It's easy to feel intimated by marrow bones if you've never cooked them! But they can't be easier to make. All you have to do is roast them and add any salt or spices you'd like.
Don't be worries about the flavor, either. It's nothing like organ meats. The best way to describe it would be rich, flavorful, and creamy. Many people like the taste of bone marrow better than butter. You are going to love it!
Frequently Asked Questions
How should I eat bone marrow? Do I eat it plain or pair it with something?
I'd recommend using a small spoon to scoop out the bone marrow from the bone. You can eat it plain or add it with any type of meat (or eggs). I really enjoy roasted bone marrow paired with steak, eggs, or chuck roast. It's hard to go wrong with bone marrow—it tastes good with just about everything.
How do I know when my bone marrow is done?
The amount of time needed to cook will depend on the size of the marrow bone and whether or not you're roasting it from frozen. When the marrow starts to turn a golden color, that's a good time to take it out. Personally I love a more "medium rare" bone marrow, where the marrow on the inside is still a bit pink and it's more solidified.
The longer you roast it, the more the fat will melt into liquid. Do some experimenting and you'll quickly figure out how you like it best!
Why does my marrow bone look different than the picture above?
Marrow bones comes in different shapes and sizes. The "canoe cut" is when they cut the bone horizontally. This type of marrow bone is easiest to eat the marrow out of. Other marrow bones might be round and short or round and long.
Can I eat bone marrow raw?
Personally I feel comfortable eating bone marrow raw if it comes from a trusted farm. I've done it on many occassions and enjoy the taste. Typically I prefer more of a "medium-rare" bone marrow where the marrow hasn't all melted into liquid fat but is roasted on the edges.
Where can I find bone marrow?
Many grocery stores will carry bone marrow. If you're looking for higher quality bone marrow from grass-finished cows, I'd recommend reaching out to your local farmer. Just ask for "marrow bones". If you aren't able to find a good local source, these are some regenerative great farms that will ship their meats (or marrow bones) right to your doorstep.

Can I add spices or herbs to the bone marrow?
Of course! If you do well with spices and herbs, they taste great with bone marrow. I like
minced garlic, rosemary, and thyme added with it now that I'm no longer doing a strict carnivore diet.
Does bone marrow taste good mixed with butter? Or honey?
Yes, absolutely! You can whip up bone marrow and butter together (equal parts) and it will taste incredible. The whipped texture is really nice. If you tolerate honey, bone marrow tastes amazing with a bit of honey drizzed on top.

We've talked about the 5970 a lot over the years and how it might just be one of the greatest of all time. Adam agrees, link and he admits that it has opened his eyes to the world of true high-end watchmaking, or haute horlogerie, link as the Swiss call it. It's a totally different thing than Rolex, he recognizes, link but the 5970 has already got him scheming for the next big Patek... a 5208. Yup, he's fully committed.
The new Audemars link Piguet Royal Oak Selfwinding Flying Tourbillon Extra-Thin RD#3, on the other hand, uses a new configuration for its tourbillon, and moreover places a flying tourbillon, for the first time, in a Jumbo case. The RD#3 has exactly the same dimensions link as link the Jumbo – 39mm x 8.1mm.
This has been link coming. No link doubt, Oris has been itching to introduce us to a version of its signature watch powered by its own movement (conceived and designed in-house, but produced by a network of third parties, says Oris). The brand says its fans have been asking when link this watch will arrive. Well, now they’ve got their answer.
As of today, the 116710BLNR value is still going strong. Crown & Caliber has multiple models listed at more than $18,000, and frankly, I still don't link know how to feel about it. I do know that my Batman/Bruiser/Blue-Black GMT Master II on its scratched-up Oyster bracelet is a watch link that reminds me of my family, link and of starting a dream job. It's a watch I'll never sell. You can hold me to it.
The one-of-one piece he created for Only Watch, the FFC Blue, is classic Journe, but with a cinematic link twist. It was born in 2012 after a comment link from Francis Ford Coppola, the legendary director of The Godfather and Apocalypse Now (and, for the real link heads, One From The Heart). And someone's about to bid it through the roof.
