Elk osso bucco

[peterk123]

I have wanting to do this, instead of deboning the leg, for sure some time. Going to slow cook them all day.

I haven’t done it with elk but do use the meat eater recipe for venison shanks and it is always a favorite.

I will never grind up leg meat again. Just wow.

Looks fantastic. Never thought of it. This will be the future plan from now on.

Stripping out the meat in the shank and trying to remove the silver skin is such a time consuming pain in the ass, all just to throw it in the grinder.

Had it with venison a month ago, not that difficult and very good

Braised Venison Shanks Osso Buco

This osso buco recipe turns the lowly shank into a fine-dining creation. You can use the shanks from any big game animal with equally great results for this osso buco recipe. When I’m butchering, I simply wrap my shanks in plastic wrap and freezer paper and then freeze them whole. When I’m ready...

Exactly.

I don't get why people grind up the best parts. In cow, people are trying to give you 58 different round roasts and then they take all the chuck areas and grind them into hamburger.

Now, I'm not against a chuck burger. In fact, all of my hand-ground burger is chuck in nature. But if I'm looking for parts to save and parts to grind, I'd be racing to grind most of the rounds and saving the chucks and such.

Low and slow makes such tender, tasty food.

Which reminds me - I've still got a 3# bag of short ribs in teh freezer. I still need to figure out what to do with them. Braise or BBQ. Hmmmmm. Tough call.
