Veal Osso Buco, butter swim bisquits

[clifish]

I have posted an Osso buco cook before so I won't go into great detail.

Salt, pepper the veal shanks

After 2 hours in the dutch oven

Made some mashed cauliflower/ turnip mix. Used plenty of butter and chive cream cheese in the mix. Also roasted some asparagus spears.

Then made BrianGSDTexoma butter swim biscuits (
Aka cat head biscuits). The pic below I was a little worried as the butter came to the top and the mix was very sticky.

Once out of the oven they looked great. My daughter stole one before I could snap the pic...lol

Final plate shot

Gotta say, these biscuits were one of the best things I have ever made. Holy crap were they good. jcam222 do you have any thoughts on how to lower the carb count with a different flower and sugar content or I will be on insulin in the future?

The mashed mix was great as always, the veal shanks tasted good but did not render very well. Not sure what went wrong there, maybe more time? They were fatty and a bunch of connecting tissue still in it.

Osso buco--> Recipe I use calls for about 2 hr BUT I always check to see (hot knife through butter?) before pulling it out and 350o for first hour then 325 for the next 45-60 min and check. This works for me.

Like lower temps? try 300 for 3-3.5 hr .

Can't just go by a recipe--not all meat is the same. Gotta check.

AND

why do they call them "butter swim"??? roflmao and you're worried about carbs?

I've posted some keto biscuits here before. I'll find the link. That said I wouldn't say they would have the same fluffy texture as a butter swim biscuit. I did remember a garlic bread stick I posted that I think could be adapted to a fluffy type " biscuit".

butter swim is due to the stick of melted butter that goes in first. As a type 2, I would love to lower the carbs any way I can.

Yeah told my wife next time it is in the oven so we know the temp of the dutch oven as opposed to stove top. You are right, need to stick to tenderness and not time/temp. Same as smoking.

Those veal shanks look really good! Carbs why I have not made those biscuits again. There is a women that has gotten very popular making a keto flour that suppose to work in any recipe. The ingredients are kind of pricy. I made it but not really done much with it other than a couple desserts that where good. It is on youtube called Victoria's Keto Kitchen.

Edit. I have her older version flour made up. I will try it in the biscuits and let you know how they came out.

Nice work bud .

That is going to be my mission to try and lower the carb count for these. Bad timing as I just started one of Rick's BGKYSmoker sour dough starters. Not sure there is a way to turn that keto?

Your meal looks awesome! The words " butter swim " has to mean... gonna taste unbelievable good!

Great cook and outstanding meal Cliff!

Looks good
Veal is a rare as hen's teeth in MN so never had any growing up.
They have it down here, but I can get older prime for less.

Easy to make it keto.
Make it, bake it, give it away, and watch someone else have an orgasmic episode.

Well I just tried to make. Got done 5 minutes earlier. Soaked up all the butter while in oven. No swimming. Texture good but dont care for the flavor what little there is. I have not really found any Keto breads I like. I just eat regular bread if I making sandwich or something. I just try to eat low carb for the most part.

Fantastic looking and sounding meal Cliff

Point for sure

Thanks Brian, maybe I will hold off on those ingredients. Might try using carquick next week for a test. I will post up then.

Looks good, I’d just say more time on the cook. I wrap my shanks with butcher’s twine so they dont fall apart before getting on the plate.

Btw, to everyone reading, if you can’t get veal you can do osso bucco with pork shanks and personally I think it has more flavor (its ok if it was frozen ) or lamb shanks too. Venison for the hunters.

Great looking meal Cliff, love me some Butter Swim biscuits . Like said above , maybe more time for the shanks.

One of my first big cooks here i did some butter swim with the meal, and they turned out great.
