Beef Bone Broth Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Place beef bones on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast bones in the preheated oven for 40 minutes, turning over at the halfway point.
• Carefully place bones into a large stockpot and pour in any juices that have collected on the baking sheet. Add celery, onion, leek, and garlic to the stockpot, and add just enough water to completely cover the bones. Stir in bay leaves, vinegar, salt, and pepper.
• Bring broth to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a very low simmer and cover, venting the lid a bit. Simmer for 12 hours, occasionally skimming off any foam and "gunk" that rises to the top. Add additional water whenever bones and vegetables are no longer covered.
• Remove the pot from the heat and cool broth to room temperature. Strain broth with a fine-mesh strainer into a clean pot. Discard bones and vegetables.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450°F. Place beef bones, carrots, leek, onion, and garlic on a roasting pan or rimmed baking sheet and roast for 20 minutes. Toss the contents of the pan and continue to roast until deeply browned, about 20 minutes more.
• Fill a large (at least 6-quart) stockpot with 12 cups of water (preferably filtered) . Add celery, bay leaves, peppercorns, and vinegar. Scrape the roasted bones and vegetables into the pot along with any juices. Add more water if necessary to cover bones and vegetables.
• Cover the pot and bring to a gentle boil. Reduce heat to a very low simmer and cook with lid slightly ajar, skimming foam and excess fat occasionally, for at least 8 but up to 24 hours on the stovetop. (Do not leave on stovetop unattended, simply cool and continue simmering the next day.) The longer you simmer it, the better your broth will be. Add more water if necessary to ensure bones and vegetables are fully submerged. Alternately, you can cook the broth in a slow cooker on low for the same amount of time.
• Remove the pot from the heat and let cool slightly. Strain broth using a fine-mesh sieve and discard bones and vegetables. Let continue to cool until barely warm, then refrigerate in smaller containers overnight. Remove solidified fat from the top of the chilled broth.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with cooking spray.
• Place beef bones, carrots, celery, onion, and garlic on the prepared baking sheet.
• Roast in the preheated oven until browned, about 45 minutes.
• Scrape roasted bones and vegetables into a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®). Add bay leaves, apple cider vinegar, sea salt, peppercorns, and boiling water. Close and lock the lid. Select Manual pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 120 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, 10 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Remove bones and vegetables and discard. Line a strainer with cheesecloth and set over a large bowl. Pour broth through strainer and discard solids.
• Allow broth to cool. Remove and discard fat layer.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil; spread beef bones out on prepared baking sheet.
• Roast bones in the preheated oven until browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Place carrots, celery, onion, garlic, peppercorns, and bay leaves in a slow cooker. Place roasted bones over vegetables; pour in enough cold water to cover bones. Add apple cider vinegar and kosher salt.
• Cook on Low for 8 hours. Pour broth through a fine-mesh strainer into a bowl and discard any strained solids.

Steps:

• Place pressure cooker over high heat. Oil and salt the oxtail and shank pieces then sear in batches. Add remaining ingredients and cover with water, being careful not to fill above the cookers "maximum fill" line. (If your pressure cooker does not have a water line, fill the pot 2/3 full). Bring to a boil and skim off any foam that gathers at the surface. Cover and lock lid. Once pressure builds up inside the cooker, reduce the heat so that you barely hear hissing from the pot. Cook for 50 minutes.
• Release pressure using your cookers release device (read that manual) or cool the cooker by running cold water over the lid for 5 minutes. Carefully opening the lid and strain squeezing the solids before feeding to the compost pile, or the dogs. Strain through a fine sieve or several layers of cheesecloth. Season and serve or use as a base for other soup recipes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
• Put the beef bones in a large, deep stockpot and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Lower to a simmer and cook for 20 minutes to remove any impurities. Drain the bones and rinse them under cold water (reserve the pot). Transfer the bones to a baking sheet in an even layer and season with 2 teaspoons salt.
• Put the allspice berries, peppercorns, star anise pods, carrots, celery, cinnamon sticks, garlic, onions and ginger on a separate baking sheet. Drizzle with the oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt. Place both baking sheets in the oven and bake until the vegetables are softened and golden brown and the beef bones are caramelized, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer the bones and vegetables back to the reserved stockpot. If there are any golden bits on either baking sheet, carefully pour 1/2 cup hot water onto them, gently scrape up with a wooden spoon and pour the water and bits into the pot. Add 1 tablespoon of the rice wine vinegar, then cover the bones and vegetables with cold water and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered slightly and occasionally skimming away the foam and any fat that rises to the top, until the broth is a deep brown and as much flavor and collagen as possible has been removed from the bones, 5 to 7 hours.
• Strain the broth into a large heatproof bowl or storage container. Compost the bones and vegetables. Stir in the soy sauce, remaining 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar and 1 teaspoon salt and let cool at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Refrigerate, covered, until chilled and all the fat has risen to the top and hardened. Use a spoon to remove the fat from the top and compost. .
• To serve, heat the bone broth until heated through and no longer gelatinous. Season to taste, if desired. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Freeze for up to 2 months.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees. Place meat and bones in a roasting pan or on a large rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle with olive oil, turning to coat, then brush all over with tomato paste. Roast until browned, 30 to 35 minutes. They don't need to cook all the way through but to just develop some color.
• Put roasted meat and bones in a 12-quart stockpot and add vinegar and enough cold water to cover by 3 inches (about 6 quarts). Bring to a boil, then reduce to a low simmer, uncovered, for 2 to 3 hours. While simmering, occasionally skim fat and foam from the top using a ladle.
• Add all the remaining ingredients. Continue to simmer, uncovered, for a minimum of 3 hours. If using knucklebones, simmer overnight, 9 to 15 hours, so the knucklebones have sufficient time to break down.
• Remove meat and bones with a slotted spoon or tongs; reserve meat for another use (such as soup). Pour broth through a fine-mesh strainer into a large heatproof bowl. Once broth has cooled, store in the refrigerator in an airtight container.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a roasting pan with cooking spray.
• Spread tomato paste onto beef bones and place in the prepared roasting pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bones begin to brown, about 30 minutes.
• Transfer bones to a slow cooker and pour in enough water to cover bones. Add onions, carrots, garlic, and bay leaves to broth mixture.
• Cook on Low for at least 24 hours.
• Strain broth through a fine-mesh strainer into a container and refrigerate.
