Time 13h40m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 pounds chicken necks and backs
1 large onion, skin on, sliced into 6 segments
2 carrots, cut into chunks
1 stalk celery, cut into chunks
2 cloves garlic, peeled
4 sprigs chopped fresh thyme
1 bay leaf
3 quarts cold water

Steps:

  • Combine chicken, onion, carrots, celery, garlic, thyme, and bay leaf in a large stockpot; pour water into pot. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, being careful not to let the mixture come to a boil. Once simmering, skim off any foam or impurities that accumulate on the surface of the water and reduce the heat to low.
  • Gently simmer the mixture on low for 12 hours, skimming off any foam as needed.
  • Remove stockpot from heat and let cool for 1 hour.
  • Pour stock through a fine strainer and transfer to food-safe containers.
