I'm experimenting with making some bone broths to both drink on the colder days as well as use leftover broth for cooking. I just made a pork bone broth with pork neck and tail, simmered on low in the crock pot for ~30 hours. In the last 8 hours I threw in carrots, celery, and onion. Tastes very good to sip on.

Was wondering if anyone else makes this stuff to drink on and what they use? I may try some chicken necks/feet next to mimic chicken noodle soup. Any suggestions of other items to throw in to add another layer of flavor?

I make my own, chicken, ham and beef stocks, but usually for cooking not drinking them alone.

I usually make them in a pressure cooker and find this gives them excellent body. I recently read a blog post on Serious Eats (Kenji Lopez-alt) where he compared stocks made stovetop vs pressure cooker vs crock pot. The best was from the pressure cooker and the crock pot was the worst method. He felt that the crock pot didn't achieve a high enough temp to break down the collagen that lends body to the broth.

I think a chicken broth made of wing tips and feet would be excellent, especially if made in a pressure cooker.

What benefits are you looking for in drinking these broths?

I did a stove top chicken stock with only chicken feet and mirepoix and it was the most delicious, gelatinous stock I've ever had. Got the feet from La Morenita on the cheap.

Reminds me of an article I read about a year ago on Kobe Bryant and bone broth.

King Louis used to start each day with a bowl of beef broth.

Little known fact.

Countless articles on how healthy a good bone broth is for you. Preventing sickness is the main benefit I see, as well as the collagen for skin/joint health.

30 hours? Is that necessary?

There are some that have been going for years.


30 hours is nothing.

Louis and his broth.

Dude loved broth. Can't blame him. It's good.

Bone broth shops

Latest thing. And I've made broth with chicken feet and I highly suggest it.

I've read anywhere from 12 hours to 48 hours. I did 30 hours on low; turned out wonderful.

Wife came home with a very sore throat after work. Gave her a cup and her throat pains and body aches are gone. Already worth it IMO to not have to hear the complaining this evening

Dinner was well-rehearsed and lasted for 45 minutes. Louis employed 498 people for each dinner. Just bringing one course to the table required a procession of fifteen Officers of the Household, along with guards for protection. Anyone seeing the procession was required to stop and bow to the food.


He would have loved the food board.

I mainly use beef knuckles. Add a bunch of carrot greens for the last hour.

Never heard of beef knuckles. Where does one find them?

I think it's just the name for knee and ankle bones,

I buy half a cow at a time from my local farmer. Really the way to go if you like meat AND bones.

I use oxtail. For chicken I use backs and feet. I don't have a pressure cooker, but I cook mine overnight in the oven after bringing to a simmer on the stovetop. Ruhlman's method.

Works great and the house smells awesome when I wake up.

I always include wings in my stock, cut up in 3 pieces, preferably roasted.

Ham shanks will make a dynamite ham brought great over rice if you can't wait.
