  • Total Time: 13 hours 40 minutes
  • Yield: 8 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6 lbs soup bones (knuckles, femurs, oxtails)
  • 3 large carrots (roughly chopped)
  • 3 stalks celery (roughly chopped)
  • 1 large yellow onion (peeled & quartered)
  • 1 head garlic (sliced horizontally)
  • 3 ounces tomato paste
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 5 bay leaves
  • 1 cup red wine
  • 2 tablespoon dried parsley
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon peppercorn
  • 2 tablespoon sea salt
  • 3 quarts fresh water
  • 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
  2. Arrange the defrosted bones in a deep roasting pan, and scatter the chopped carrots, celery, quartered onions, and sliced garlic around them.
  3. Brush the bones with tomato paste, then drizzle olive oil over the entire mixture.
  4. Roast in the oven for 40 minutes, flipping the bones halfway through the cooking time.
  5. Transfer the roasted bones and vegetables to a large crockpot.
  6. Deglaze the roasting pan with red wine, scraping up any browned bits, and pour this along with pan juices into the crockpot.
  7. Add the remaining herbs, seasonings, a splash of apple cider vinegar (if using), and fresh water to the crockpot.
  8. Bring the dish to a boil on high, then reduce heat, cover, and let it simmer on low for 12 hours, skimming any foam that surfaces.
  9. After cooking, use a slotted spoon or tongs to remove bones and vegetables from the crockpot, then strain the broth into a clean pot.
  10. Refrigerate the broth until the fat solidifies, then scrape off the fat to discard or save for later use.
