Nightshade free Braised Beef Shanks Recipe
Just check out the picture below, doesn’t it just make your mouth water!
I always used Irish produced meat when I chow down on beef as I know it is grass fed and cows have lived a fairly stress free life ( I have numerous uncles who are Irish farmers). Obviously you can’t get Irish beef every where but a little investigative work on Google will point you in the right direction of your local grass fed beef producer/retailer.
I believe you can now order grass fed beef over the internet so also consider that as a viable option, just buy a large storage freezer and bulk buy.
