My friend made this and it's the best thing I've ever tasted. It's better than any restaurant. This is the only lamb dish I've ever actually wanted to eat.

[@susanatanjuaquio7111]

I have never cooked lamb before but many thanks to this video I was able to do it yesterday. All the prep was so worth it. It was delicious with rich flavors and not gamey at all. You made me feel like a chef if only for a moment. Thanks to you I have another dish to add to my repertoire. You definitely made me one of your many fans. Surely I will be searching for your other videos.

[@ChefJackOvens]

That’s amazing to hear! I’m glad you enjoyed it. Thank you 🙏

[@kamalekermawi]

I really APPRECIATE the fact that you're naming alternatives for those who cannot consume wine. I cannot express how frustrating it is when chefs add wine into their food without suggesting any other substitutes.

[@ChefJackOvens]

Glad it’s helpful 😊😊

[@MikelKiriakos]

there's lots of zero alcholo wine available in stores

[@hanisrockz]

@@MikelKiriakos not in this part of the world

[@jh7ho203]

3 hours in the oven will almost certainly destroy all the alcohol anyway

Thank you for explaining the different flavours and aromas of the herbs and spices.

[@ChefJackOvens]

Its a pleasure

[@fishingwithrigo6814]

Thanks! This was Amazing!!

[@ChefJackOvens]

Thank you so much Rigo! Really appreciate the support

[@exquisitecandy2684]

My hero! I love lamb, never done it that way! It is a joy to watch you encourage the world to cook amazing food! It doesn’t have to be complicated to be wonderful!! Keep up the great work!!

[@roxx8182]

Had to subscribe after only watching this video. Really excited to wash more recipes. The way you explain everything and the camera work and everything is spot on. Even providing the alternatives for those that cannot consume alcohol, and also explaining what the herbs do for the dish. Absolutely amazing!!

[@ChefJackOvens]

Thank you so much. Glad you enjoyed it 🙏

[@areyoutheregoditsmeminx6812]

The best recipe ever. Never even tried it before until the husband brings it home. I'm looking at it "what do I make of this?" Then I look up lamb shanks and your recipe popped up. Can't believe i copied it and got it perfectly. And again yesterday. I'm obsessed. Thanks Chef, and thanks for the substitutes too.

[@BozoTheBear]

OMG! You think this might be the best on your channel? I can say, hands down, this is the best recipe I've tried on youtube. I've watched hundreds of recipe videos, and tried dozens and dozens - nothing beats this! Thanks so much Jack, your channel has brought a lot of happiness to my family!

[@logicalnetwork1611]

Yes jack channel is the best

[@BozoTheBear]

Today I ordered lamb shank at a local club - it was pretty good, but absolutely nothing compared to this recipe!

[@williamrobinson301]

Thanks!

[@ChefJackOvens]

Thank you so much for your generosity. It means a lot.

[@chrisbland5714]

I’ve now made this two weekends on the trot. (For my wife on Mother’s Day last week firstly and very good friends this week) It was absolutely stunning on both occasions and everyone commented on the wonderful flavours. Thanks and keep up the good work

[@patriciatreslove4449]

I just love lamb shanks,, thank you for sharing

[@billmoyer3254]

One of the finest dishes ever, and so simple. Thank you!!!

[@ChefJackOvens]

You’re very welcome ☺️

[@umbnmbu4679]

Thanks for the @3:35 !!! you are the first ever to mention this!!!!

[@DameTremonti]

Looks fantastic. I literally made something similar about 4 days ago, following a BBC food recipe and it was rubbish compared to yours. It said put the lamb in for 2 hours on 160 degrees. I did and the carrots and onions were still rock hard and i threw most of it away. Gonna seek redemption by trying this out. Thanks again you legend. All the best.

