This soup is delicious and so easy to make! I love that I can just throw all the ingredients in my slow cooker and let it cook all day. The beef is so tender and the barley is cooked perfectly. I will definitely be making this soup again and again.

I'm not a huge fan of dill, but I decided to give this soup a try anyway. I'm so glad I did! The dill flavor is actually very subtle and it complements the other flavors in the soup perfectly. I will definitely be making this soup again.
