:lol: That's strange Nog, just a couple hours ago my neighbor was telling me about how delicious the shanks are. I never heard of anyone making them until he mentioned it, now you post about it and those absolutely do look delicious!
We always used to try and remove all the silver skin etc and grind them.
Once we discovered just how darn good they are when cooked properly, they have become a favorite and coveted cut!

Cheers,
Nog

Nog, just wanted you to know that I really enjoy this thread. I'm not much of a chef, but you've inspired me to try some new things. Thanks for sharing with us. Happy holidays to you and your family. :thumbup:

Leg of Lamb night:

Image

Took some of the garlic scape pesto we made last summer, mixed that with Greek Spice, Olive Oil, Onion, Dry Mustard and a shot of Dijon Mustard for the glaze:

Image

325 in the clay baker for a little better than an hour and a half:

Image

While it rested for a spell, I tossed first taters (diced, a dab of Olive Oil and spices) into the Air Fryer.

Once they were done, I ran the Brussels (made bacon bits while the leg was cooking, saved the grease and lathered on the Sprouts with a little salt) through the Air Fryer to caramelize.

Carved the leg:

Image

Done to perfection!

Then served up the lot with the Taters, and Brussels (to which was added the Bacon Bits & Pine Nuts):

Image

Served with yet another Fine Merlot.
Knocked this one right out of the park!! :thumbup:

Cheers,
Nog

Whitetail tonight, Pheasant tomorrow.
