Bring rich, hearty flavor to your table with our premium Buffalo Osso Bucco! Cut from the shank of pasture-raised bison, these bone-in pieces are perfect for slow cooking and braising, creating tender, flavorful meals with a deliciously rich sauce.
Inspired by the traditional Italian dish, Buffalo Osso Bucco offers a unique twist on a classic favorite. Each cross-cut shank contains a marrow-filled bone surrounded by flavorful meat that becomes wonderfully tender when cooked low and slow.
Why Choose Our Buffalo Osso Bucco?
- Premium Bone-In Shank: Cross-cut buffalo shank pieces with rich marrow bones that add depth and flavor to slow-cooked dishes.
- Pasture-Raised Bison: Raised on spacious pastures with room to graze naturally.
- Rich, Savory Flavor: The combination of meat, bone, and connective tissue creates exceptional flavor when braised.
- Protein-Rich: Bison provides high-quality protein, iron, zinc, and essential B vitamins.
- Perfect for Slow Cooking: Ideal for traditional Osso Bucco, hearty stews, and braised shank recipes.
Cooking Buffalo Osso Bucco
Buffalo Osso Bucco is best prepared using slow, moist-heat cooking methods that gradually break down the connective tissue and create tender, flavorful meat.
- Traditional Braising: Season and lightly brown the shanks in a Dutch oven. Add onions, carrots, celery, garlic, tomatoes, and broth or wine. Cover and simmer gently until the meat is fork-tender.
- Oven Cooking: Braise covered in a 300–325°F oven with your favorite vegetables, herbs, and cooking liquid until tender.
- Slow Cooker: Combine the shanks with broth, vegetables, and seasonings. Cook on low until the meat becomes tender and easily pulls away from the bone.
Serving Suggestions: Serve Buffalo Osso Bucco over creamy mashed potatoes, polenta, risotto, or buttered noodles. Finish with fresh parsley and lemon zest for a traditional Italian-inspired touch.
Cooking Tip: Don't rush this cut! Gentle, slow cooking allows the connective tissue to soften while the marrow adds richness to the cooking liquid.
Enjoy the distinctive flavor of pasture-raised buffalo in this comforting, slow-cooked classic!
