Bone Broth

Bone broth is a nutrient-dense, comforting stock made from slowly simmered bones. Roasting the marrow bones first adds a deep, rich flavor. Follow these simple steps to make a delicious, gelatinous broth that you can enjoy on its own or use as a base for soups, stews, and sauces.

Ingredients:

  • Bone marrow bones (quantity as desired)
  • Salt (to taste)
  • Water (enough to cover the bones in the slow cooker)
  • Seasoning (optional, such as peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, or herbs)

Instructions

  1. Roast the Bones
    • Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C).
    • Place the marrow bones on a baking sheet and season them lightly with salt.
    • Roast in the oven for 30-45 minutes, or until the bones are golden brown. This step adds depth and richness to your broth.
  2. Transfer to Slow Cooker
    • Carefully remove the roasted bones from the oven.
    • Place them in a slow cooker or Crock-Pot.
  3. Add Water and Season
    • Pour enough water into the slow cooker to completely cover the bones.
    • Add additional salt or any seasonings you prefer (e.g., peppercorns, bay leaves, garlic, or dried herbs).
  4. Slow Cook
    • Set the slow cooker to low and let the bones simmer for 48-72 hours.
    • Check periodically to ensure the bones remain covered with water. Add more water as needed.
  5. Strain the Broth
    • Once the cooking time is complete, remove the bones from the slow cooker.
    • Strain the broth through a fine-mesh sieve or cheesecloth to remove any debris or small bone fragments.
  6. Store Your Bone Broth
    • Allow the broth to cool slightly before transferring it to airtight containers or jars.
    • Store in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. If you prefer to keep it longer, freeze it for up to 3 months.

Serving Suggestions & Tips:

  • Gelatinous Texture: Once refrigerated, your bone broth may become gelatinous, which is a sign it’s rich in collagen. It will liquefy again when warmed.
  • Use It Anywhere: Sip it as a warm beverage, or use it as a base for soups, stews, gravies, or sauces.

Enjoy the deep, savory flavor of this bone broth and all its nourishing benefits!

Air Fried Braised Oxtail

If you’re a fan of rich, tender, fall-off-the-bone meat with a crispy exterior, this Air Fried Braised Oxtail recipe is the perfect dish to try. Combining slow braising with the quick crisp of the air fryer, this method delivers deep, savory flavors with a satisfying texture. First, the oxtail is seared to lock in all the goodness, then braised low and slow in beef bone broth until it’s melt-in-your-mouth tender. Finally, a quick blast in the air fryer adds the perfect crispy finish. Drizzled with melted butter, this dish is both indulgent and packed with nourishment, a true carnivore delight!

Ingredients:

  • 1.5 lbs oxtail
  • 32 oz beef bone broth
  • Seasonings (as desired) – e.g., salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, etc.
  • Tallow (for searing)
  • Melted butter (for serving)

Instructions:

  1. Sear the Oxtail:
    In a Dutch oven, heat tallow over medium-high heat. Season the oxtail with your desired seasonings and sear on all sides until a deep golden-brown crust forms (about 2-3 minutes per side).
  2. Braise the Oxtail:
    After searing, add the beef bone broth to the Dutch oven, making sure the oxtail is mostly submerged. Bring to a simmer and cover the pot with the lid slightly cracked. Allow it to braise on low heat for 4-6 hours or until the oxtail is tender and falling off the bone.
  3. Air Fry for Crispiness:
    Once the oxtail is tender, remove it from the broth and let it cool slightly. Preheat your air fryer to 400°F (200°C). Place the oxtail in the air fryer basket and cook for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway through, until the exterior is crispy.
  4. Serve:
    Remove the oxtail from the air fryer and drizzle melted butter over the top before serving.

Enjoy your crispy, tender, and rich air-fried braised oxtail!
