Ingredients

• 4 pounds beef bones
• 3 medium, chopped carrots
• 3 chopped celery stalks
• 1 large, quartered onion
• 4 whole garlic cloves
• 2 whole bay leaves
• 1 tablespoon whole black peppercorns
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 1 teaspoon sea salt
• 16 cups filtered water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).

Step 2

Place the beef bones on a large baking sheet or in a roasting pan.

Step 3

Roast the bones for 30 minutes to develop flavor, turning halfway through to ensure even browning.

Step 4

Transfer the roasted bones to a large stockpot. Add chopped carrots, celery, quartered onion, garlic, bay leaves, and peppercorns.

Step 5

Pour in apple cider vinegar and sea salt, then cover with filtered water until the bones and vegetables are fully submerged.

Step 6

Bring the pot to a rolling boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and gently simmer.

Step 7

Allow the broth to simmer uncovered for 24 hours, occasionally skimming off any foam or fat that rises to the surface.

Step 8

After 24 hours, remove the stockpot from heat and let cool slightly.

Step 9

Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth into a large bowl or another pot, discarding solids.

Step 10

If desired, adjust seasoning, adding more salt to taste, remembering Whole30 guidelines to keep it minimal and natural.

Step 11

Once the broth is cooled, transfer to airtight containers and store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 6 months.

Step 12

Enjoy the bone broth by itself, as a sipping beverage, or use it as a flavorful base for soups and stews.
