Byerly's also sometimes carries them. And Clancy's in Linden Hills is a good spot, too. Jenny,

I live in the Twin Cities. I'm curious to know where you DID end up finding lamb shanks. These look awesome. I live in the Twin Cities. I’m curious to know where you DID end up finding lamb shanks.

The shanks used to be a budget-friendly cut years ago, but they are expensive now, too. They're worth a splurge--or a reallocation of other food dollars for the week.

They are expensive here and good ones are hard to come by. But I have been wanting to make lamb for the longest time ever. Yours look great! Lamb is something I have almost never cooked before.

Reading that means so much to me. I often think about how much we lose as a culture when memory becomes history and we don't pass down our knowledge, especially in the realm of cooking and eating together. I'm so looking forward to making cheese together when you visit in April. xo Ann, Thank you. Reading that means so much to me.

Sadly, I don't ever recall getting to eat her lamb shanks as a girl, and my mother never cooked them. Thanks for you recipe, I hope to try it out and mend the broken link in my family culinary heritage! My late father spoke fondly of his mother’s lamb shanks as one of his all time favorite dishes.
