Beef shank is a flavorful, economical cut from the leg, ideal for slow cooking, braising, and soups. Rich in connective tissue, it becomes tender and imparts deep beefy flavor when cooked low and slow.
Beef shank is a tough, sinewy cut from the leg, commonly used for braises, stews, osso buco, and hearty soups. Slow, moist cooking breaks down collagen into gelatin, producing tender meat and a rich, savory broth. Trim excess fat as desired. Sold per pound and ideal for long-simmered family meals; refrigerate or freeze if not used promptly.
