Step by Step Instructions
  1. We make homemade soup stock from our meats because the flavor is amazing and it's healthier than store bought broth. If you need advice on how to make stock, contact us.
  2. Wash, clean, and slice beets, cutting away any bad spots.
  3. Place beets in oven dish with a few tbs of olive oil or coconut oil. Roast these at 400 until soft.
  4. While roasting the beets, place chicken or beef stock in pot on stove and warm.
  5. When the beets are finished roasting, add them to the stock. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  6. Add minced garlic and chopped onion to the stock. It is optional to saute them first.
  7. Bring to a boil and cook 10 minutes more.
