Just fill your slow cooker with carcass/necks/feet (whatever you use), add a quartered onion, two coursely chopped carrots, and 3 coursely chopped celery stalks.<br/><br/>Simmer on "low" for 12-24 hours for best flavor. Any longer and the stock will taste burned, I think.<br/><br/>Crock pots are great because they don't lose any (or much) water. I routinely have a crock of stock going each week, and use it throughout the week for various soup and sauce bases! Icon Girl:

I hope you feel better soon!!<br/><br/>I need help making chicken broth (pitiful, I know): do I keep adding water so the carcass is always covered? How long do I simmer -- will there be anything left? I have a 6-quart pot, do I need a "stock pot"?
