Ingredients

Turkey bones, scraps and neck
16 cups water
2 celery stalks - roughly chopped
2 carrots - peeled and roughly chopped
1 yellow onion - peeled and roughly chopped
1 fresh package poultry herb blend - or fresh rosemary, thyme, oregano and sage
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp ground black pepper

Instructions

Instant Pot Turkey Broth:

Add the turkey carcass, 2 chopped celery stalks, 2 chopped carrots, 1 chopped yellow onion, fresh poultry herb mix (rosemary, thyme, oregano and sage), salt and pepper to the instant pot.
Fill the pot with water to the max fill line.
Close the lid and turn the steam release valve to “seal”. Cook on low for 2½ hours.
When complete, let the pressure release naturally for 10-15 minutes then turn steam valve to “vent” position. Once all steam has released, open the lid.

Slow Cooker Turkey Broth:

Add the turkey carcass, 2 chopped celery stalks, 2 chopped carrots, 1 chopped yellow onion, fresh poultry herb mix (rosemary, thyme, oregano and sage), salt and pepper to the slow cooker pot. Fill with water to the max fill line.
Cover and let cook on high for 6-12 hours.

How To Strain The Broth:

Let the broth ingredients cool 1 for hour, then use a soup ladle to pour the liquid through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl.
Pour broth into glass jars and let them cool to room temperature. Once cooled, you can store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Broth can also be frozen. Just pour it into ice cube trays, freeze, then add the cubes to a large freezer bag.
Leftover bones and scraps can be discarded in the compost or garbage.

Recipe Notes:

How To Cook Broth On The Stove

Add ingredients to a large stockpot. Fill the pot ¾ full with water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat to let simmer on low for 6-9 hours.
Add more water through the process if necessary. Scoop off extra scum (the foamy stuff) from the top while it's cooking.
Let cool for 1 hour then follow the "how to strain" instructions above.
