Instructions
Add all ingredients to a crockpot (bones, scraps, fat, etc). Cover with water and cook on low for at least 12 hours (16-18 is best).
You may need to adjust the amount of water depending on the size of your crockpot. You can fill to the top of the crockpot!
Allow broth to cool slightly, and run through a fine mesh strainer into a large pot or container. (This will just be easier to do if it is not scalding hot).
You can strain the broth a second time if you'd like in case any pieces slipped through.
Store in airtight containers for up to 6 days, or put in the freezer until ready to use!

Notes
Can you make this bone broth in the instant pot?Yes, you can! I prefer to cook my bone broth in the slow cooker, but you can cook this in your instant pot for 120 minutes on high pressure. Depending on the size of your instant pot, you may need more or less water. Make sure you DO NOT fill above the max fill line! Leave about an inch and half before the max fill line.Storage:Store in airtight containers for up to 4 days, or put in the freezer until ready to use!
