Ingredients
- 2-pound mixture of venison knuckle, marrow, and soup bones
- ½ pound venison knuckle bones
- ½ pound venison marrow bones
- 1 pound venison soup bones
- 2 celery ribs
- 2 large carrots
- 1 white onion
- 1 15 oz. can diced tomatoes
- 3 cloves of garlic
- 8-10 cups of water
- 3-4 bay leaves
- 3-4 sprigs of fresh thyme
- ½ tsp. salt
- ½ tsp. cracked black pepper
- 1 large zucchini
- 2 handfuls fresh baby spinach
- 1 sweet potato
Directions
Step 1
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
Step 2
Place the knuckle and marrow bones onto a baking sheet and roast for 25 minutes.
Step 3
While the bones are roasting, slice the celery and carrots, and chop the onion.
Step 4
Add all of the ingredients - except for the zucchini, spinach, and sweet potato, to an Instant Pot. Be sure not to fill past the max pressure line. For slow cooker directions, see the notes below.
Step 5
Place the lid onto the pot and secure it. Set to high pressure and cook for 3 hours. While the soup is cooking, chop the zucchini and sweet potato - leaving the skins on.
Step 6
Let the Instant Pot naturally release. Once ready, open the lid and add the chopped zucchini, sweet potato, and spinach. Stir, and place the lid back on and let the vegetables soften for about 10-15 minutes.
Step 7
Once ready, open the lid and strain out the bone fragments and fresh herbs.
Step 8
Serve immediately.
For a slow cooker, roast the bones, add all ingredients to a slow cooker and cook on low for 8-10 hours. Strain the bone fragments and fresh herbs, then serve immediately.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week or freeze for up to three months.
