Bone Broth
By: Jill O'Brien

Buffalo Bone Broth
Customers often inspire me to come up with recipes. A couple of weeks ago I was visiting with a women on the phone who was ill, and her doctor had recommended buffalo broth. He suggested boiling the bones for hours because what was inside those bones was what she needed.  The health benefits of consuming this magic elixir continue to be proven, including lowering blood sugar levels for those who live with diabetes. Wild Idea Buffalo has a strong following of customers who use the bone broth as preventive medicine. This recipe is a bit of a lengthy process, and will take you two days to make. But, it’s worth it, and it’s the only way to get the maximum benefits of all of the vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, and amino acids inside the bones. You won’t be sorry for the time invested, as the end result is not only healthy, but also super delicious!  For preparing, you will want a larger pot as you simmer at a higher heat. This will help keep liquids in the pot. You will also want a heavy lid to keep the steam from escaping. Enjoy the broth alone, or serve over rice with the shredded shank meat.
