Roast beef bones in the oven at 400 degrees for 30 minutes.

Transfer the roasted bones to the Instant Pot.

Add 8 cups of water to the Instant Pot, covering the bones completely.

Add chopped fresh ginger, 1 medium onion, 1 large carrot, and 2 celery stalks to the pot.

Add 2 teaspoons of sea salt (Himalayan pink or any sea salt).

Add bay leaves and whole spices like black pepper, cloves, and cinnamon for flavor.

Add 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar to help leach minerals from the bones.

Stir the mixture quickly to combine all ingredients.

Seal the Instant Pot valve and select the soup or broth function, setting it for 2 hours at normal pressure.

After about 2.5 hours, allow the valve to drop and open the lid.

Remove the bones from the pot to extract the marrow.

Optionally, freeze the bones to use again for another batch of broth.

Use a knife to extract the marrow from the bones, which can be eaten separately or added back to the broth.

You can strain the broth to remove vegetables for a clear broth or leave them in for added flavor.
