Serving Ideas : Serve with dark bread and fresh fruit salad.
NOTES : Beef shanks cook to toothsome tenderness in the slow cooker. Serve with dark bread to soak up all the flavorful sauce. This recipe can also be done in a deep skillet. Cook beef for 2-3 hours before adding vegetables. May need to add water to prevent sticking. Delicious!!!!
