Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef

    Season the beef shank with salt and black pepper on all sides.

  2. 2

    Sear the Meat

    In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the beef shank and sear until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Vegetables

    In the same pot, add the chopped onion, carrots, and celery. Cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes.

  4. 4

    Deglaze the Pot

    Pour in the red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot. Let it simmer for about 3-4 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add Broth and Seasonings

    Return the beef shank to the pot, add the beef broth, bay leaves, and thyme. Bring to a boil.

  6. 6

    Braise the Shank

    Reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 2.5 to 3 hours, or until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Remove the beef shank from the pot, slice, and serve with the vegetables and sauce.
