"Perhaps it was the substitution I made, but my husband and I didn't like this recipe. I substituted Merlot for the Amarone. I don't think it was the wine, though. The lemon zest made everything slightly tangy and the next day, it was just acidic. After everything was cooked down, the zest was difficult to find to fish out. I ended up throwing away the leftovers. I have a great braised short rib recipe that reminded me of an osso buco and will use that recipe with the shanks next time. Oh well. I usually love Tyler's recipes, but this one wasn't for us.
