We prefer the flavor of 85 percent lean ground beef, but 90 percent lean beef can be used. Our winning beef broth is Better Than Bouillon Beef Base.

Heat oil in large saucepan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add beef to pot, breaking into rough 1-inch chunks. Cook, stirring occasionally, until beef is browned and fond develops on pan bottom, 6 to 8 minutes. Add broth and gelatin and bring to simmer, scraping up browned bits. Reduce heat to medium-low and gently simmer, covered, for 30 minutes. Strain broth through fine-mesh strainer into large container, pressing on solids to extract as much liquid as possible.
