Osso Buco: Beef Shin on the Bone (sold in packs of approx 900g)

Thick slices of beef shin cut straight across the bone, with the marrow left in the middle. It is the cut behind the classic Italian dish, and one of the most rewarding things you can put in a slow cooker or casserole dish.

As it cooks, the marrow melts into the sauce and the natural collagen in the shin turns the meat beautifully soft, so it falls away from the bone with a fork. The result is a rich, glossy sauce with a depth of flavour that boneless cuts just can't match.

Why cooks love osso buco

The bone marrow adds incredible richness to the sauce

Meltingly tender when cooked low and slow

Looks impressive on the plate with very little effort

All our beef is vacuum packed for freshness and hung for 28 days to develop a deep, rich flavour.

Best for Classic osso buco with gremolata, slow braises, rich stews and ragus.

Cooking tip Brown the slices well, then braise gently with wine, stock and tomatoes for 2.5 to 3 hours until the meat falls from the bone. Tying a piece of string around each slice helps it keep its shape.
