Re: Bone Broth 101
I just placed (hopefully not too late) an order with a farm for some grass-fed beef and added a couple of pounds of bones for broth. I'm stoked!

My peanut was up all night throwing up. I made him some homemade Gatorade and got some chicken wings on the stove for some soup later. |

Re: Bone Broth 101
We participated in a coop last year but it was a major disappointment (due to he way the coop was ran). I've heard fabulous things about this farm. I'm hoping I didn't miss their order deadline.

Re: Bone Broth 101
My perpetual broth is finally done for after 11 days.
So I took the bones out and was able to scrape quite a bit of marrow out. Someone with a vitamix/blendtec...I hope you make beef broth soon and try to blend the bones. I'm curious if it would work. Mine were still quite hard afterwards, although one of the thinner ones broke right up I smashed the chunks as much as I could with a spoon and then added a bit of milk and some broth and used my hand blender to smooth it out. I froze 6 cubes of it and used the dregs from blending to make banana/pear/buttermilk popsicles. I'm usually reluctant to try things that I know I've hidden things in but I stuck my finger in it and you could honestly not even tell there was bones in it, or buttermilk (which I also hate). Next time I'll try more bones and unflavoured broth. Then I used some broth and cooked carrots/spinach/lima beans (an accidental purchase by my dh ) in it and then used my hand blender to make gravy. YUM!!!!!!! Thabks for that tip. It is fantastic!!!!!! |

Re: Bone Broth 101
Okay, so I made broth on my stovetop like usual last night. This morning at some point I took out the 3 c. I needed for dinner tonight, put it in the fridge, and then added 3 c. water to the pot and let it keep simmering. I had to take it off the stove after about 19 hrs. total though, because I needed that burner.
So I strained the broth and packed it up but saved the bones and I'm wondering if I can "re-use" them in my crockpot since I didn't get to do the perpetual broth like I was hoping? |

Re: Bone Broth 101
I put my beef bones back in the freezer after 72 hours on the stove. I just plan on getting a new bone and some meat to add to the next batch so it doesn't taste weak.

Re: Bone Broth 101
That's what I was thinking too I feel like I'm wasting the beef bones if they don't cook until they're soft

Re: Bone Broth 101
Ok, *how* soft are you guys talking? Mine cooked for ELEVEN DAYS and they were still not something I would consider soft.

Re: Bone Broth 101
Soft in that they still hold their form, but can be crushed w/ the back of a spoon. Brittle might be a better term? Only some of mine got that soft, and they were probably the bones that I saved from crock pot meals (so they already had had a full day in the crockpot before going in for broth). I gave the harder ones to the dog, and she was able to eat them in a minute, so they were definitely softer than a regular cooked bone.
If you ever do a chicken, their bones get soft in 24 hours or less. Once, I strained off the broth and put the bones in the blender w/ a little broth because I thought that's what you're supposed to do. I tried adding some of the resulting sludge to soups, etc. and it was gross. Way too gritty

Re: Bone Broth 101
I'm baffled why mine never got soft like that, I dug out the marrow and smashed THAT up with the back of a spoon...man!!
Ps the sludge is good in popsicles |
