Ingredients
- ¼ cup olive oil
- 8-10 pounds of beef bones
- 4 roughly chopped medium-size yellow onions
- 8 roughly chopped celery stalks
- 8 roughly chopped medium size carrots
- 10 garlic cloves
- 2 cups red wine
- ¼ cup tomato paste
- 15 sprigs fresh thyme
- 20 black peppercorns
- 2 bay leaves
- 1 bunch Italian flat-leaf parsley
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 425°.
- Add the bones to a roasting pan and coat in olive oil. Roast in the oven at 425° for 1 hour or until browned.
- Remove the bones and transfer them to a large stockpot and set aside. Drain off all but 3-4 tablespoons of rendered meat fat in the pan and place the roasting pan on a burner over low heat.
- Add in the onions, celery, carrots, and garlic, and roast in the pan for 10-15 minutes or until lightly browned.
- Deglaze with 1 cup of red wine and cook until it reduced by ¾.
- Next, mix in the tomato paste and cook over low heat for 15 minutes until the tomato paste resembles a rust color.
- Transfer the vegetables to the stockpot with the roasted bones.
- Add the pan back on the burner and deglaze with the remaining 1 cup of wine and cook for a few minutes to remove any of the leftover bits of fond on the bottom of the pan. Pour it also into the stockpot.
- Fill the stockpot up with cold water until it covers the bones by about 6 inches along with the thyme, peppercorns, bay leaves, and parsley.
- Simmer over low heat for 8-10 hours while continually skimming off any impurities on top.
- Store.
Notes
- Chef Notes:
- Make-Ahead: You can make this recipe up to 3 days ahead of time but can also be used immediately.
- How to Store: Place covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. Freeze covered for up to 6 months. Thaw in the refrigerator for 1 day before reheating.
- How to Reheat: Add the desired amount to a saucepot and heat over low heat until hot.
- It can easily be made using all leftover ingredients. It’s important if you often fabricate beef to use in your cooking to freeze the leftover pieces of meat or bones.
- Any leftover bones at all should be frozen.
- Any vegetable peelings, or if they are starting to go bad, please put them in the freezer to make this beef stock as economical and delicious as possible.
- If you are using veal bones, cook for 6-8 hours.
- Do not boil the stock, as it will only make it cloudy.
