Usually Pho Bo is a dish you could make on the weekend. It's a pretty easy to make if you have all the ingredients, but it's very time consuming. It takes hours to cook over the stove, and this allows the bones and the aromatics to do their magic and create a rich, savory broth. This beef-based version of pho is prepared with assorted cuts and parts of beef - the stock is made from beef bones, shank, ox tail, and neck, while the toppings include thinly sliced fatty brisket (gầu), flank, eye-round steak, tripe, cooked and raw beef (tái nạm), tendon (gân), or beef balls (phở bò viên), but the latter version is not that popular in Vietnam.
