Braised Venison Shanks

[IronNoggin]

I've always just cut the meat off these to toss in the sausage pile.
But one of my Buddies tried this out, and claims it was Awesome!
He did suggest a little lower heat over a longer period of time than noted in the recipe.
Literally Melts in your Mouth is the word!



Given that I have a pretty good pile of sausage material (the whole muley buck) and took a young whitetail doe, methinks I will definitely be trying this recipe out! That young doe should be Uber-Delicious cooked up this way methinks!

Just thought I'd share for anyone looking to try something a little different with this cut...

Letcha know how ours turns out...

Cheers,

Some of my chef friend usually braise their deer shanks as well. They are just fine!

absolutely- I did some moose shanks,and they are delicious-one tip-NEVER throw out pickle juice when you finish the jar-I use it so many ways-including diluting and using for braising

I also used to put the shanks in the sausage pile. But after making Osso Bucco a few years back I keep all the shanks from Deer,Moose etc.It's a great winter dinner plus if you put red/white wine in your recipe.you get the bonus of having a glass while your supper cooks.
