Pressure Canning Chicken Bone Broth

[@barbaraking3927]

I have just about left off all other recipe sites. You are amazing. You have taught me so much, and I have cooked all my life. I'll soon be 76. It just shows that we are never too old to learn. I got a dehydrator and plan to follow your wonderful videos. I thought I was thru canning, but with the world in such chaos, it would be wise to stock up, even if it's just for me. Thanks again!

You've got that right! Thanks for watching.

Homemade bone broth does not have all the preservatives, first of all, and you can make a low sodium version, too. You cannot find bone broth for $1.50 in my town... the cheapest organic bone broth is $2.49/ qt. Now, you might find canned chicken stock full of sodium and preservatives for $1.50, but it's not the same. I CANNOT wait to try this.

[@andreamccarthy8168]

Oh my goodness yes. I adore my homemade broth, light years better than store bought.

Costco chickens are raised on factory farms, from breeds genetically modified. Costco has resisted requests from their shareholders to publish quantitative data showing progress away from the overall use of antibiotics in their chickens. Costco has not released an analysis of their chicken products to support the survey’s results. I would personally purchase an organic chicken/beef shanks, etc. when making bone broth. But Rose's instructions are excellent. I love her videos. I would just swap out the bird for one not ladened with antibiotics and hopefully given better feed.

Thank you Pam for this video! I've never canned any kind of broth before and I bought 12 Rotisserie chickens on CLEARANCE one day I was at Walmart. I can't remember the last time I paid $3.42 for a chicken, let alone a COOKED chicken! I'm so excited to try this! I've been canning for years but there are soooo many foods I have never canned before. I want to have a stocked pantry like so many people with their own channel.

I'm new to canning and have only water bathed canned as of yet, but canning raw packed meat is on my list of firsts for pressure canning. Hope to work my way up to homemade bone broth soon. Yours looks yummy.

Fantastic tutorial! I put the strained out bits in the blender with enough water to make a slurry. Then it goes into ice cube trays in the freezer, and onto a freezer bag when solid. When I say "chick-scicle" my Beagle darts straight to the fridge in an absolute frenzy.

Place a strainer in the bowl as you remove the solids from the pot. That way, extra broth drains into the bowl, and then you can press the solids to extract whatever broth is left before discarding.

The broth that came from that pot was amazing. All of her bones & veggie trimmings went into that pot, including her garlic & onion skins. That was how we first colored eggs for Easter, out of that fourth pot. Beautiful colors from onion skins, beets, carrot tops etc.

Although I have been looking for canning videos over the past year, this is the first time that I found your channel. I loved the video, the instant pot made light work of matters, I will have to look and see if they have those in the UK. I am waiting for my pressure canners. I ordered one in July (not yet received), but saw another one available - so I bought that one as well. As you can imagine, I am so ready to start, but I don't think that I will have it for some weeks yet. Canning is not well known in the UK, pressure canner looks to be able to solve lots of my food storage issues, as well as a quick and convenient option on the shelves for tough days! The broth looked amazing, I have made some stocks, but never broth - and until now I have had to freeze the stock. Over the past year, I have realised the 'fragility' of freezing food as a method. Although my freezers are new and excellent, it is the threat of power loss that is the problem in a regular house. We are prepared for short term issues, but not prolonged. Pressure canning will also solve a problem that I have in having nowhere suitable to store root vegetables long term from the garden. Thank you for going to the effort of showing and teaching us these skills. (PS those kitchen tiles are stunning!)

[@RoseRedHomestead]

Thank you so much for your comments. I can feel you excitement about getting started! And I certainly agree about the fragility of freezing. I keep our freezers stocked, but also have enough jars to can the food if the grid goes down. So glad you found us!

I am so thankful for your videos! I just recently got the Nesco canner and have been working on canning up some chicken. I could not waste the bones etc so I went ahead and made bone broth. The booklet that came with the Nesco said one way to can, then after it gave some recipes to can. One was chicken broth. It didn't give the canning directions but instead it gave pressure cooking directions. I thought it was odd when I was doing it that it wasn't doing the canning method, and I left it in longer than they said (20 minutes then remove). I left it in the canner for about an hour after it was done, and got online and sent the company an email asking about the difference. I'm glad I went with my own thought, because the next morning I got an email saying they made a mistake and to use the canning directions. Well it still wasn't exactly clear how long I'd need to process the broth so I got on your channel here and looked up canning chicken broth. I remembered seeing the video before. Just like I expected, you had the answers I was looking for! I trust your guidance in canning etc. I just want to say thanks again for posting these wonderful videos!

