HEARTY OLD-FASHIONED VEGETABLE BEEF SOUP

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• In a large stockpot or Dutch oven , combine the beef shanks, beef stock, onion, pepper, bay leaf, and salt. Cover the pot and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to low, and skim off and discard any foam. Simmer, partially covered, stirring occasionally, for 3 hours, or until the meat is mostly tender.
• Remove the beef shanks from the soup. Skim excess fat from the surface of the soup with a ladle or spoon. Remove the meat from the bones, cut it into small pieces, and add it back to the broth. Add the tomatoes, cabbage, green beans, potatoes, carrots, celery, Worcestershire sauce, and sugar, if using. Continue to simmer for about 45 minutes longer, or until the vegetables and meat are tender. Taste and adjust the seasonings.

BEEF SHANK SOUP WITH VEGETABLES

Steps:

• Brown the beef shanks in the olive oil until nice and browned. Add water and cook until the beef falls off of the bone and the marrow is cooked out of the center of the bones, about 3 hours.
• Strain the broth through several changes of wet paper towels to get rid of the icky little protein globs and fat. Remove meat from the bones, remove the fat and dice the meat.
• Wash the pot and add a little more olive oil and carrots, onion, celery and cabbage and cook on medium heat until they are beginning to color.
• Add the meat, stock, broth and the remaining veggies, barley and spices and cook on medium low for a couple of hours. Remove the bay leaf.
• Taste it to see if you need to adjust the salt or pepper. This holds nicely in a crock pot for hours.
