Time 7h10m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

6 lbs beef bones
12 cups water
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
2 bay leaves

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 425°F.
  • In a large pan at least 1 inch deep - place your beef bones - bake for 3 hrs at 425°F Remove and cool. Ask your butcher, short bones work as well some meat left on the bone is fine some even like using the oxtail bone, any is really ok.
  • Place in a large stock pot and cover with 12 cups of water. Add salt, pepper, thyme and bay leaves - slow cook for 3 hours. Remove bones and herbs.
  • You should be left with a nice dark rich color beef stock - this can be sealed in jars or frozen for later use. The heartier the stock the better the soup.
