I googled for how long would homemade stock would last in the fridge
and started reading this. What the heck, these people look familiar.

I should have come here first anyway. ;-)

Seems it's a direct mirror of everything that's posted here.

But as for stock........ I freeze mine :-)

Which reminds me, I have to take some out for the Sherherds Pie and the
casserole I'm going to make later today.

If you leave the fat layer on top and remove it just before using it, it
lasts longer.

7 days is my personal limit.

Stock always freezes well. Freezing it in an ice cube tray makes it
especially handy for making sauces and stuff.

It was already a week old and I was busy so I just put the gelatenous
mess in a freezer bag and put it in the freezer.
I'll curse getting out what I need later.

Hi Koko,

Next time pour it into disposable cups, seal first with plastic wrap
then with foil, then freeze. Mine's been sitting in the fridge
for...several days.... I froze ten pints yesterday.

Also froze the leftover fat from the turkey. Younger daughter knows
how to make gravy, and now all she needs to do is dig out some of the
fat, melt, add flour for a roux, then dump in a pint of frozen stock.
By the time the stock thaws in the skillet, it's gravy. Not as good
as the original stuff but reasonably tasty.

Best -- Terry

My mother would keep stock for perhaps up to a week, but she'd take it
out and bring it up to a simmer for a few minutes every other day or so.

Thanks for the information Goomba. I have it a frozen block now.
