I guess that any bones will do - I get mine grass fed and I would
personally avoid feed fed bones - I'm ex uk and concerned about BSE.
The broth is good for soups and stews but I'm just warming it and
drinking it straight - to me it tastes great. Breakfast was a mug of
broth, 3 oz of pemmican, handfull of raspberrys.
Cheers
Neil
