I bought a pork shoulder blade roast for $12. I got three quarts of meat out of it and about 3 C of yummy slow cooked shreds that I simmered with rice- making two meals for the three of us.

Between the two multicookers on the right, I managed to fit in all the bones. Then I added as much water as I dared. They slow cooked for almost 24 hours, and now the first 5 quarts are in the pressure canner. I added more water to the bones and kept them cooking.

Phew! If I keep to this method I can see myself canning turkey broth for weeks on end! I wonder how many times I can remove broth and add water before the broth begins to get weak. A lot of times I think, because each one of those bags of turkey bones I had could have made a huge pot of broth by itself. I wouldn’t be surprised if I get over 60 quarts in the end. I better go count my empty jars.

bury those bones in the garden and i bet they crumble to nothing within a few years. plants will still love what is left of them. :)
