Equipment

Pressure cooker or Instant Pot

Ingredients

3 pounds meaty beef bones (Or however much you have)
2 carrots (more or less)
1 large onion, root removed, skin on
1 bunch parsley or thyme optional
1 bay leave optional
2 tbsp tomato paste optional

Instructions

Combine all ingredients in an instant pot or pressure cooker. Cover with water.
Pressure cook for 2 to 3 hours. Allow to cool, then remove lid and strain.

Notes

Use whatever is on hand. I'd have put celery in there if I'd had it. I like celery with beef only. Long ago when I was a cook at Sans Souci in Cleveland, my chef told me to leave the skin on the onion I was using for stock (unless it were dirty). It adds flavor color and nutrients to the stock. Now I always leave the skin on.
