In my nutritious recipe, searing the meat on both sides in ghee, grass-fed butter or tallow, creates a crispy outer crust prior to adding in the bone broth. Simmering for just three hours produces a tender, very flavorful meat that can be used shredded in scrambled eggs, used in a soup, tacos or plain with a dollop of your favorite plain yogurt of choice.
