Bone Broth Beef Pho

There is no doubt that a bowl of steaming hot soup is one of the best meals you can wrap your hands around in the cold months. There’s something satisfying and savory about slurping noodles in a flavorful broth. Especially when made with homemade roasted beef bone broth!

As much as I love filling up on hearty bold, beefy stews and chilies, a simple bone broth with veggies is my ultimate go-to to take off the chill. And, for anyone who has enjoyed pho, a traditional Vietnamese soup, there is no arguing that it is the tricked-out adult version of everyone’s “red can” classic. Just to look at pho, you can’t begin to appreciate the subtle layers or flavor. But once you have tasted it, the mild blend of traditional flavors is one you won’t ever forget. It is that good.

If you have never enjoyed pho, it is a simple street food from Vietnam. Pho is as varied as the people who make it.  It can be loaded with all of the vegetables in your fridge, or as simple and clear as noodles and meat floating in a seasoned broth. I use beef for this recipe, but pork is also common.  The hot broth cooks the vegetables or thin slices of meat as you pile it in before enjoying it.

Traditional pho is served at any time during the day and is enjoyed all year long.  I personally love simmering my broths in the colder months and enjoying the layers of flavors then. You can even make the bone broth base in large batches. Just freeze it in smaller portions to reheat as needed for perfect soup-on-the-go.

Pho is the type of dish that makes us all want to run inside from a snow-filled afternoon and thaw out to.

I make my broth a day or two ahead of time to allow the flavors a long time to come together. This recipe is easily turned into a Whole30 recipe by omitting the rice noodles. Use zucchini noodles in pace for a delicious twist.

    I was googling Lemon grass bone broths and I came across your site here. I’m very impressed with your recipe. I like that you add the lemon grass and mushrooms to your Pho. I haven’t seen lemon grass in any of the Pho broths made in my Asian family/community here in SC. I love lemon grass and star anise. I believe the combination of the two helped me heal from bronchitis in a single week. Thanks for sharing your recipe. I look forward to making it for my family.
