other recipes, right?

- 1 can tomato soup
Instructions
- Place all ingredients in a 5 quart slow cooker and stir.
- Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or on high for 4-5 hours
This looks awesome! My husband went bison hunting last month, so it’s safe to say I will be making this recipe more than once!
Looks delish!
I always have to adjust for water with slow cookers – sometimes everything boils over if I am too generous and I have a heck of a mess on my hands.
Tried this one on the weekend, and it was awesome, I am going to make a few more batched and can them for taking to work!
I was brought up on Beef and Barley soup and I will make this in our slow cooker during the winter months. Sometimes my recipes get overcooked in the slow cooker, I have to get the timing right.
I left my beef and barley recipe on the cookbook giveaway comments in case you want to try it out or anyone.
Sounds delicious! Thanks for sharing
Oh yum! It looks so hearty!
Love beef barley soup. This recipe looks great.
oooh, this looks hearty, filling, and yummy!
looks like a great recipe….I would sub wild or brown rice for the barley as I am gluten-intolerant.

I have turkey veggie in my slowcooker this morning and in my small slow cooker I have beef stew happening.
We love beef and barley soup here and the more barley the better. This looks very good. I haven’t had this in some time. Gives me an idea for later this week.
