Grass-Fed Lamb Shank — Fall-Off-the-Bone Tender, Built for the Braise
Our Grass-Fed Lamb Shanks are the ultimate slow-cook cut — naturally rich in collagen, deeply flavorful, and designed to transform into melt-in-your-mouth tenderness when braised low and slow. The bone-in shank is the most dramatic, most flavorful presentation in the lamb catalog — one shank per person, braised in red wine, garlic, and herbs, is one of the most satisfying meals in all of slow cooking. Raised on open regenerative pastures, 100% grass-fed and finished, no antibiotics, hormones, or GMOs.
Why Our Grass-Fed Lamb Shank Is Different
- Bone-In for Maximum Flavor — The bone marrow and collagen enrich the braising liquid throughout cooking, creating an extraordinarily rich, silky sauce.
- 100% Grass-Fed & Finished — Higher in omega-3s, CLA, and trace minerals than conventional lamb. Cleaner flavor, superior nutrition.
- Collagen-Rich Slow-Cook Cut — The shank muscle is one of the hardest-working in the animal — low and slow cooking converts the collagen to gelatin for meltingly tender results.
- No Antibiotics, Hormones, or GMOs — Raised on regenerative pastures with ethical, humane farming practices.
- A Complete Meal in One Cut — One shank per person, served over polenta, mashed potatoes, or white beans with the braising liquid as sauce.
- Ships Frozen Nationwide — Vacuum-sealed and packed with dry ice.
How to Cook Grass-Fed Lamb Shank
Pat completely dry and season generously with salt and black pepper. Sear in a hot Dutch oven with tallow or avocado oil until deeply browned on all sides — 3–4 minutes per side. Remove and sauté aromatics (onion, carrot, celery, garlic) in the same pot. Deglaze with red wine, scraping up all the browned bits. Return the shanks, add broth to come halfway up the meat, and add fresh rosemary, thyme, and bay leaves. Cover tightly and braise at 300°F for 2.5–3 hours until the meat pulls easily from the bone. The braising liquid reduces into a natural sauce — serve over polenta, mashed potatoes, or white beans.

Frequently Asked Questions
Plan on 2.5–3 hours at 300°F in a covered Dutch oven for fall-off-the-bone tenderness. The shank is done when the meat pulls away from the bone easily and offers no resistance when prodded with a fork. For a slow cooker, 6–8 hours on low produces the same result hands-off. For a pressure cooker, 35–40 minutes at full pressure delivers fork-tender results in a fraction of the time.
Searing before braising is essential — not optional. The Maillard reaction that occurs when the meat hits a hot pan creates hundreds of new flavor compounds that develop the deep, complex flavor of the finished braise. Skipping the sear produces a pale, flat-tasting result regardless of how long you braise. Pat the shank completely dry before searing — moisture prevents browning. Take your time to develop a deep crust on all sides.
Red wine and broth is the classic combination — the wine adds acidity and depth, the broth adds body. A full-bodied red like Cabernet Sauvignon, Syrah, or Côtes du Rhône works well. For a non-wine preparation, use all broth with a splash of balsamic vinegar for acidity. For Moroccan preparations, use broth with preserved lemon and spices. The liquid should come approximately halfway up the shank — not fully submerged.
After removing the shanks, strain the braising liquid into a saucepan and skim off excess fat. Simmer over medium-high heat until reduced by half — it will thicken into a rich, glossy sauce that coats the back of a spoon. Taste and adjust seasoning. This natural reduction is far superior to any store-bought gravy and requires no thickening agents — the gelatin from the bone does all the work.
