Instructions
Preheat your oven to 400°. Place fresh or frozen beef bones on a cookie sheet.
Bake bones for 45 minutes, flipping halfway through. Baking the bones prepares them to make a mineral- and collagen-rich broth. This is a critical step that cannot be skipped.
Once bones come out of the oven, it's time to boil them to make broth.
In the Instant Pot, add bones along with the rest of the ingredients.
Fill the inner pot to the max line with water.
Place the lid on the Instant Pot, ensuring the valve is set to SEAL, and cook on HIGH pressure for 2 hours. Do not "keep warm." Let the pressure release naturally after cooking, then open the Instant Pot.
Remove the inner pot and let it cool for about 30 minutes, then you can remove the bones and strain the broth through a mesh stainless-steel strainer.
Let the broth cool on the counter for a few hours before placing it in the refrigerator. Wait a few hours for the fat layer on top to solidify, then use a spoon to scoop it off.
Store bone broth in glass jars, never plastic, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days, or freeze in Souper Cubes for later use.
Notes
***You can also cook your bone broth in the Instant Pot on the "Slow Cooker" setting for 24 hours. I highly recommend purchasing the slow-cooker lid for the Instant Pot on Amazon. I have used mine many times.
