Barley Soup

By Laurie

Ingredients

• 3-4 smoked hamhocks
• l bag baby carrots (can be cut in half for smaller pieces)
• 1 small onion, diced
• 2-3 potatoes diced or cubed.
• I usually add 1 cup or more of barley - but then I like the barley and for us, the thicker, the better!

Preparation

Step 1

Put them all in the crock pot. Add enough water to almost fill the crock pot. Add salt and pepper to taste. The hamhocks usually provide enough salt, so I usually just add the pepper. Turn it on, and go for the day.
