I fear I am among the minority here because I hate and am bad at cooking. Recipes are not my thing. So, is there a place I can I purchase good bone broth?

Bone broth is the easiest thing in the world to make. Just put the bones in a big pot, fill with water until they are covered, drop in a couple tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, put the lid on, turn to low and walk away. 24 hours later, strain the broth and there ya go. I've never seen a beef broth or stock for sale in the store (only "beef flavored broth," whatever that is). But an organic, free range chicken stock is probably the next best thing. Other people here may know of a better source, but homemade is really best here. |

It may not be as tasty, but you can get the key ingredients glycine & proline from gelatin. Check out http://www.greatlakesgelatin.com/ |

Skip it if you can't make it yourself. Bone broth makes a mean soup/stew, but it's not a magic elixir that grants you Captain Caveman powers. |

I just take all my leftover bones after meals and throw them in a ziplock bag in my freezer. Once it's full I toss them in the crockpot with water and a little vinegar and cook for at least 24 hours on low. Strain and add a lot of sea salt. It tastes great to me. No recipe or added seasoning needed. |

if you get hooked in with the local WAPF groups you may be able to find someone who is selling it out of their kitchen (technically illegal in most states). I was lucky enough to stumble onto someone like this when I was living with a bunch of roommates in LA and a long-cooked beef bone broth wasn't an option. If you're in LA and would like to get hooked up with this person, comment and I'll send you an email. |

Short answer, no. Learn to make it yourself! When my bone broth chills you can see the gelatin take shape in the jar. You'll never get that from a boxed or canned broth and that stuff is super good for you. |

if you're just feeling lazy, just get collagen powder and supplement your diet with that. There was a paper posted around here at some point that the mineral profile of bone broth wasn't amazing ... actually far from it. However, gelatin does have great benefits |

Maybe you could start a paleo meetup in your town and trade with people who do like to cook. You buy the bones, they cook. You chop the veggies or do the dishes, they cook. Like that. |

All of the store-bought broths I have seen are crap in terms of nutrition, most have MSG, stabilizers, preservatives, and aren't actually made with bones which would provide the gelatin and minerals. Instead they are made with stuff like "pink slime" (i.e. scraps from carcases treated with ammonia, irradiated, etc), which almost guarantees minimal nutrition content. As others noted, making bone broth is as hard as boiling water, anyone can do it. The only hassle factor is figuring out how and where to store it. You will need containers that can go in the freezer. I freeze mine into 2-inch cubes which is about 4.5 ounces, which is a good size for one serving or for including them in sauces. You could also just use small containers like the ones that are used for take-out chinese food (not that I eat that any more...) |

If your in it for the digestive properties (ie gelatin and glutamine) try making home made jelly from juice honey and gelatin powder. Thats real easy to make, and almost as good digestive wise. |
