What types of bones should you get?
My absolute personal favorite bones are the grass-fed organic beef marrow bones from Sprouts. This is not a sponsored post! I just really love them.
Meat or no meat?
I personally like a mix. With beef bones, I like to buy the organic grass-fed beef marrow bones from Sprouts. If I want meat on the bones, then I will get a cut of Chamorro from a Mexican meat market.
For chicken, chicken legs work great! After, you can save the meat and shred it to make other dishes,. For instance, enchiladas, tacos dorados, or chicken salad.
