MAKING A LARGE FANCY BATCH OF PHO

BEEF PHO- STOVE TOP

This is a much more complicated pho recipe. I made a lot cause family was in town. If you want a simplified broth recipe, let me know =)

7.5 lbs beef bones
1.5 lbs beef brisket
2 lbs beef shank
4.5 lbs beef ribs
1.5 oz bag old man pho spice bag*
2 or 3 rock sugar, the size of a golf ball each
2 large onions
2 large ginger
1.5 TBSP sauce
10 quarts water

ADDITIONAL SEASONING
1/2 cup fish sauce
2 TBSP chicken bouillon

TOPPINGS:
Onion, thinly sliced
Cilantro, chopped
Scallion, chopped
Culantro
Basil
Bean sprouts
Beef shank, thinly sliced
Beef brisket, thinly sliced
Beef ribs

1. We need to par-boil/ blanch our beef. In a large stock pot, fill it with beef bones, beef brisket, beef shank and beef ribs. Fill the pot with water and bring it over high heat. Bring to boil and let it cook for 5-10 mins. There will be scum that floats to the top. After 5-10 mins, turn off heat, rinse and drain beef under cold water.

2. While you ur beefs were blanching, prepare your aromatics. Peel your onion. Slice your ginger in half and char them.
(Note: You can do it on an open fire, air fryer or broiler. I had mine broiling for 10 mins each side)

3. oast ur spices on a dry skillet. This should not take long… 3-5 mins. Place your spice into the bag it comes with and set this aside.

4. In a clean large stock pot, fill it back with your blanched beef bones, beef brisket, beef shank and beef ribs along with your charred onions, charred ginger, rock sugar, salt and 10 quarts of water. Bring this to a boil. Once boiling. Reduce heat and cook for at least 7 hours.

5. After 2 or 3 hours, remove your beef shank, beef brisket and beef ribs. Place into an ice bath Fill your pot with water as needed. Allow you brisket and shank to cool before thinly slicing.
(Note:I only fill it up with water1-2 times. I fill it up with water after taking out the beef shank, brisket and ribs. And the second time I fill back up with water is around the 5 or 6 hour mark of simmering.)

6. When there is 30-60 mins left of your simmering process, I like to add my spice bag. You may add your spice longer if you’d like. My parents don’t like pho with a strong spice so I limit to 30-60 mins.

7. After a total of 7 hours of simmering, remove everything in side— spice bag, onions, ginger, and beef bones.

8. Pour your broth thru a fine strainer. Allow broth to cool before placing into the fridge. The fat on top of your broth will harden, remove this. I actually left mine outside because it’s really cold rn and had the fat harden that way. Return broth back to stove and season to preference. I seasoned with 1/2 cup fish sauce and 2 TBSP chicken bouillon.

9. Assemble your bowl with your preferred toppings and ladle your broth over. Make sure your broth is boiling when you ladle it into your bowl. I have a video on how to do this posted before this one =)

I’m an Aussie and the one thing I’m grateful for is the large Vietnamese population here. I love eating pho and there’s so many places to get it close by

Hello, white girl from Texas who loves pho. I made this one time and let me tell you it is an all day thing for sure.
It was fun learning something new and it tasted delicious. I just wished I would’ve had your directions.

There is something so absolutely American about watching a video on making Pho (a Vietnamese delicacy) in a Bucees T shirt. Bravo!

I usually do emergency pho recipe only. Decided to do this recipe tonight, hopefully it’ll turn out good tomorrow 😂

So many ways to do pho but this one is so home made with little care for sophisticated presentation that I could relate to -- sort of like me watching myself actually doing the cooking

Making this now but with the recipe (portions rather) from the instant pot! I tried the instant pot one and it came out SO GOOD!! I was feeling sick and figured I’d try to make it before I started dying from the cold. It saved me lol.
