Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Homemade Beef Dog Food.
Step 1
To start your delicious homemade dog food, grab a large skillet and heat it over medium-high heat.
Step 2
Once it's nice and warm, add in the ground beef.
Step 3
Cook it while stirring frequently until it’s beautifully browned and crumbly, which should take about 5 to 7 minutes.
Step 4
Don’t forget to drain any excess grease to keep it healthy for your furry friend.
Step 5
Next, in a stockpot, combine 6 cups of water with the brown rice.
Step 6
Toss in the browned beef, assorted beef bones, and a sprinkle of chopped rosemary for that aromatic touch.
Step 7
Bring this hearty mixture to a boil, and once it’s bubbling away, reduce the heat to medium-low and let it simmer.
Step 8
Stir occasionally to prevent sticking, and let it cook until the rice is soft and mushy, which will take around 45 minutes.
Step 9
If you notice it getting too thick, feel free to add a splash more water to keep it just a bit thicker than porridge.
Step 10
While the rice is cooking, take the drained carrots, drained spinach, and eggs (with their shells) and pop them into an electric blender.
Step 11
Blend everything together until it’s a smooth puree, ensuring no eggshells remain.
Step 12
In a separate bowl, mix the pumpkin puree with your blended vegetable and egg mixture until it’s well combined.
Step 13
Once your meat and rice mixture is ready, remove it from the heat and stir in the pumpkin and egg blend.
Step 14
Let it sit for about 5 minutes in the residual heat to make sure the eggs are fully cooked.
Step 15
Finally, allow the dog food to cool completely before serving, which should take around 30 minutes.
Step 16
Your pup is going to love this nutritious meal, and you’ll feel great knowing exactly what’s in it!.
