Spend $27 (60lbs of chicken drumsticks) and save over $100 on groceries

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this video, Im demonstrating how I spent $27 on 60 lbs of drumsticks and turned it into chicken stock that shelf stable and cooked chicken for the freezer for casseroles and chicken salad. Food prices are going up every where and we need to get away from ready to eat foods and cooking from scratch foods. Chicken stock is a key ingredient in cooking from scratch recipes.

    I have finally achieved a deep rich broth! Put my turkey in my roaster with onions, celery, carrots ( all scraps from the freezer) salt and pepper and let it do it's thing for 18 or so. . My goodness. I absolutely love my roaster! I now have 5 qrts and 6 pints of bone broth. So thankful 🙏🙏🙏♥️

    Hi LeAnn! Yes, that’s economically the best way, at least I think it is too. I just did 5 whole chickens that way and pressure canned the broth. I’ve never used a liner in my big Nesco roaster, wish I could tell you how to remedy your problem. I used to save my chicken fat and make suet cakes for the birds, they love it in the winter. I make suet cakes for my chickens when I had them, but used a different fat. Thank you again for being such an inspiration to so many. Have a blessed night!!

    The instructions on the back of my roaster liner box say to set the roaster below 350 degrees. Add 1 - 2 cups of water to the removable insert pan. Dress pan with liner so that the liner floats on top of water. Skirt liner over sides of roaster being careful not to tuck liner inside heat well. This usually works for me but sometimes I think the problem with broth making is the long length of time it takes to cook. Hope this helps. Also, the chicken fat is called schmaltz and is good for frying foods, Thanks for your video. Making broth and canning it is on my December to do list.

    Keep an eye out for them, I preordered mine though a Mennonite bulk store sale. They have enough orders to fill two tractor trailers worth every two weeks this time of year. Chicken always seems to be cheaper this time of year for some reason but not the last two years. It’s been two years since I have done this project.

I don't know if anyone else has said anything to you, but you are the second of my favs that I have been unsubbed from. Don't know why. I did hear someone else say that they have had some subbies that have been unsubbed as well. Guess I need to comment more often, but I usually watch on TV. Be blessed, friend 💖

    Yes, stock is made from bones, while broth is made mostly from meat or vegetables. Using bones in stock creates a thicker liquid. Stock contains more calories.

    Hi LeAnn! I have grown celery from the bottom of the stalk. It can be finicky. Set in a shallow container with just a little water around the very bottom. Change this water daily. Soon you should see little white roots , also should be regrouping out the top. You then can transfer to a pot of dirt. I just barely set the stalk into dirt. It will need sun or a light to grow. Or if it's warm, can be set out in the garden. I grew 2 this year in the garden, and just cut pieces off as needed. I also dug up an repotted to bring in for the winter. So far they are doing good!. This could be a real money saver over time. Your broth is beautiful!

    Hi LeAnn! I do my bulk chicken in a similar way. :) I can my chicken in pints instead of freezing. I use Better than Bouillon broth for my canned chicken and then can the chicken bone broth. I have never put turmeric in mine, I’ll add some my next batch. I do put ginger in my bone broth it’s good for helping with colds and flu. Just last week I opened the last jar when my husband and kids were sick. It’s time for me to do another batch. I can put 40 pound of quarters in my roaster. I gave up on liners. Thank you for another great video. ❤

    How I clean up my chicken fat is to put it into a saucepan with water (about 2x water to 1x fat) and bring it to a boil, turn down heat and simmer for 5 minutes. Cool to put in fridge overnight (or until fat is as solid as possible) and remove clean fat off top of water, dump water and impurities to the chickens. Great for cooking and baking! Blessings on your day Kiddo!🥰🌻🐛p.s. great video! Amazing stock!

    I think the roaster bags are finicky. You should put a tablespoon of flour inside the empty bag and shake it good. Then put it in the oven where the bag cannot touch the sides of the oven. Everytime I do this, the bags work great. You are an inspiration teaching everyone how to stretch the food budget. Keep up the great videos.

    I don't use the roaster bags, my roaster gets hot on the outside too and it is hard to wash afterwards. I just made turkey stock in my roaster using the turkey carcass and kitchen vegetable scraps. Onion peels make a beautiful broth. I got 10 quarts of beautiful stock....for practically nothing but the cost of electricity.
