What is bone broth for?
Bone broths have been staples of traditional diets around the world for centuries. What are the benefits of bone broth? Not only are they rich in flavor and nutrients, but they’re also easy to digest and can boost internal healing thanks to key components like gelatin, which research shows can help maintain gut health and integrity.
In addition
to gelatin and collagen, simmering the bones and ligaments of meat also releases beneficial amino acids such as proline, glycine, and glutamine. These amino acids are key to metabolic processes, including supporting bone mineral density, creating and repairing muscle tissue. Glycine, in particular, protects against muscle wasting.
In case you’re wondering, the benefits of beef bone broth and chicken bone broth are very similar, so you really can’t go wrong choosing either!
What is the difference between bone broth and broth? They are usually very similar or even exactly the same in terms of ingredients, but bone broths are usually cooked significantly longer than broths. The broth is cooked for an even shorter period of time than the broth. So if you have to choose between the two, opt for bone broth every time.
Are you wondering: Can I drink bone broth on a fast? You certainly can. In fact, I’m a big fan of periodically making a quick bone broth.
Beef Bone Broth Recipes
People sometimes don’t know the best way to consume bone broth on a daily basis. Do you only drink bone broth? You certainly can, but there are many ways to use bone broth. Whether you choose chicken bone broth or beef broth, the options are pretty endless.
But wait, what’s better: chicken bone broth or beef bone broth? That mostly comes down to personal taste preference. Choosing between the two can also be based on what goes best with a recipe.
Some recipes like Vietnamese pho or beef bone vegetable soup are clearly better with a beef bone broth. For other dishes such as baked stuffed chili casserole or slow cooking chicken gumbo, chicken bone broth is the perfect complement.

Information
If you use all the organic ingredients, you’ll be making a delicious organic beef bone broth recipe. It’s especially important to opt for organic bones to avoid factory farmed meats. If you’re short on time, you can always buy high-quality bone broth at your local health food store, or try a protein powder made from bone broth.
The exact nutritional information for beef bone broth will vary from batch to batch because it depends on the exact ingredients you choose to use, how long you cook the broth, how much skim fat from the top, etc.
In general, homemade beef broth is low in calories and fat, contains a remarkable amount of protein and zero grams of sugar and carbohydrates. The amount of sodium depends on how much sea salt you use.
Is this a beef bone marrow broth recipe? It definitely is! I recommend opting for beef bones with marrow, which are naturally rich in collagen. To maximize the nutrition and quality of beef bone broth, the best bones for bone broth come from organically raised and, in the case of beef, grass-fed.
How to Make
Beef
Bone Broth
Making beef bone broth is as easy as making my chicken bone broth recipe. All you have to do is combine all the ingredients in a slow cooker and let it simmer for at least 36 hours (that might require you to run three cycles on your slow cooker unless you have one that allows you to set it for 36 hours). This is really an effortless beef bone broth slow cooking recipe.
Otherwise, you can also cook on the stove in a large pot. (See below.)
Why so much longer than a chicken bone broth? It’s because the beneficial components of beef bones take longer to release.
Start placing the ingredients in a 10-quart capacity slow cooker, starting with the beef bones. Add the remaining vegetables and dry ingredients.
Add the water. For the stove version, bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer gently. For the slow cooker version, simply turn it on and set it to 12 hours (be prepared for two more cycles, so set your timer on your watch or at home).
For either version, skim fat that rises to the surface occasionally. Simmer for 36 to 48 hours.
Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Discard all solids. Strain the rest through a strainer.
After straining, let the broth cool to room temperature, cover and cool
.
Place in the refrigerator and use within a week. Otherwise, you can freeze your homemade beef bone broth for up to three months.
That’s all! Look, making homemade bone broth is not as difficult as you think!
