Congratulations! You've stumbled upon the often overlooked cross-cut beef shank. This is perhaps the most underrated cut of beef, but there are lots of reasons you should consider trying it today:
- Lean. Makes for a great high-protein, low-fat meal
- Rich Beef Flavor
- Marrow included! That cross-cut leg bone is filled with succulent marrow
- Low cost per pound (less than $3/lb Steakhouse and $4/lb Organic)
- Easy. Just braise (slow cook) it, or get a little more creative
With all that going for it, the value proposition of a good beef shank is forever in your flavor. Try it in a stew, a soup, osso buco, a simple moist-heat braise, or what may be Ron Burgundy's favorite style, Beef Burgundy (Bourguignon). Did we mention osso buco?
Our Beef Shanks come two per package and, like all beef shanks, are cut from the Shank Primal, which is a portion of the leg and is used extensively for movement.
