"This recipe was something I created after a visit to Spain. The meat is tender and there is a wonderful lip smacking quality about the sauce. My whole family loves this one, hopefully you will to. Enjoy--"

Easy, tender and delicious as promised. To clarify the instructions - do your meat first, and then put it in the 6-7 hours with the other things. Did mine with osso buco tail cut rather than shanks.
