Braised Pulled Lamb Shanks
"It’s really an honor to partner with KOL Foods to bring you this recipe. If you’ve seen my other KOL Foods recipes you will know that I am a big fan of their organic and pasture raised meat, poultry and fish. They are a company with a moral backbone, paying their farmers a livable wage and raising their animals in a hormone-free and healthy environment. Their focus of green energy, clean and healthy eating is a beacon of light in the food industry.
Braising the lamb shanks with plenty of onions makes meat that is soft and succulent. The onions add a sweetness to the lamb stock when they cook over time. You can braise in red wine or stock. I used a quart of KOL Foods lamb stock that I had slow cooked overnight sweet potatoes and onions for an additional punch of natural sweetness." - This American Bite
