How to Make Homemade Beef Bone Broth (No Veggies Required)

When it comes to crafting a nutrient-dense beef bone broth, simplicity is key. You don’t need a long list of ingredients to create a flavorful, collagen-rich broth—just high-quality beef bones, water, and a little time. Perfect for sipping on its own or using in recipes, this no-veggie beef bone broth is a versatile kitchen staple.

Why Make Your Own Bone Broth?

Beef bone broth is packed with nutrients like collagen, amino acids, and minerals that support joint health, improve digestion, and promote glowing skin. While store-bought options can be convenient, making it yourself ensures you’re getting the freshest, purest broth possible.

What You’ll Need

• 2–3 pounds of Beef Bones (marrow bones, knuckles, or a mix of cuts)

• Enough water to fully cover the bones

• 1–2 teaspoons of Sea Salt (optional)

Pro Tip: For the best results, use high-quality, grass-fed beef bones like those available at www.thebeefbox.com.

How to Make Beef Bone Broth

1. Prepare the Bones:
   If desired, roast the bones in the oven at 400°F for 30–40 minutes to enhance their flavor. This step is optional but highly recommended for a richer taste.

2. Add to Pot:
   Place the bones in a large stockpot or slow cooker and cover them completely with water.

3. Simmer Slowly:

   • Bring the water to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to a low simmer.

   • Let the broth simmer for 12–24 hours, skimming off any foam or impurities that rise to the top.

4. Strain and Store:

   • Once the broth is done, strain it through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove the bones.

   • Pour the broth into jars and let it cool before refrigerating or freezing.

5. Enjoy:
   Use your homemade broth as a base for soups, stews, or even in recipes like Beef Bone Broth Hot Chocolate!

Tips for the Perfect Broth

• Acidity for Extraction: If you want to extract even more nutrients from the bones, add 1–2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to the pot before simmering.

• Gelatinous Broth: A good broth should become gelatinous when refrigerated. This is a sign of high collagen content.

• Storage: Refrigerate for up to 5 days or freeze in portions for longer shelf life.
