Making beef stock from trimmings question

[Scott Mark]

Best of luck to you. I tried extracting some flavor from ribeye trimmings with a minimal amount of water, and I got squat. And I’ve been making stock for years and years. I gave it plenty of hours, low simmer, but there was nothing there. If your dog likes the trimmings – that’s great. I had a dog that would go crazy on oak leaves if some salt had fallen on them.

I think there’s just no telling what’s going to attract attention. I’m happy for those who find something good from that “bark” on the outside. I’ve tried it myself – but got nowhere with it. Don’t have a dog. Tried making stock and got nowhere.If you get something good out of it — that’s a great thing. I didn’t.
