Google "how to make stock". If it has bones, it's stock, without bones, it's broth.

Mine is made of neck bones, marrow bones, and knucklebones. Or whatever I can get. I roast the neck bones until they're nicely browned, and meanwhile I soak the other bones in cold water with a little vinegar. Then add the roasted bones, a celery stalk, a few cut-up carrots, a few onions, and some garlic, and bring to a boil. Skim off the scum that comes up, if it does, and then add a sprig of thyme and some black pepper, and simmer for HOURS. At least 12. Check for scum every once in a while, and skim.

Then when it's done, strain it well, and put it in the fridge. When the fat rises to the top, take that off, and save it to use in other foods. (I use it to brown meat in, or to fry eggs.) I don't salt mine until I'm using it.

I mostly do poultry stock (I've done beef a few times but we like poultry better).

roast the bird, eat the meat, (if you don't do it right away, throw the carcass in the freezer til your ready). put the carcass, a little bit of frozen onion skins, celery and carrot trimmings (not a lot of any or it will taste too veggie-ish), a spash of apple cider vinegar, and some water to cover in a pot (chicken feet if you have them), simmer for 12 hours or so, and strain.
