BEEF BONE BROTH RECIPE

*Recipe adapted from "Beef Bone Broth Recipe" by Dr. Axe*

• 4 pounds beef bones with marrow ( I highly recommend roasting the bones, adding a little tomato paste before roasting adds a great flavor and color to your bone broth).

• 4 carrots, chopped

• 4 celery stalks, chopped

• 2 medium onions, peel on, sliced in half lengthwise and quartered (vegetable scraps works well also. Just save some in the freezer in a bag or container).

• 4 garlic cloves, peel on and smashed

• 1 teaspoon kosher salt

• 1 teaspoon whole peppercorns (fresh ground pepper is fine if you don't have whole pepper corn).

• 2 bay leaves

• 3 sprigs fresh thyme

• 5-6 sprigs parsley (may use dried herbs or spices, I always add a little turmeric and ginger to my broth).

• ¼ cup apple cider vinegar

• 18-20 cups cold water (no need to measure, just make sure your bones are completely covered).

DIRECTIONS:

1. Place all ingredients in a 10 quart capacity crock-pot.

2. Add in water.

3. Bring to a boil over high heat; reduce and simmer gently, skimming the fat that rises to the surface occasionally.

4. Simmer for 24-48 hours.

5. Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly.

6. Discard solids and strain remainder in a bowl through a colander. Let stock cool to room temperature, cover and chill.

7. Use within a week or freeze up to 3 months.

We use bone broth in any recipe that calls for beef broth. We also add bone broth to our four dogs dry dog food.
