Very fatty meat broth can add flavor and fluid to a meal, but its high fat content makes it richer than lean broth. Skim the surface or use a smaller amount if you want a lighter dish.
Chill very fatty meat broth until the fat firms on top, then lift it off with a spoon. If you need it warm, skim the surface or pour it through a fat-separator jug.
Very fatty meat broth usually keeps for 3–4 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Cool it promptly after cooking, and discard it if it develops an off smell or unusual appearance.
Yes, very fatty meat broth freezes well. Cool it, portion it into airtight containers, and leave room for expansion. The fat may form a separate layer as it freezes; thaw a portion in the refrigerator before reheating.
Fat is less dense than the watery part of very fatty meat broth, so it rises to the surface as the broth rests. Chilling makes that layer firmer and easier to remove.
Use very fatty meat broth in soups, stews, beans, or grains when you want a deeper meat flavor. Skim some fat first, or reduce the other added oil in the recipe so the finished dish is not greasy.
Dilute very fatty meat broth with water or a leaner broth when its flavor or texture is too rich. Add liquid gradually and taste as you go, since dilution also reduces the broth’s saltiness and intensity.
A jelly-like texture usually comes from gelatin released by connective tissue and bones, not from the fat itself. It should loosen back into liquid when heated; the fat may remain as a separate layer on top.
It is safer to reheat only the portion of very fatty meat broth you plan to use. Repeated cooling and reheating gives bacteria more opportunity to grow, so return unused broth to the refrigerator promptly.
Yes, very fatty meat broth can be sipped on its own, although the rich texture may feel heavy. Skim the fat or dilute it with hot water first, then season it to taste.

Very fatty meat broth is a rich cooking liquid made by simmering meat, sometimes with bones, in water and keeping much of the fat in the broth. It is used in home cooking around the world, from soups and stews to grains cooked in stock; some people also drink it hot on its own.
It tastes deeply savoury and feels full-bodied, with a distinct richness from the fat. Its nutritional profile is notably fat-forward: a 100 g serving has 10 g of fat and 4.5 g of protein. Use it to add depth to a simple soup or stew, or chill it and lift off some of the solidified fat for a lighter result.
Low
How many vitamins, minerals and how much fiber this food carries per calorie. A high score means a lot of nutrition for few calories.
Medium
An EatBetter score computed from fiber, protein and calorie density. A high score means staying full longer on the same calories.
Both scores are calculated per 100 g and do not change with the selected portion. The satiety score is EatBetter's own calculation, not a clinical measure.
