Smoking

  • For this recipe, i'm using the Twin Oaks Pellet Grill & Smoker from Cuisinart. I smoked the veal shanks on the pellet smoker section, then simmered on the gas grill section. You can use any grill or smoker.
  • Heat your smoker at 225°F and smoke the shanks for about 45-60 minutes
  • While the shanks are smoking, turn the gas grill section at high
  • In a large kettle, heat the olive oil and stir in the celery, onions and the carrots.
  • Add the red wine, the chicken broth, the rosemary and the bay leaves.
  • Lower the grill temperature
  • Cover the kettle and simmer
  • When the shank smoking is done, put the shanks in the broth, cover, and simmer for about 3 hours.
  • Serve on rice or pasta
