Some large number of months ago I had a conversation itt with red about making venison Osso Bucco, well today was the day.
My 10yo hacksaw blade wasn’t doing the trick so the most reasonable solution would be get a new blade, the better solution was obvious.
White tail shanks are pretty small so I cut them longer than traditional Osso buco. So they aren’t going to look super pretty. Dredged in some flour and browned a big ol pile of shanks
Prepped the braise,
Add a lot of time and a little bit of heat.
This is actually for tomorrow’s dinner, so you only get gnarly pot shots for the moment. I’ll plate it up and make it sexy tomorrow. The meat is pretty damn incredible. I’ve never actually cooked a venison shank before (these are from 2 deer last November).
I’m about out of venison and it’s a bit sad. Hopefully I can get another 1-2 come November.
