Make Braised Lamb Shanks

I am not a Lamb cook so, no, I have not tried this recipe. But I try to share all types of recipes with you other cooks and readers out there. This is an old recipe I found in my late mother’s estate. I have no idea why she had it because no one in our family ate lamb. However, there is was on an old yellowed piece of paper. So for those of you who do enjoy lamb, here is a recipe for you: Old Fashion Braised Lamb Shanks.

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

2 tbsp brandy
1 cup chicken broth
1/4 tsp basil
1/4 tsp oregano

Garnish:

Slow Cooker Pork Soup

Have you ever made soup in your crockpot? Soup recipes are great for slow cooking because the crockpot cooks the ingredients slowly and all the flavors blend together perfectly. Vegetable soup recipes are great in the slow cooker and you can even make classic soups like a crockpot French onion soup recipe.

Pork soup might sound unusual and this dish is easy to make and will make a change from your usual dinner staples. Pork ribs can be combined with broth, vegetables, and seasonings to make a really flavorful soup. Most meats cook really well in the crockpot and pork is no exception. The meat will be incredibly tender.

Ideas for Pork Soup Recipes

Combine pork with apples, apple juice, and vegetables for a really flavorful pork soup. Pork and apples go together really well. You might like to make an Asian style pork soup, using pineapple, bell pepper, sugar, vinegar and more, for an authentic taste of Asia.
