{"product_id":"beef-femur-bone-ends-copy","title":"Beef Knuckle Bones","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe knuckle is the stifle joint — where the femur meets the tibia, one of the largest and most collagen-dense joints on the animal. Serious broth makers know it the way serious bakers know leaf lard: not the most obvious choice, but the one that produces a result nothing else quite matches.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eWhat the knuckle contributes to a long simmer is structural. The cartilage and joint surfaces dissolve slowly into the surrounding liquid, releasing an extraordinary quantity of gelatin that gives a finished broth its body, its gloss, and the lip-coating quality that separates a great stock from a thin one. Where marrow bones add richness and fat, the knuckle adds architecture. A broth built around knuckle bones sets firmly when chilled — not a loose jiggle, but a solid gel that melts back into something luxurious when reheated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eSplit through the joint with the cartilage surfaces left intact, these go straight into the pot. Roast them first at 400°F for 30 to 45 minutes for a darker, more complex result. Cover with cold water, add aromatics, and simmer low and slow for 8 to 24 hours. Add a canoe-cut marrow bone alongside for richness and you have built a broth worth bottling.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEach pack contains one split knuckle, 3.00 to 4.49 lbs.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eOur femur bone ends are the natural companion in the same pot — cartilage-rich from a different joint, and together they produce more than either delivers alone. Our canoe-cut marrow bones add the richness and depth that the knuckle cannot. And our beef soup bones cover a mixed selection for everyday broth making.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51820188991786,"sku":null,"price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0869\/1148\/4202\/files\/PhotoComingSoon_309d591d-a32c-43a5-80a4-135abab74960.jpg?v=1774800610","url":"https:\/\/wishbonefarms.com\/products\/beef-femur-bone-ends-copy","provider":"Wishbone Heritage Farms","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
