Lamb Bone Broth

I had forgotten that I had three bags of lamb bones in the freezer from when we processed our last sheep in the spring. 

Bone broth is one of the easiest things to pressure can and it is so rich in flavor and nutrition. I actually save all the bones from meals and label what type they are. Those are thrown in the freezer for a day when I can create more broth. 

I like to simmer my broth for two days, but that doesn't always work out. One day of simmering is the minimum in order to draw out the nutrition from the bones. 

I did pull off all the fat from this batch and I will probably use it for cooking things like potatoes. I wonder how biscuits would taste with it, too. 

At the end of the process, the bones and veggies go to the chickens for a high protein meal.  They pick those bones clean as can be! (No, I do not give the bones to the dogs because they have been cooked. Raw bones are always best for dogs.)

Oh! And I am super happy to have figured out how to prevent the siphoning of liquid from the jars during processing.  I haven't lost liquid since. Just look at that headspace! Perfect!
