If internally you’re saying, “You really want me to make turkey stock after I’ve already spent hours cooking a glorious feast?” let me tell you my secret: While I’m prepping for Thanksgiving, I prep for the stock as well.

Seasoning Turkey Stock

Because the turkey has been seasoned before roasting, season the stock after it has cooked. A few stems of herbs, such as parsley or thyme, are nice additions to the stock while cooking, as are peppercorns, but these are purely optional.

Recipe Notes

Storage: Turkey stock can stored in the refrigerator for up to 1 week or frozen for up to 3 months.

What You'll Need

A basic turkey stock is made with turkey bones, vegetables, and fresh herbs. Here's exactly what you need to make your own:

Step 1

In a three-gallon stockpot, combine all ingredients and fill with enough cold water to cover all ingredients (about six quarts). If you don't have a large stockpot, use two smaller pots and divide the ingredients in half.

Step 2

Bring the stock to a rapid simmer over high (do not boil); reduce heat until bubbles barely break the surface. Simmer until flavorful, about two hours, skimming stock with a ladle every 30 minutes to remove the fat. Keep the stock at a bare simmer; a hard boil would evaporate too much liquid and make the stock cloudy.

Step 3

Strain stock through a fine-mesh sieve. Discard vegetables. Remove meat from bones and save for another use; discard bones. Let stock cool completely before refrigerating. (To store, refrigerate for up to one week, or freeze for up to six months.)

How to use Turkey Bone Broth

Homemade Turkey stock is so versatile! You can use it in literally any recipe that calls for chicken broth. If you have leftover turkey from Thanksgiving, you can usually substitute it in place of the chicken called for in the recipe. Turkey and chicken are very similar.

Turkey Stock Recipe (Made from the Bones)

Learn how easy it is to make Turkey Stock from the bones of your Thanksgiving turkey! All you need is a picked over turkey carcass and some vegetables and herbs that you probably already have on hand from cooking your turkey. You are going to love using this flavorful turkey stock in your next soup!

Instructions

Place your turkey carcass into a very large stock pot (at least 6-quart capacity.) Add in your turkey neck, giblets, any skin, and leftover turkey drippings, if you have them. It's okay if you don't, you will still get a great turkey stock from just the carcass.

Directions

Combine turkey carcass, onions, carrots, celery, green bell pepper, garlic, chicken bouillon cubes, peppercorns, and bay leaves in a stockpot; pour in enough water to cover. Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until flavors blend, about 1 hour. Remove stockpot from heat and let sit for 15 minutes.

Cook's Notes

I keep ends of root veggies, tops of the peppers, and use them for the meat stock when I make soup from the Sunday roast. Leaving the skin on the onion will darken the stock and add more taste. I use roasted peppers and whole roasted garlic.

Step 2

If using turkey wings, halve at joints with a cleaver or large knife, then crack wing bones in several places with back of cleaver or knife. (Do not crack bones if using other parts.) Pat turkey dry. Roast turkey parts, skin sides down, in dry roasting pan, turning once, until browned well, about 1 hour.

Step 3

Add onions, celery, and carrots to fat in pan and roast, stirring halfway through roasting, until golden, 25 to 30 minutes. Add vegetables to turkey in stockpot.

Step 4

Straddle roasting pan across 2 burners, then add 2 cups water and deglaze by boiling, stirring and scraping up brown bits, 1 minute. Add deglazing liquid to turkey and vegetables in stockpot, then add remaining 3 1/2 quarts water along with remaining ingredients and 1 teaspoon salt.

Step 5

Strain stock through a large fine-mesh sieve into a large bowl, discarding solids. (You will have about 10 cups stock.) If using immediately, let stand until fat rises to top, 1 to 2 minutes, then skim off and discard fat. If not, chill, uncovered, until cool, then covered, before skimming fat (it will be easier to remove when cool or cold).

Yep

I also use it for stuffing and anywhere else I may need a drizzle of stock or broth throughout the cooking process. If you ever wonder why certain Thanksgiving meals taste so darn good… this is probably the reason.

Prep is key!

Back in the day, I used to only brown the neck and make stock. That was good, but this is even better. It does require you to buy one more thing (turkey wings!) but I promise that it is worth it.
