- 1 teaspoon black peppercorns

Prepare the Vegetables
Chop onions, carrots, and celery into medium pieces. Crush the garlic cloves slightly. These vegetables will slowly release flavor into the broth. Fresh vegetables make your Homemade beef broth recipe taste more natural and healthy.
Combine Ingredients in Pot
Place roasted bones in a large stockpot. Add chopped vegetables, garlic, bay leaves, peppercorns, salt, and vinegar. Pour in cold water until everything is fully covered. The vinegar helps extract nutrients from bones.
Strain the Broth
After four hours, turn off the heat. Carefully strain the broth using a sieve into a large bowl. Remove bones and vegetables. You are left with a golden, flavorful liquid full of nutrients and deep taste.
