Homeade stock

Just wondering how long does the stock stay good far in the refrigerator? What are the pros and cons of maybe freezing it? Any help will be appreciated.

I freeze mine all the time. I usually make stock once or twice a year and make way more than I can use at that time.

I always make a lot of stock and freeze it. Can't really think of any cons.

Freeze it in measured amounts. I buy the disposable Tupperware in 24 or 32oz sizes for portioning. You can also freeze it in icecube trays if you want it in smaller amounts.
It'll be bad within a week in the fridge.

Too cheap to buy Tupperware. Of course now my wife freaks over plastic containers so now we've started buying Glass Jars to put leftovers in.

I have a set of glass pop-a-lock containers that I love. I don't love plastic Tupperware.

You're changing the climate and that is a thing your wife can't allow to happen.

Ten days in the fridge, frozen over two years.

I always save my Asian plastic to go containers as they make a perfect vessel to freeze stock in.
Another thing you can do is to pour your stock into ice cube trays, then after they freeze, transfer them into a large ziplock freezer bag, that way you have any amount you're going to need for any given recipe.

I'm glad to know you can freeze if. I've got my bones ready to start cooking in the morning

I freeze it all the time in plastic containers. I put plastic wrap over the top of the stock so there's no air. Keeps for a long time that way.

Roast your bones with your mirepoix veggies for about an hour then into a pot and cover with cool water. Doing this will get more of the marrow to eject from the bones, gets a nice color and flavor from the flesh remaining on the bones.