[@Auntie_Trev]

I wish you wouldn't do this to me Jack. It's 08:50 and I am on a fasting day, and what do you show me - a delicious lamb shank recipe!! I now have to go 24 hours being unable to unsee this saucy recipe. But it's not all bad news, I can try it out at the weekend. Great recipe mate, thanks for sharing.

[@dalejoy193]

Exceptional, well done Jack. Cooked this dish last night. I added sweet potato and potato mash as a base. Exceptional.

[@leainagosine9207]

Didn't expect this to be so easy thanks I hope when I try it, it comes out perfect like yours did lol great recipe

[@ChefJackOvens]

It really is so easy and I can guarantee it will come out just as good, if not better 😊🙌

[@jenniferbrown4666]

Love the way he guides you through

[@gracejoy5339]

Thanks for taking us through all the steps!

[@a95569]

I'm in Johannesburg, South Africa. I'll be making this on Christmas day. Thanks for the great recipe!

[@sonasp1961]

Made this over the weekend. Loved the sauce, the meat was so tender and fell off the bone. Couldn't find Kestrel potatoes so went with baby potatoes which worked really well. Thank you for another great recipe and an easy to follow video demonstration, can't wait to try another.

[@ChefRalphVeloso]

Best cooking channel on KZbin as usual

You’re too kind 😊🙏

Excellent detail and you made it look so stress free, well done cheers mate.

I just tried this recipe and waiting patiently for 3 1/2 hours. I can literally smell it….can’t wait to see the end results. Thank you

[@ChefJackOvens]

Hope you enjoyed it

[@intellectualsmoke]

Update?

[@MsDIYSupplies]

@@intellectualsmoke hubby said taste like restaurant and even better cos cooked with love. Worth to try

[@AsTheWheelsTurn]

THIS is a great recipe. I have made it three times now and it is just so good. I made it for dinner today and instead of shanks I had shoulder chops...works just as well with shoulder Chops, only the presentation looks differant.instead of putting a full shank on the plate you just shred up some of the chops and put it on. taste is just the same... for the side I made asparagus . served it in the same way, it was top notch. even my picky 10 and 12 year olds were good with it , aside form the lamb itself, they don't seem to like it but that ok they liked everything else so that is a win, lots of good nutrition for them in the veggies and lamb sauce

[@mamadoundiaye9026]

I'm Muslim so it's great that you thought about those who don't consume alcohol. 👍🏾

[@fredacuneo5180]

Looks delicious. Thanks. I got some lamb shanks on sale at the grocery store yesterday and this looks perfect for preparing them.

[@ChefJackOvens]

It’s such a good dish and worth the time and effort

[@Necr0Mancer666]

Thank you again. Your videos are so easy to understand. Appreciate your skills mate!

[@petercarroll2323]

Looks awesome … thinking of making this dish for Saint Patrick’s Day !

Thank you 🙏

[@IanCropper]

It's just on the cusp of winter here in Melbourne. I managed to get some cheap shanks at my local store the other day and then by sheer chance, discovered your recipe on KZbin. Salivating at the thought! Still can't believe how all those former cheap cuts like shanks, oxtail, Chuck and shin have become relatively expensive. I'm thinking a harmless drop of Aussie cabsav will be the perfect partner! Best wishes from Ian.

[@ChefJackOvens]

Cheers Ian! I feel you here in Adelaide. Starting to get cold now. This is the perfect recipe to have with a glass of red

[@leventemore3205]

that's a perfect dinner for any occasion and the way you presented so easily understood,thank you for thus recepie and Merry Christmas!

[@inquisitorholt8782]

I subscribed the moment you said that you were not a fan of celery LOL!

Haha! Thank you

I have been searching for no red wine recipe. I love that u gave the option of substitute for non drinkers . Amazing

[@sabirkarimli2996]

It came out insane! Thanks for the amazing recipe, the only difference that I used was using sparkling red wine which makes the meat softer and added radish and cilantro on top to decorate better.

Looks great mate. Really like that outtro music too.
