Hehehehe...Grandma used to call it the bottomless soup pot  :D cause it 
never really got empty since the water from cooking veggies went in and the 
broth from roasts and stuff that was not made into gravy...and Ras is 
right...if you refrigerate it overnight you can just peel the fat off the 
top of the broth....tho in Grandma's case it was more like a thick aspic 
 :)

Sure, that's also an old Cajun tradition as well.  Gumbo is
basically okra with the "leavings pot" broth and whatever meat you
have at the time.  I've been told by a swamp friend that it's
wonderful but be sure to strain everything with your teeth before
you eat it.
