Tips:

  • Turkey stock is the obvious choice for the best gravy and for moistening your stuffing.
  • And post-Thanksgiving, turkey stock is perfect for soups, stews, braises— it’s as versatile as chicken stock for cooking and lends a delicious, wintery, roasted flavor to anything you are cooking!

Recipe:

Turkey Stock

Ingredients:

  • 1 turkey carcass from a 12-14 lbs. turkey
  • 1 onion, peeled and cut into quarters
  • 1 bunch fresh thyme
  • 2 gallons of water (or enough to cover by 2 inches)

Place all ingredients in a large stock pot and place over high heat. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Using a ladle or large spoon, skim off any fat, or weird looking protein ‘goo’ that floats to the top. Simmer gently for 4-6 hours. Ladle stock through a fine strainer or cheesecloth into a container and chill as fast as possible. If you can, place the container of stock into a larger container of ice water to accelerate the cooling process. Place the cooled stock into pint or quart sized jars and refrigerate or freeze.
