Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Beef bones
- 2 medium Carrots
- 2 stalks Celery stalks
- 1 large Onion
- 4 cloves Garlic cloves
- 2 leaves Bay leaves
- 2 tablespoons Apple cider vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Sea salt
- 1 teaspoon Black peppercorns
- 16 cups Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Place the beef bones in a single layer on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 30 minutes, turning halfway, until well-browned.
While the bones are roasting, roughly chop the carrots, celery, and onion. Peel and crush the garlic cloves.
Transfer the roasted bones to a large stockpot. Add the chopped vegetables, garlic, bay leaves, apple cider vinegar, sea salt, and black peppercorns.
Pour cold water into the pot, making sure the ingredients are fully covered, approximately 16 cups.
Bring the pot to a gentle simmer over medium heat. Once it begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, and let it cook gently for 24 hours. Check occasionally to ensure the broth is simmering and not boiling. Skim off any foam or impurities that rise to the surface.
After 24 hours, remove the pot from the heat and strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve, discarding the solids.
Let the broth cool at room temperature before transferring it to airtight containers. Store the broth in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for longer storage.
Enjoy your Paleo Hearty Homemade Bone Broth as a warm drink or as a base for your favorite soups and stews.
