homemade beef stock

I don't know about you, but we use a lot of beef broth or stock in our house. When cool weather hits we are always making soups, stews, and other comfort food. I recently made my own homemade beef stock and it is delicious! It was relatively simple and I love that I can freeze it and have it on hand for several months.

I used the recipe found here. You can buy beef soup bones at many grocery stores as well as local butcher shops. We got ours from a local farm where we purchased beef. They were going to throw the bones away, but of course I saved them so I could make beef stock. Making this stock filled my home with a delicious aroma!

    My husband makes chicken stock all the time and it is great! We've never tried beef stock though, although if we had some bones I'm sure he'd want to!

    I didn't find it in the original recipe, but you can use a crock pot for the 5 hours simmer time. If you need to reduce the liquid, leave the lid slightly ajar so steam can vent.
