For years here, it seemed I was the only one and stopped talking about it. I make a gallon or so every 3-4 weeks from left over poultry bones and bits of whatever veggie ends I have handy. This is strained, cooled, and frozen in roughly 1 cup baggies for use through the month. Much of it for the dogs and cat. (natural GSM) Plenty for us as well. |

I always > make mine plain. Yes and same here since most of it literally is for the doggies! veggie ends of types that don't bother dogs and that's about it. Later I fancy up any portion for us. I also make this for my neighbor across the street. BTW, I mis-spoke as i just checked the bags. I make about 1.5 gallons every 3-4 weeks. I get 23-26 1cup bags from each run. It's 16 cups per gallon right? That probably sounds a little odd but my neighbor makes a lot of whole roasted chicken and saves the carcass (picked over pretty well) for us in a 1 gallon plastic baggie until full. She normally has one pretty full (broken down) in 4 weeks just as I hit the same. She brings them over and I pass her however many bags of bone broth/stock she wants. It's normally 1 cup a week. My bigger crockpot is making a batch as the middle one is polishing up a batch of butter beans. |

Our cat is also older and she likes a little noshe of it also. We call it the 'nooner meal' as around noon we give them a treat. We move a frozen bag to defrost in the fridge every other day (or more if we need some for 2foot cooking) and split 1/2 cup or so per day to the pets. |

Incredibly useless to have a crockpot that shuts off in the middle of the night and leads to food spoilage possible issues. |

No doubt the new ones with time-limits are safety features. Anytime I use mine, even up to 24 hours cooking, I'm always at home. If I run to the store, I'll unplug it until I get back within 30 minutes, then plug it back in. It stays hot for that short time. I have never and would never start something cooking then go off to work for the day and leave it on. What if something happens to you like an accident and you don't get home for many days? Since new slow cookers have timeouts now, there probably have been problems with leaving one on. When I leave for work, the only electric thing left running is my refridgerator. |

It is >such a shame though to waste it. I freeze about 1 quart portions of concentrated stock. With it I make 5 1/2 - 6 quarts of soup every week or so. That's 2 main meals and a lunch for us. We don't eat much anymore. When I make soup (many different kinds) there are always a lot of vegetables in the soup and possibly a small bit of meat. i.e., chicken soup, beef barley soup, minestrone, etc. I feel that keeps us nutritionally sound.
