Ingredients

  • 3-4 lbs of mixed beef bones 1.4-1.8 kg, oxtail, knuckles, neckbones and/or short ribs
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 2 medium carrots
  • 3 celery stalks or 150 g/ 5.5 oz celeriac
  • 2 medium onions
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 2 teaspoon peppercorns
  • fine sea salt to taste

Instructions

  • Roast bones: Preheat oven to 400°F/ 200°C. Place the beef bones in a single layer on a roasting pan. Drizzle with the oil and rub the bones to coat with it. Roast for 30 minutes, then flip the bones over and roast for an additional 30 minutes.

  • Simmer beef bone broth: Place bones, bay leaf, cider vinegar, chopped vegetables, some salt, and peppercorns in a large crockpot or soup pot. Cover entirely with water and bring almost to a boil, but don't let it start to boil. Add salt. Turn the heat down to low and let simmer for 12-24 hours. If using a crockpot/slow-cooker, simmer on Low for 12-24 hours. Add water, if necessary, to keep all the ingredients submerged.

  • Strain broth: Once the broth has reached a dark rich brown color, remove from heat. Discard the bones, vegetables, and bay leaf and strain through the bone broth through a fine-meshed sieve lined with a cheesecloth into a clean pot.
  • Store bone broth: Once at room temperature, pour into jars. Add more salt to taste when using the broth.
  • Skim the fat off the top of the broth before using it. Use as suggested above.

Notes

Store in the fridge: If you fill the hot soup in mason jars and place it in the fridge after it gets cold, the broth will stay for at least 3 to 5 days.
Freeze: If you think you cannot use it up so quickly, you could pour the broth into smaller containers and freeze it.
