Slow Cooker Turkey Bone Stock

Slow Cooker Turkey Bone Stock is the perfect use for your leftover roasted turkey bones from the holidays. Put them in the slow cooker, add a couple of vegetables & water. That’s it, you’ll have homemade turkey bone stock. Simple and savory flavor that is far superior to store bought broth, when made using the slow cooker. With some ingredients (not including filtered water) you can have delicious homemade stock ready for use as you prepare for your next food adventure. Follow this recipe and you should end up with 12-16 cups of authentic clear stock that will elevate the freshness of your next dish. 

If you want to make a truly home cooked dish leave the cans and cartons of broth on the shelf at the store. Start your next broth based meal with no artificial preservatives and less salt. When you consider the number of cups as compared to the cost of the fancy carton you end up saving dollars and having more broth. If you are using cubes, cans or cartons of broth; please give this a try and step up your homecoming game. Watch the video, read the instructions and you will never (under normal circumstances) plan to use factory made broth again. 

When you don’t have time to stew or simmer a whole chicken and don’t want to be in the kitchen for hours, this recipe is for you. You’ll get clear fresh stock with minimal effort in the most efficient and timely manor possible (need I say more?). You can refrigerate the stock for up to a week or freeze up to 3 months.
