Most underrated cut ever. Extremely cheap beef cut because most people don't know how to cook it, but becomes a top tier cut in terms of flavour, tenderness, and easy of cooking when cooked in an automatic pressure cooker.

Since it's so fucking affordable I've put a cut of beef shank in my instant pot almost every other day. Works perfectly with anything salty & savoury. Works well in stews. Works perfectly when pulled and used as filling for tacos, etc etc.

Why dont you do your part to keep it that way and delete this thread. Osso bucco can never fall into hipster hands

How can you justify eating beef shank when you can get top loin strip? You can't. You might as well buy some 80/20 ground beef.

It is affordable actually, your butcher probably takes you for a ride. Dumb fag.

That's how you make the meat fall off from the bone in twenty minutes instead of six hours

it is not as affordable as beef shank, period
affordability person-to-person is not a static measure
affordability product-to-product is a comparable measure with or without the context of personal affordability

take a fucking economics course, literal uneducated subhuman

Beef shank is god awful dried and tough shit muscle meat. You know nothing of value yet you speak of affordability and economics... pathetic. Sorry youre too autistic to befriend a butcher.

okay so you don't actually cook at all and also don't know your local butcher got it

Compared to top loin it is. This is not debatable.

After half an hour in a pressure cooker it's soft & tender enough that you can cut it with the side of a fork

>> No.12128942

>>12128932
Thats not "tenderness". The meat is literally just falling apart. Like a ribeye.

>> No.12129085

>>12128777
I just ate one pan-fried, but mostly raw/rare inside. I'm thinking it was almost like eating for free. Delete this thread OP.

(Lot of the mouthfulls were tendony or hard to chew, might be why normies stay away from this cut?)

Thats how I made it the one time i got it. I like rare meat. This needs some fucking work. But that goo inside the bone is fucking to die for. Which I would gladly do.

I have no experience with pressure cookers.

Does it just shorten the time of boiling something? By how much?

When I make osso buco I make sure to have some toasted bread handy for when the meat has been stewing a while. Then I scoop out the marrow and have a lovely afternoon snack.

Found two nice slices on sale recently actually. I should make osso buco again soon even though we are kind of moving out of stew season. If nothing else I'll at least have a few more pics to post in threads like this instead of having to reuse this one.
