Add water and bring to a boil. While waiting for water to boil, add kitchen bouquet for desired color and hot sauce, base, and seasonings. You want to make it too salty for a
soup, but not overly salty. When it reaches your desired taste "your good".

Cover and stir again for 10 mintues. Cover and repeat for 10 minutes. Stir in green onions and cook for an additioanal 5 minutes.
Remember, for every 5lbs of meat you can feed 20 people. So for 100 people, you will need 20lbs of meat and 10lbs of rice. 75% pork 25/5 sausage.
