Yum, Kristina!!  But if I do it in the crockpot/slowcooker, would you just soak the bones in there for the hour?  (Before turning it on, of course..)  So as not to waste the acidic medium and the nutrients I assume would be absorbed into the water a bit during that time?  You guys are making me hungry and my belly is full from dinner, lol.  
 
And Neil, yes, I agree about the grass fed.  I'm not that paranoid about the BSE, it's just the other feedlot crap that skeers me!  Sometimes I have to buy the crappy stuff if I'm in a hurry, but most times I get the grassfed when my meatlocker is still open for me to purchase there!
 
Thanks, you guys!!
Love,
Bren




Bren,

It's good to let the bones sit in cold water for about an hour with the
acidic medium (ACV or fresh lemon juice). Then bring to a boil, skim off any
foam, turn down and let it simmer with lid on for at least 24 hours. Once it
cools and you put it in the fridge, it should be nice and gelatinous. Beef
and pork make the most gelatinous broth when I have made them. Chicken and
turkey are good, too. I think there is an actual recipe on
www.healingnaturallybybee.com. Just do a search on the search box top right..

Kristina

Wow, I didn't expect such a speedy reply!!  Thanks, Neil!!  And hmm, I'm
thinking that this way of absoring extra calcium would be preferable to the
questionable supplements you all were talking about!!  I, too, take the D3,
and have been wondering whether I needed to also supp with the calcium. 
Yum, I'd rather use the broth!! 
 
I rawfeed my dogs, and just bought them some beef marrow bones last
week...now I'm starting to think I might just steal some of their dogfood,
hehehe.

Love,
Bren
