Lamb Shanks



Lamb is a rather expensive meat, but I really love the flavor I can get out of it.  Last night I visited a local grocery store and they ha 5 packages of Lamb Shanks marked down for quick sale.  I'm talking really marked down.  They were marked down from $8.00 a package or so to $2.18 per package.  What a deal!  I bought them all!

Lamb Shanks

4 to 6 lamb shanks
4 Tbsp. Balsamic Vinegar
4 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
2 Tbsp. Worcestershire
1 Tbsp. ground pepper
1 tsp. Thyme
1/2 stick real butter

Melt butter in a deep skillet (one with a lid).  Add the lamb shanks and brown quickly on each side.  Add the Balsamic Vinegar, Soy Sauce and Worcestershire.  Add seasonings and 2 cups of water.  Cook, covered, over medium heat for approximately 1 hour, adding water as needed.  Water should not cover the lamb shanks, but be enough for them to simmer.

Remove from the drippings and serve with a little bit of the drippings drizzled over top.  These were so tender they fell apart!

Enjoy!
