Had to make room in the freezer for the Brisket so it was also a stock making day. This was from the bones of two feeds of pork ribs plus vegetable trimmings.

Save your bones kids!

@ihorner Homemade stock is such a life changer in cooking. I still use stock cubes most of the time, but a veloute made from actual chicken stock is noticeably richer and creamier.

@gramantik Dang, I'd forgotten that I was planning to make some smaller cubes with an ice tray this batch. But you're absolutely right in that a good stock can absolutely transform certain dishes.

@ihorner Related story: once I had a neighbor who stored SO MANY BONES in his freezer but it wasn't for stock it was so he could strip the flesh off them cleanly when the flesh eating beetles came in.
