Equipment

  • Stock Pot
  • *Optional Instapot or Crockpot
  • cookie sheets
  • parchment paper

Ingredients
  

  • 3-4 Beef Bones Knuckle and Shanks are prefered
  • 4 Carrots
  • 1 bunch Celery
  • 3 large Onions
  • 1 head Garlic
  • Herbs use favourite mix of herbs, rosemary or thyme are always my favourites for beef
  • 3 tbsp Apple Cider Vinegar
  • 1 tbsp Peppercorns

Instructions
 

  • Peel vegetables
  • Roughly chop vegetables
  • Roast vegetables and beef bones for 30 minutes at 350
  • Place vegetables and beef bones in large stock pot and cover with water
  • Add Apple Cider Vinegar and Peppercorns
  • Bring water to a boil
  • Reduce to a simmer, and let simmer 12-24 hours
  • If using a crock pot, set on low for 12 hours and walk away.
  • You'll need to remove the vegetables, bones and meat by straining pot through a colander to end up with your broth.
  • Put broth in fridge to cool. You'll notice the gelatine and fat will solidify on top. Scrap it off and toss away.

Notes

Broth will last in fridge for approx 4 days. I chose to freeze mine in 2 cup measures in ziploc freezer bags. When making soups, casseroles and stews use a 1:1 ratio of stock to water. I figure 2 cups suits most recipes well.
