I want to have easier access to it so that we drink/use it more often, but I don't want to waste any of it!

Depends on the salt content. Conventional food safety theory says 7 days max.

You may get some mileage out of freezing them in cube trays. We're using 3-4 cubes in a meal, and its easy to portion out.

Just talked to our grass fed beef butcher. Told her I like to make beef broth so wanted the soup bones. She is also giving me the "dog bones" and tail stuff.

Says adding those will make it even better. My 1/2 cow arrives later this month. Will be simmering beef broth for much of November.

I roasted a chicken tonight for supper and I had the crockpot ready to go with the veggies, spices, etc. so when I cut the chicken meat off the bone for supper, I immediately put the carcass right into the crockpot and turned it on. I'm excited for my second batch of chicken bone broth.

I've been having trouble getting enough liquid and food because I get filled up so quickly now that I'm pregnant. I've been relying on chicken bone broth. It's sort of a perfect pregnancy food, because it's hydrating, full of protein, has some fat, and is very nutritious!

JenLovie · 10-12-2012, 07:13 PM

I have my first batch of beef bone broth brewing! (Yay alliteration!). My mom and I are going to make soup tomorrow so I started the broth tonight. I know it won't be ready for the soup, but it'll still add some flavor.

NeshamaMama · 10-13-2012, 06:03 PM

I started my perpetual broth in the crockpot last night and just took out the first quart!

It is soooo yummy looking, I wanted to drink it all up right then, but I'm making myself save it for soup for lunch tomorrow.

It did reduce but didn't all evaporate like last time thank goodness. I'm excited to see how long I can stretch the bones from these next few chickens - I want to fill our freezer with broth because in a few weeks we'll have a new source of chicken and won't be buying whole birds for a few months. (I'm totally snagging multiple Thanksgiving turkey carcasses though!!

)

Am I correct in assuming that I don't season chicken broth if I plan to use it for smoothies and Popsicles? Just the chicken parts and nothing else, right?

raining_kisses · 10-15-2012, 04:31 AM

You are correct.

I made some chicken broth on the back of my stove instead of my slow cooker I kept having to add more water a couple times a day. I stopped it yesterday at about 4 days because I was tired of adding water and I only ended up with about 2 cups. I put it in the fridge and pulled it out this morning to put in some root soup to add nutrients. The whole thing was thick like refrigerated gravy. That must be the gelatin, eh? I even got brave enough to add the softest of the bone stuff. We'll see how it turns out.

JenLovie · 10-15-2012, 10:48 AM

My bone broth didn't go much past 36 hours, but that's okay. I've already used some in DS1's food and am working on freezing the rest. I need more than 1 ice cube tray.

PrincessAnika · 10-15-2012, 11:07 AM

got a rotisserie chicken at the store fri night because i didn;t feel like cooking.

fed dh and the girls, picked off the rest of the meat, dumped the bones and skin in the crockpot and filled it with water. sun am dumped it through the strainer, added in the rest of the meat chopped, cubed potatoes, shredded carrots, krazy salt, pepper, minced onion, onion powder, garlic powder, sea salt, and....i think thats it. yummy, but i cant eat much.

lalaithnil · 10-15-2012, 12:20 PM

So glad to read you were able to enjoy a little, Anika.

things ease up for you soon.

Barefoot · 10-16-2012, 01:31 AM

I made some ice blocks (popsicles?) for DS, half broth and half juice, he loved them.

Then I thought I had better get some into me, and I didn't exactly relish the thought of drinking it, so I made risotto with the broth as the liquid stock. OMGoodness, it was delicious. Roast pumpkin, chicken, peas, oregano. That is it. I am so glad there are leftovers for lunch tomorrow.

Chaos Coordinator · 10-16-2012, 04:57 AM

i boiled noodles in broth last night for homemade mac n cheese. i used a LOT of our broth cubes though, so when i boiled the veggies i just used plain water. i dont really feel like making more broth any time soon and i really didn't want to have to add it to my to do list just yet.

i am LOVING the broth cubes system. i add 2 cubes to our morning scrambled eggs. its so easy.

i neglected the bones from my last batch for too long and never got around to making any brothcicles for the kids.

oh well. next time.

lalaithnil · 10-16-2012, 05:53 AM

I am sick with a bad cold and my WONDERFUL DH started a crock of chicken bone broth for me last night.

Love is bone broth.
