Osso Buco (Slow Cooker)

Posted on October 3, 2015 by Lanie Fioretti

One of my favorite Italian braises.  I’ve used veal shanks, beef shanks, turkey legs (or drumettes), and it’s always delicious.  If you use turkey legs, have the butcher slice them to look like shanks and use only the thicker parts (the rest use for broth).  For this recipe, I found some great lamb shanks, so…
