Usually, I talk about how the fall-like weather is making it feel like booya time.

Since that weather seems a far way off this year, all I can say is that the thick, rich stew, cooked over an open flame, is good in any weather!

In fact, my family usually makes it during the summer.

Anyway, here’s our annual list of booya events. Every organization’s booya recipe is a little different — so maybe get out there and try a few! These are mostly fundraisers run by volunteers, so you’re eating for a good cause.

If your organization is holding a booya, please send your information to eat@pioneerpress.com, and we’ll add it to our list.
