I used my large electric roaster and put in 3 whole chicken fryers. To this I added some large cut:
- carrots
- onions
- celery
- garlic
- salt, pepper, and thyme
I filled the roaster about halfway full of water and let this cook all day on medium/low.
When I was finished cooking it, I separated all the vegetables out—gave them to my chickens. I then took all the meat and pulled it off the carcass. I saved some drumsticks for dinner the next day as well. I ended up with a large 9×13 pan full of meat.
I put the meat in the food processor and pureed it, into little pieces and put them into a container to freeze. I ended up with 8 -1lb containers.
The broth, I strained and put into quart canning jars. I put them into the refrigerator to cool and then put them into the freezer for a later date. It was very rich broth, but I ended up with 4 quarts of it. I think that when I make a soup, I will add 1 jar per meal. That will give me 4 soup bases this month made with good, healthy bone broth.

I thank you for all of this encouragement. You probably could do a GREAT youtube channel:) Lots of wisdom and experience in how to do and not do things. I am thankful you are watching and think it is a good thing. I’m highly encouraged. Have a wonderful blessed day!
Hi Amy. I really admire how you manage to take care of your family. I have been watching your videos on youtube and it really inspired me to try harder to be a good homemaker. I love how you cook for your family. I really enjoy watching and you give me meal ideas. I have 3 children and most of the time, they are driving me crazy. I pray that I can manage my time and energy as good as you!
I am so glad to meet you and glad you enjoy watching. Being a homemaker is a wonderful noble task to do! I had to at one time pray for myself to be better as well, then I had to just do it. You are beginning…..right now watching videos and learning…I have just been doing this for a long time..Learn from my mistakes:) Enjoy your day.
