Cluck cluck

Since we did beer butt chickens and had the carcasses left it was time to make chicken stock! Good thing too since I used up ours making dumplings and chicken pot pie this week. And just a side note- if you smoke the chickens skip making stock with those ones. It will be bit smokey flavored stock if you do use them. Not that I've done that or anything ;)

I use Alton Brown's recipe: Chicken Stock. We love Alton :) really the only thing I changed off the recipe was I didn't use a leek because I may have forgotten to buy one...whoops. And we put cheese cloth over a mesh colander to strain it since we don't have a fine strainer.

Cooling stock (ignore the disgusting stove top, it didn't get cleaned up yet):
