This savory beef bone broth is a simple recipe that is the perfect remedy for a winter cold or just as a light pick-me-up!

Winter is in the air and so are all those nasty germs and viruses. Nothing cures the the common cold better than a steaming cup of bone broth. Yep, you heard me right. Beef bone broth is gaining a lot of popularity lately for its many nutritional benefits including immune support.

This broth is so simple to make and uses just a few simple ingredients. I like to make a big batch in the crockpot and store it in mason jars in my fridge. Because it is so light, yet so savory I like to serve it in a coffee cup as a sort of winter aperitif.

You’ll notice that this recipe does require a long simmer time, so for impromptu entertaining or parties I’ve found that Kettle & Fire has a fabulous beef bone broth. I like that they have shelf-stable containers and they use grass-fed beef and organic ingredients, which really is the key to all of the bone broth’s nutritional benefits.




So, whether you just want a steaming cup to cure your winter cold or you have a houseful of guests, beef bone broth is a light and savory snack, aperitif or tapas.

Steaming Beef Bone Broth How To Make
Ingredients
- 3-4 lbs of mixed beef bones ((oxtail, knuckles, neck bones and/or short ribs))
- 2 medium carrots ((coarsely chopped))
- 3 celery stalks ((coarsely chopped))
- 2 medium onions ((coarsely chopped))
- 1 tablespoon of olive oil
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 1 bay leaf
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400 F.
- Place the beef bones in a single layer on a sheet or roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil to evenly coat.
- Roast the beef bones for 30 minutes. Flip each bone over and roast for an additional 30 minutes.
- Put the roasted bones, chopped vegetables, bay leaf and cider vinegar in a large crock pot or soup pot.
- Cover completely with water and bring to a high simmer.
- After it has reached a high simmer, reduce the heat to low and let simmer for 12-24 hours.
- Be sure to add water as needed to keep all the ingredients submerged throughout simmering.
- Once the broth has reached a dark rich brown color, remove from heat.
- Discard the bones, vegetables and bay leaf and strain through a cheesecloth.
- Cool to room temperature and pour into jars and let them cool in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
- To serve, skim the top layer of fat off the broth and heat to the desired temperature.