We are sorry about the Nesco directions being incorrect. On the other hand, we are happy that we could help you by watching our video. Jim

[@janicemartin1580]

Excellent video, as always! The color of your broth is fabulous. I also add the vinegar to soften the bones and draw more nutrients out. In the past few years, I started adding the onion skins as well as some beets, with greens. The deeper color and addition to flavor is wonderful. Thanks for taking your time to make these videos. These are skills that we learned from childhood, but cooks nowadays do not have any of this knowledge. Your videos are so valuable.

Im new to pressure canning so still at the scaredy cat stage 😅. I love your videos Rose but have a question. I have the ball books and there are recipes in them for stocks and broths but noticed you just throw in what you have on hand without measuring. Ive been keeping rotisserie chicken carcasses in my freezer for the past couple of months and have also collected lots of vegie peels, onion skins etc, and other vegie scraps which Ive frozen. But now im confused as to what is deemed safe. I watch you confidently just put whatever ingredients you like in and I want to do the same lol. What are your thoughts on just winging a broth of stock recipe like this?

[@pinkpigletparker8703]

I had the same question as I was taught throw all your old veggies in stock. Well if you are canning and don't stick to onions, carrots and celery, maybe processing at soup time is better safe than sorry. For example I throw peppers in my stock. I don't have the answer, but that's how I'm going to do it to be safe.

[@beeceestory]

I love your channel and have learned so much from it. I was curious how the jars react to the drastic temperature changes from the canner to the outside air which may be a lot cooler at your altitude?

[@RoseRedHomestead]

I have never had a problem with jars breaking when I move them from the canner to the outside table in winter. It would be different if I plunged the hot jars into a sink of ice water! The jars would shatter for sure! However, the way heat exchange works is that the jars immediately "donate" some of their heat to the cool air around them making a warmish layer of air surrounding the jars. It is all about the science! Thanks for your question!

Much more affordable to make your own quality bone broth than to buy it in stores…great shortcut with the rotisserie chicken!

I’m making bone broth today. My hands got so cold from handling the refrigerated chicken that I needed to take a breather. So I checked your channel to see if you had anything to add. 👩‍🌾

That is so kind of you to think of our channel as hand warmer. Jim

Little tip, if I may - to make life easier, you can put all the solid ingrediencies into tall mesh Instant pot steamer, feel pot with water, and juts lift it all out with the steamer, straining at the same time, after cooking is done. Also chicken carcasses (just bones) can be purchased, seasoned with herbs and spices of your choosing and roasted in the oven with onions, carrots, celery like you would roast chicken and then used to make bone broth.

Thanks for the information. We appreciate that.

Thank you. Exactly the information I needed.

I had really hoped to see the process you used to actually make the beef bone broth. If you do it again in the future, it would be awesome to see your process for making it. Love your channel so far though! Wonderful content!

[@RoseRedHomestead]

You can actually use the same process for beef bone broth. However, that is a great idea for another video for us to make in the future. Thanks.

[@CarolinaGirlCreationZ]

@@RoseRedHomestead That will be awesome! Can't wait to see more videos on your channel. I have really enjoyed the ones I've seen so far.

[@featheredfriendshomestead]

Love all your videos very educational thank you for sharing your wonderful recipes. Can I keep the broth in the freezer until I have enough to can alot of jars?

Hi, I thought I would share how I use our stripped bare roast chicken (from Costco). I do this weekly since chicken gets eaten alot in our household. I save all the bones from other meals from this chicken, some of the fat , using all those gelatinous bits and throw it all in my instant pot covered in water. I pressure cook for 3 hours. I drain off the broth, save a quart in the frig for use.I freeze the remainder.The bones and bits left in my strainer i crush using a potato or similar masher (they are now completely soft) I portion those out into appx. 2- 3 Tablespoon containers and freeze it for a tasty addition to my dogs food. Hes loves it. There are no jagged bone bits to hurt him. Since I planned to use all the bone bits for the dog I do not add other things like onion that may harm the dog...just water to cook it. I can add seasoning to the broth we use.
