                                          Instructions
                                           

                                          • Thaw frozen ground bison for at least 5 days in advance in refrigerator in a thawing tub at or below 41 ºF.
                                          • Add bison, oil and salt to large stock pot or tilt skillet. Cook bison on the day to be served to no less than 155 ºF for at least 15 seconds.
                                            Critical Control Point: Cook to 155 ºF for at least 15 seconds.
                                            Bison should be cooked low and slow (cooking the day before may be best. Cool down to 41 ºF within 6 hours of cooking it. Keep refrigerated until next day). Cook, breaking up meat until fully browned through.
                                          • Add barley and the water. Cook until barley starts to become tender (about 1 hour).
                                          • Add the rest of the ingredients (except for the cabbage; it is added at the end). Keep cooking until the vegetables become tender. You may need to add more water. Continue cooking for 1-2 hours until the barley is tender.
                                          • Add the cabbage. Cook until the soup reaches 165 ºF.
                                            Critical Control Point: Heat to 165 ºF for at least 15 seconds.
                                          • Portion into soup kettles.
                                            Critical Control Point: Hold for hot service at 135 ºF or higher.
                                            Serve an 8 fl oz portion.
                                          • Any remaining soup may be cooled down to 41 ºF.
                                            Follow this 2-step cooling process:
                                            Critical Control Point:
                                            Cool from 135 ºF to 70 ºF within 2 hours.
                                            Cool from 70 ºF to 41 ºF or below within 4 hours
                                            May be served back out, after reheating to 165 ºF for at least 15 seconds.
