I take the bone out and vacuum pac for my hunting adventures. But yes, if its a meal at home I at least cut them in half.
Cam, there was one front shank amongst them. Top right - I partially cut it through shorter and bent it to fit the fry pan when I browned them.

I now prefer veni shanks cooked in an oven bag over slow cooker method but both are great. Browned in the pan and the cooked in the oven bag with Garlic a little Rosemary and ground Cumin 5 hrs for stag size

There's no cumin in our house anymore Its an age thing.

Its interesting how we have different tastes. I find that rosemary leaves a bitter back ground taste, so use fresh tyme
The oven bags are a good idea. In the pan, any of the shank not in fluid can dry out a bit if you don't keep basting them.

Ingredients in mine are:

Flour and smoked paprika mix for browning.
Chopped onion
Red wine to de-glaze pan
Brown sugar
Worcester sauce
Balsamic vinegar
Chicken stock
Puccini mushroom stock cube
Garlic
Tin of chopped tomatoes
Couple of sprigs of fresh tyme
Bay leaves

The oven bag acts like a mini pressure cooker, so that the positive pressure keeps the moisture in the meat and they come out very tender. Just dry roasting is a disaster. No matter what way we cook our shanks they are a great source of Collagen
I have collected only one feed of Porcini's this year from some local oaks, dont know if I would be allowed to put them in with shanks

A nice simple one today- homemade pizza using veni salami. The inclusion of pineapple may be sacrilege to some but it got no complaints here.

Have a search for Greek octopus meat balls or patties, we had these on a Dive boat off Kalymnos, they were only going to serve them to us once but we loved them that much we asked for them nearly every night over "flasher" menu options .The crew & cook were wrapped as they loved eating them as well & super easy to cook ,the Greeks fast before their Easter & this is one of the "reward"snacks they are allowed, bloody delicious if you love your sea food & great with a cold beer.If you can not find a recipe let us know & l will dig up the one the missus uses

Getting back into cray season. Pinched a couple of these from mount main beach area. Bit of home made bread and burnt butter and lemon sauce. So easy, so good
