Slow Cooker Chicken Stock
One 4-5 lb whole chicken carcass (all the bones and skin you can get!)
3 medium carrots, broken into 4 pieces each
2 small onions, quatered
3 celery stalks, broken into 4 pieces each
Celery leaves from a whole bunch of celery
2 bay leaves
2 tablespoons garlic
6 stalks fresh rosemary
5 stalks fresh thyme
About 8 cups water, or enough to cover and fill slow cooker
Throw everything in the slow cooker (literally, from across the room). Let cook on low heat for at least 8 hours (mine was on for at least 12 hours), straining any visible fat. Remove all solids and strain stock. Keep refrigerated or frozen until ready to use.
The result is soo fragrant of rosemary, you're going to want to drink it.
I had to work early the next day, so my husband took the stock out of the slow cooker. I asked him to keep about 4 cups out so I could make a small batch of soup for us the next day. I got home that evening, opened the fridge, and saw this:
Of course. Hahahahhahaha. :)
