  1. 5 cups of flour? is that right?
    I want to try this, but the flour amount seems more correct for making dumplings than jsut coating the shanks.
    Has anyone tried it?

  2. Cooked this on the weekend. Followed the recipe exactly … had it on the ozpig for 4 hours. This will be the only recipe I ever use in the future as they were the best tasting shanks I have ever had. Cooked for 8 people they were all raving about them! Awesome food, thanks guys.
