Booyah is a stew created in Northeastern Wisconsin by Walloon-Belgian immigrants (particularly in the Green Bay area). The name is believed to be derived from the French word bouillir, meaning "to boil." The stew is sometimes created in giant steel kettles and stirred with boat paddles at things like church picnics, or other gatherings in areas with a high Walloon-Belgian population. On large scales like this, it usually takes a day or two to cook.
