  4. Pour some of the beef broth into the bottom of the pan and deglaze the bottom.
  5. Add in the rest of the broth, then the canned tomatoes, and Worcestershire sauce to the pot.
  6. Bring to a low simmer, then reduce the heat and cover.
  7. Cook for 20 minutes until the beef starts to become tender.
  8. Add in the barley.
  9. Add in the potatoes and celery and cook for another 15 minutes until the potatoes are tender.
  10. Stir in the frozen vegetables and cook for 10 minutes more until the barley and the veggies are tender.
  11. Add more broth if the soup is too thick at this point. Taste and add salt and pepper as desired.
  12. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve.
