About this cut

What it is and how to use it

Beef bones are sold for making broth and stock, for roasted marrow, and for pet treats. Marrow bones are cut from the leg, and meatier knuckle and neck bones add body to stock. Roasting the bones first gives broth a deeper flavor and color. They are very inexpensive and give a lot of value for soups and sauces.

Cook’s tipRoast at a high temperature first for flavor, then simmer in water for many hours. Skim the surface and strain before using.
