Slow Cooker Turkey Carcass Broth

Nothing better than homemade soup! And broth made in the slow cooker is a no brainer. Great base to start soup season with!

Ingredients:

1 turkey carcass (this one was a 22 pounder!)

1 onion, halved

2 celery stalks

2-3 garlic cloves

2 carrots

1 tbsp apple cider vineger

salt and pepper to taste

cold water to cover

a sprig or 2 of rosemary

Simply put everything in your slow cooker and pour in enough water just to cover it all. Set to high for 8 hours or low for 24 hours. Once done cool and remove vegetables and bones. Pick the meat off the bones... you'll be surprised at how much you'll find. Pour the broth into a colander lined with cheesecloth to remove small bones and bits. Use or freeze the broth as is or cut up the slow cooked veggies into the broth along with the salvaged turkey for a healthy soup. Maybe add a can of diced tomatoes and cooked rice if you like. Makes 10-12 servings.
