Schreiner's Baked Lamb Shanks Recipe

Schreiner's Baked Lamb Shanks Recipe Rating 5

This recipe has been on the menu for decades. I started working for Bernard Schreiner as a busboy 29 years ago, and baked lamb shanks were a favorite then, too. The recipe was passed down from his mother. We feature comfort foods made from scratch.—Dale Grantman, Des Moines, Iowa

I have made this one for years and everyone loves it. Have tried several more complicated recipes and they are no better, some times worse

I'm looking for a lamb shank recipe where lamb is baked in a paper bag. Does anyone have such a recipe?
