Ingredients

  • 2 lbs Beef Soup Bones
  • 1 Carrot, cut into chunks
  • 1 stalk Celery, cut into chunks
  • 1/2 Onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 clove Garlic, chopped
  • 2 sprigs Parsley
  • 2 sprigs Fresh Thyme (or 1 tsp dried thyme leaves)
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 4 Whole Peppercorns
  • 1 Bay Leaf
  • Apple Cider Vinegar optional
  • Water (about 6 cups)

Instructions

  1. Roast the soup bones, carrot, celery, and onion at 450℉ for 1 hour, turning and stirring every 15 minutes.

  2. After roasting, remove the bones and vegetables from the pan and arrange in the bowl of the Instant Pot. Add in garlic, parsley, thyme, salt, peppercorns, bay leaf, and (if you are using it) a splash of apple cider vinegar which helps to pull the nutrients from the bones.

  3. Slowly add in the water (about 6 cups) until you reach the max fill line of the Instant Pot.

  4. Seal Instant Pot and set valve to "Sealing".

  5. Select the "Soup/Broth" option on the pot settings and adjust time to 2 hours.

  6. Once cooking time is complete, let the Instant Pot pressure naturally release.

  7. Remove and discard the bones, vegetables and any other solid matter from the broth (keep and use the meat for other recipes).

  8. Next strain the broth through a fine mesh strainer (or one fitted with a piece of cheesecloth).

  9. Refrigerate the broth overnight to allow the fat to rise and solidify. The next morning skim the fat from the top of the broth and freeze broth for later use.

Recipe Notes

Slow Cooker Instructions

  • Roast as directed, then place all ingredients in a slow cooker and cook on Low for 8-10 hours.

Consistency

  • Bone broth will have a gelatinous (and wobbly) consistency. When it is heated it will return to its liquid form.

Storage

  • I store these in 1 or 2 cup portions that can be easily defrosted and used as needed
