These days I'd rather not spend all day waiting/tending on a stock in prep for a bigger dish in the evening.
Any recommendations for a pre-made store stock? Looking for a true bone stock and not the normal broths/bouillon mixtures.
Does a product exist that can nearly rival a home made stock?

I like the Costco, but if you have a pressure cooker, or an Insta-Pot, you can make make a rich stock in an hour. You can then cut it with water to stretch it. Start saving your carrot tops, celery tops, and onion skins. Keep them in a gallon ziploc in the freezer for a day when you have an hour to kill.

What's wrong with the large jars of BtB Costco sells?

Well better than bouillon is just about the best store bought you can buy. I always have a jar of chicken and beef in my fridge.

If you want a boxed one, I found kitchen basics to be my favorite.

We use the leftover bones (cut up with hedge trimmer, skins, and add herbs onion, etc to make stocks in our pressure cooker. We make chicken, beef, pork, and turkey stocks several quarts at a time and freeze in quart bags several times a year. We typically have 5 to 10 quarts in the freezer to choose from. No salt in our stocks. We will buy a 8 or 10 lb smoked ham, have the butcher slice into 5/8" slices, freeze the meat in 1 lb bags, and use the bones for a stock.

I don't like the salt in store bought stocks.
