- Place all bones (big and small) in a large pot on the stove
- Cover completely with water and add ¼ cup of apple cider vinegar
- Bring to a boil
- Remove the froth from the top of the water
- Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer for 24 hours (the house will smell like Thanksgiving for the whole day)
