Who can sort out this conundrum for me? I just read something very similar to the above in the "JOY" cookbook; but Alton Brown's recipe says to simmer for 6-8 hours. So who is correct??
Two hours or eight hours???
I usually go about 4-5 hours or so for chicken bones with meat.
I have a recipe for chicken stock I took from egullet.com that calls for times more like your 8 hours. I've never done stock that long.
I dont think 2 hours is long enough but I know some do. My sister never goes more than two hours for chicken bones.
