Grassfed Beef Bone Broth
At Baldwin Farm, we believe that there is something worthwhile in every part of the animals we process. Bone broths as a healthy and flavorful way to use solid and nutrient-dense bones. Bone broth is excellent as a rich, nourishing supplement and excellent in soups and sauces for flavor and nutrition.
How to Make Grassfed Beef Bone Broth
Aside from the nutritional benefits of bone broth, it's also insanely easy to make. It's not a quick process, but you can always double this batch and store the extra in the freezer.
Grassfed Beef Bone Broth Recipe
Ingredients
5 pounds of grassfed beef bones. You can use a mix of any combination you'd like, such as canoe, knuckle, marrow, oxtail, rib bones, and any other bones you may have.
1 large onion, quartered
2 medium carrots, cut into 2-inch pieces
3 stalks of celery, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 bay leaves
1/8 cup cider vinegar
Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Place bones in a large, shallow roasting pan. Bake bones for 30-45 minutes, or until well browned, turning at the 15-minute mark. Remove from oven.
Transfer bones into a large stockpot. Pour ½ cup of water into the roasting pan and use a wooden spatula to scrape up any browned bits. Add the water and scraped bits mixture into the pot along with onion, carrots, celery, bay leaves, and vinegar. Add enough water to cover the mixture and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat, cover, and simmer.
Cook at least 4-5 hours, skimming the foam as it occurs. If necessary, add water during the first 2 hours to keep ingredients covered. We recommend simmering the mixture for up to 48 hours if you have the time.
Over a large, heatproof brown, strain broth through a fine-mesh sieve or a colander lined with cheesecloth. Remove bones, vegetables, and seasoning.
Chill broth, then lift off the fat. Store fat in the refrigerator for one month or freeze for up to a year. Store the broth in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for a year.
