Several pounds bones enough to fill the size pot you re using See note above filtered water enough to fill the pot you re using n
3 4 teaspoons apple cider vinegar
use 1 teaspoon per 4 qt water
Pluck seasoning to taste
For a rich colored flavorful broth broil the bones in the oven until lightly browned For the bones you can mix and match animals or stick to one We collect bones over the month from our meals ie whole roasted chicken and store them in an airtight container in the freezer until we have enough to fill the stock pot
Place the bones and vinegar into the stock pot Cover with filtered water leaving about 2 inches of space from the top You ll want a large pot for this recipe I recommend at least a 12 qt stock pot
Bring to a boil and skim any foam off the top The foam is just any impurities coming out of the bones Sometimes it s there sometimes it isn t Due to the long simmer times between 12 48 hours you ll want access to a safe heat source I use a portable electric burner I do not recommend using a gas stovetop unattended
Reduce the heat on your stove to the lowest possible and gently simmer your broth for at least 12 hours up to 48 hours The rule of thumb is the bigger the bones the longer you need to simmer your broth Make sure not to cook the broth at too high a temperature It will denature some of the proteins Keep the pot covered to limit loss of water
Strain out the bones and either use immediately or store in a big glass jar in your fridge
Do not place lid on jar until broth is fully cooled
Use the broth when making grains or drink it like you would a cup of tea Add a pinch of Pluck to your sipping broth for added nutrients and flavor

PINEAPPLE SKIRT STEAK SKE ERS

2 pounds 100 grass fed and finished skirt steak substitute with flank or merlot cuts
4 cups fresh pineapple, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 2 Pluck seasoning
Juice of 3 oranges
Juice of 2 limes
Juice of 2 lemons
1 4 cups avocado oil
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 2 teaspoons black pepper
3 4 cloves of minced garlic
1 minced jalapeño pepper, with seeds
1 3 chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for garnish
Di ec ion
Prepare the marinade Combine marinade ingredients in a medium bowl and whisk until well combined Place meat in a shallow glass baking dish and pour marinade over steak, distributing evenly You may wish to use your fingers to rub the spices and oil into the steak to allow the flavor to infuse more directly into the meat
Cover tightly and place steak in the refrigerator for 2 hours, or up to 24 hours
Remove the steak and let rest for 3o minutes to come to room temperature
When ready to cook, set pellet smoker to 225 degrees to preheat with lid closed for 15 minutes
This recipe calls for a pellet smoker, but you may prepare your meat on a regular outdoor grill or over the stovetop in a cast iron skillet Bonus points if you smoke the pineapple!
Place skirt steak directly on grill plates Discard remaining marinade Close the lid and smoke until the steak reaches an internal temperature of 135 for medium rare, or to your desired temperature
Optional step here: increase heat to 400 degrees and sear both sides of the steak, roughly 2 minutes each side to seal in the flavor
6 Remove steak from grill and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing
7 While the steak rests, place cubed pineapple and Pluck seasoning in a medium bowl and toss until seasoning is evenly distributed over the fruit Pineapple naturally contains a compound called bromelain, a digestive enzyme that assists in the breakdown of proteins Pairing pineapple with steak synergistically promotes optimal digestion
8 Once steak is ready, slice into thin 1 inch rectangular pieces then arrange on skewers Alternate between steak and pineapple, about 4 5 pieces each until skewers are full
9 Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro and a squeeze of fresh lime Serve warm and enjoy!

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F
Using a Vitamix or blender, add marinade ingredients Blend the marinade into a smooth paste Set aside
Add avocado oil to a large Dutch Oven over medium high heat Season the chuck roast with Himalayan salt and pepper to taste
In two to three batches, sear the beef Brown beef on all sides, about 7 minutes per batch Set aside
Add the marinade to the Dutch Oven
Add the meat back to the pot along with any juices Add in the remaining stew ingredients and any bone broth needed to cover
Cook until the beef is tender, about 3 hours or so
Once beef is cooked, move it to a bowl
Shred with two forks and set aside
To make the tacos Dip a tortilla in the warm liquid from the Dutch oven Lay the tortilla on a griddle over medium heat and top with some shredded cheese and about 3 4 tbsp of beef
Fold in half to close
Repeat with 3 to 5 more tortillas as many as you can fit on the griddle
Cook the tacos on a griddle until crispy, about 45 seconds per side
Remove tacos and place on plate
Repeat with remaining tortillas and beef mixture until all are cooked Serve with braising liquid on the side for dipping as well as any desired garnishes
Don t be afraid to coat your tortillas with extra sauce as that s what is going to give it the flavor! Traditionally, these are served as goat tacos, however beef or pork make a great substitute If you re feeling adventurous, try using beef tongue
