Instructions

  1. In an 8 QT slow cooker, cover the bottom with all the vegetable ends, the onion, and the garlic.
  2. Add the meaty bones and pour the vinegar over them—season with salt or vegetable broth seasoning and pepper. Then throw in the fresh sprigs.
  3. Cover everything with water but leave about 1-inch space between any liquid and the pot's rim or fill the pot to its maximum capacity.
  4. Throw in the vegetable bouillons (optional)
  5. Cook on low for 8 to a maximum of 24 hours.
  6. When ready, allow the broth to cool. Remove the big pieces of meat with a large slotted spoon, then strain the stock into a large bowl.
  7. Transfer the liquid to airtight containers and refrigerate up to 4 days or freeze up to 6 months.
  8. Immediately enjoy the meat bones or peel off the soft meat and enjoy in casseroles, omelets, etc.

Notes

  • After refrigeration, always skim off the fat congealed on top before reheating or using it as a soup or stew base.
