Cooking question: Anyone ever make Osso Bucco with Beef Shanks?
I know the recipe calls for veal shanks, and when I have made it in the past with veal, it's turned out well.
I have a big group to feed next weekend, and was thinking that Osso Bucco with beef shanks would work, and would help keep the costs down a bit. Online recipes say they work, but I am looking for some first-hand experience. TIA

That is what I use, regularly. Up until recently I couldn't get veal shanks here. Use the beef, it will be delicious.

I've used beef shanks and I've also used lamb. Wonderful either way.
