This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

Unusual recipe but good

EXCELLENT recipe! The whole family loved it!

I started making this last year and it is a consistent family favorite. I did change the ratios a little, I use 2 cans of beans (actually, 2 cups of dry beans, pre-cooked) and only a half-cup of barley. If you want this to be gluten free, use rice instead.

Absolutely delicious - this recipe is actually word for word in "In Good Time" a weight watchers slow cooker book, I assume it's theirs originally. So tasty!

A really good one! It's now a family keeper. Also, my sister cooks for a retirement home and is now using this recipe for the residents!

This has become a family favorite! I changed the proportions a little: use 2 cans of beans and 1/2 cup of barley. Great with a side of quacamole too. Awesome recipe, thanks!
remember to use a VEGETABLE broth instead of the CHICKEN broth they reccomend if you would like this to actually BE a vegetarian dish.
