Ingredients

  • 1 oxtail
  • 1 bay leaf
  • 1/2 tablespoon of salt
  • 1/2 tablespoon of Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon each of ground black pepper and sage
  • 1 onion sliced
  • 3 carrots quartered
  • 4 cloves of garlic peeled
  • 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  • Rinse oxtail
  • Add the oxtail to the dutch oven.
  • Add your veggies.
  • Fill with water, just enough to submerge everything.
  • Add your spices and ACV.
  • Bring the pot to a boil.
  • Once boiling, cover and reduce the heat to simmer.
  • Allow it to simmer for at least 3 hours, though the longer, the better. 
  • Strain the broth.

Notes

Allow the broth to cool completely before storing in airtight container in the fridge or freezer.
If you're looking to pack as many nutrients into your bone broth as possible, then simmering it for a longer period of time is definitely the way to go. This batch I simmered for 5 hours, but I have done it in as little as 3 hours with great results.
Never leave the pot unattended, and use oven mitts, as the pot will be hot.
