Method #1: SLOW – How to Make Chicken Broth in a Crockpot
You can read my full tutorial HERE.
Method #2: FAST – How to Make Chicken Broth in the InstantPot/Pressure Cooker
- Place your chicken bones in the bowl of the Instant Pot (I own the 6-quart Instant Pot
), add some veggies (I like onion, garlic, carrots, and celery), and a bit of salt and pepper (don’t go overboard!). - Add enough water to cover the chicken bones, but don’t fill past the “Max” line on the Instant Pot.
- Put the lid on the Instant Pot to the closed position, turn the valve to “sealing”, and place on the “Soup” setting for 120 minutes. Allow to vent naturally.
Voila! After 2-4 hours (depending on how full your Instant Pot
was) you’ve got beautiful, flavorful bone broth!
Method #3: INSTANT – Where to Buy Bone Broth
What I like about Kettle & Fire are the ingredients: simple and good. I had a couple of questions about the ingredient list that Kettle & Fire answered for me:
One of the ingredients listed is “Organic spices” – I was pretty sure there wasn’t anything untoward there, but I like to know EXACTLY what’s in a product before I recommend it to you guys. Turns out the organic spices are just organic pepper, bay leaves, thyme, parsley, and salt.
Also, “Chicken Broth” is listed as an ingredient. Turns out the chicken broth is made from chicken feet, which are rich in collagen. I was pretty stoked to find out that Kettle & Fire is made with chicken feet!
You can find Kettle & Fire bone broth on Amazon. They also make soups such as butternut squash, broccoli cheddar, and mushroom bisque. They’re great to have on hand for last-minute healthy meals.

Thank you for sharing this. I've always wanted to make my own bone broth but I'm just too busy. I'm drinking Au Bon Broth now and I'm liking it so far. It's delicious and organic too. It's been helping me with my sleeping problems.
