Beef stock is made by simmering beef bones in a liquid, like water. This stock is often used as a base for soups and sauces.

This differs from beef broth, which is made by simmering meat rather than bone in liquid. Stock is typically thicker than broth due to the release of gelatin while simmering.


Beef stock is often found in recipes that also contain oranges, lard, Gruyere cheese, sherry, whole wheat bread and cornmeal
