Cooking lamb shanks? (Turned our dry after 15hr @ 225F)

Post by L2obin »

I tried cooking lamb shanks on the Kamado today and they turned out dry after 15h @225F - no doubt over cooked.

Hiw long and at what temp should lamb shanks be cooked?

Perhaps reverse searing would work best?

See above Link, I run them about 110/120c for around 5 hours, I do wrap in foil for an hour with a splash of water.
So about 6 hours all up

My cook elsewhere has times and temps.

So 5h at 120c

Then 1hr in foil with some water? Still at 120c or resting?

I cut the White Tendon out that is obvious,rear of the bone.
then just run a knife around the meat at the thin end
the shank then looks after itself.
no need to french or anything, its amazing how people chew a bone

see how the meat balls up to the thick end like a Drumstick
