Just threw 2.5 pounds of beef bones into the crockpot with some ACV and salt
Didn't add any seasoning or vegetables yet. I'm going to do that in the final 2 hours of slow cooking.
Ill probably throw in a beef cube or two as well.
I'm about 12-16 hours out. Will report back.
For next time, should I let the bones sit in the water/ACV mix for awhile before I get it going? Would that help draw out nutrients better?
Why throw in a beef cube?
Like a bullion cube or some cubes of meat?

Just made some beef bone broth then used it to try to make a stew in my crock pot however its a lot more runny then i would like, anyone have tips on how i could make it thicker? I trie using flour but that didn't work.
you can put it on the stove and boil it. this is called a reduction. you are reducing the amount of water in it, and you are intensifying the flavor. however, you are not really going to change the texture or viscosity much.
an alternative is to add barley to the soup. the barley will soak up a lot of water. technically its a grain but its sort of like adding noodles to your soup.
also, the bone broth just makes broth. it should be runny. add meat and vegetables and barley/noodles to make it a soup.
