        Transfer bones and trimmings to a stockpot, and
   degrease the roasting pan.  Place over medium-high
   heat and stir in 1/2 cups of water, scraping up any
   browned bits.  Pour these deglazed juices into the

   cover partially, and simmer 3 to 4 hours, skimming
   frequently.
   
        Strain stock into bowl through a colander lined
   with double layer of dampened cheesecloth.  Gently
   press solids to extract all of the liquid, discard the
   solids.  Cool.  Remove fat from surface.
   
        Stock can be stored for up to a week in a
   refrigerator.
