Beef Shanks – who would ever guess what a fantastic find they are. Last week, when I was at the store I purchased four beef shanks and decided to slow cook them in the oven. It is amazing that just a few ingredients could produce one of the most marvelous meals; perfect on these cool fall days. The marrow from the bones melts into the sauce and it is a true taste treat. I served these with polenta however, they would be equally good with pasta, rice or crusty bread. This would be a great meal to entertain family and friends.
