Beef Shank Osso Bucco

January 31, 2019 Easy Meals

When I think of Beef Shank Osso Bucco, I think of home. This dish just simply gives you the feeling of warmth and coziness, and takes me back to my childhood. Often my Mom would roast beef with potatoes & carrots and it would have the house smelling so amazing when I came home from school. It would taste just as good as it smelled, and the meat would always be so tender. That’s the same feeling that Osso Bucco gives. While the name alone sounds kind of intimidating, I’m here to show you that it’s an easy and satisfying dish to make.

To kick off Black History Month, I’ve joined a group of talented black chefs, food bloggers, and food enthusiasts in the 2019 Virtual Pot Luck. We were all challenged to share some of our favorite recipes that we’d love for you to try! I included this Beef Shank recipe because it’s a comforting, show stopping dish that is beyond easy to make if you prepare it with love. For me, that is the feeling I get when I think about my ancestors and elders. I did not grow up on traditional “soul food”, so I wanted to offer you a recipe that wasn’t traditional, yet it still warms your soul.

For a list of recipes for the other participants, please keep reading to the end.

The Beef

Origin

First, you need to know that Osso Bucco translates to “bone with a hole” in Italian. Essentially it’s referring to the bone marrow of the shank when you cut it. The bone marrow is the signature part of this dish. Some people enjoy to eat it, and some just like to admire its beauty. Also, it’s good to know that traditionally Osso Bucco is made with veal. So, make sure you keep this in mind when ordering this dish at a restaurant. I prefer to eat mine with Beef Shank.

Where to purchase

The beef shanks that I purchased for this dish are from my local grocery store. Typically, they will be sliced at 2 to 2.5 inches thick. If you would like a grander cut with a longer bone, then you can make a special order at your local butcher. It may take a few days to come in, so keep this in mind if you’d like to make this dish for Easter or another holiday.

Tip

If possible, ask your butcher to tie the sliced shank with butcher’s twine. If that option is not available, then tie each slice yourself. You can do it! Just make sure the twine is tied firmly around the circumference of each shank.

Pairing Options

I enjoy pairing my Beef Shank Osso Bucco with parmesan creamy polenta or good ol’ mashed potatoes. I’ve always had it paired with a starch, but I’ve heard of people placing the meat over a bed of roasted vegetables.

I’m not going to lie, I’m having a bad case of I’m not going to lie, I’m having a bad case of the Mondays. Well....I was. In my stories I shared that it started off pretty rocky😩 but thankfully a little antique shopping for Foodtography props, got me back into good spirits. Anywho, I saw some gorgeous heirloom tomatoes at the grocery store this morning, so it got me in the mood for my Mediterranean Couscous Stuffed Tomatoes with Feta and Artichokes. It’s savory and tangy, with a filling that is delish with or without the tomatoes😋 Find this easy recipe at the link in my bio.

Midweek check-in: how’s everyone doing? I think Midweek check-in: how’s everyone doing? I think one thing that’s consistent for almost everyone, is that most of us are experiencing some pretty cold weather here in the US. My thoughts and prayers are with everyone who has lost their gas and electricity recently. Please stay bundled up with lots of layers, if possible. We’ll be doing the same over here, and if I can gather up the energy, I’ll be getting cozy with a hot cup of cocoa or tea.

Happy Valentines Day from The Daniels Crew💖💙 Happy Valentines Day from The Daniels Crew💖💙❤️ We started celebrating early with funny and intense stories over Valentines cake for the kids, that I showed in my stories yesterday. A lot of you asked who made the cake, and it was from the talented @justnotthecakes. (FYI, you’re viewing the very first Daniels Party of 5 photo. You guys didn’t warn me that it’s nearly impossible to get all 3 kids in the photo at once. Let alone have them all looking into the camera. Finally, we got one good shot together🥰 but the rest had to be apart🤷🏾‍♀️ I’m hoping it gets better with age?😩)
Confession: I think I enjoy celebrating Valentines Confession: I think I enjoy celebrating Valentines this year more than I did Christmas. I don’t know, maybe it’s because the kids have really been into Valentines this year. Or, it could be the fact that I felt the need to make it super special  since it’s yet another holiday during a pandemic🤷🏾‍♀️ Either way, it was nice to decorate this year and have daily goodies for the kids and the hubs😉 Swipe through to see how I easily got our Valentines decor together. 

Do you guys enjoy seeing entertaining decor content from me? If so, I’ll start to make it more detailed so that you can do it at home too💖
Is it Friday yet? I need it to come 👏🏾on 👏🏾now👏🏾I didn’t feel like making anything fancy tonight, so I threw together my One Pot Margherita Pasta. I just appreciate that everyone in the house actually eats this dish. Find the recipe at the link in my bio and save for later. (Excuse Ivey’s Grrrr🦖 at the end of the last clip🤦🏾‍♀️🤣)
I know your feed has been bombarded with Valentine I know your feed has been bombarded with Valentines this and Valentines that. So, I gotta know. What are you planning on doing for Valentines or Galentines Day, if anything? Has all the inspiration encouraged or discouraged you to do anything? Since the last year hasn’t allowed us to venture like we’re used to, we are definitely doing something special for the kiddos and then having a little getaway celebration of our own. Let’s hear what you got!
