Super Easy Bone Broth

  I made my first bone broth the other day and now I'm hooked. Not only is it easy to make, but it's also good for you and cheaper than buying stock. I will no longer throw away bones without first making a broth!

Servings: depends

Prep Time: 10 minutes
Total Time: 8-24 hours

Ingredients:

1 chicken carcass, you can also use beef bones, and the bones of other animals

2 tablespoons of organic Apple Cider Vinegar (I use this item almost everyday!)

enough water to cover all bones

you can also add several cloves of garlic and salt to taste  *optional

Directions:

1. remove as much meat as you can from the bones. I give the left over meat to Gordo.
2. place bones in a crock pot
3. cover with water (this is where your serving size will differ. Add more water if you need a larger serving, have more bones or have a large crock pot) 
4. add the apple cider vinegar and optional items
5. place lid on and set to low. I do this around 8pm and check the water level before I go to bed. You may add more water if needed. All bones to should remain submerged. 
6. After cooking for 8+ hours (24 max) turn the crock pot off.
7. at this time skim off any particles that are floating, you may even have a film ring along the edge. Remove what you can without removing too much broth. 
8. then when you can safely handle the container, pour the contents through a mesh strainer or through cheese cloth and collect the broth into a large bowl.
9. at this time you can either pour the broth into glass containers and store in the refrigerator or pour the broth into ice cube trays and freeze.
10. once the broth is frozen, simply place the cubes into a container you can seal. Use the cubes whenever you want to add a bit more flavor to your meals or in place of bouillon cubes.

  Many Traditional Diets consume bone broth on a daily bases.

  I use the broth to make soups and homemade baby food and I also consume it as a drink. 

  It's an easy way to add minerals to your diet.
