Beef Shank, about 4 lbs with bone. Cut 3 inches thick

God, you can do quite a bit with that...braze it, slow cook it, smoke it... it all depends on your time and ability.

Maybe I should make Osso Buco

I was going to suggest that, but it seems like it's the thing "everyone is doing"...

I'd slow cook it outside, but that's me.

ground beef, onions, worchestershire, ketchup, brown sugar. Broccoli, if you're ambitious.
It's the simplest thing ever.

I forgot the egg. This is a good one though.

I went a different way, not traditional at all.

egg
saltines
onion powder
garlic powder
sage
marjoram

mixed it all then packed it and covered it with Montreal Steak seasoning

Then I made a light cheese sauce, over a toasted bun and meatloaf. Kind of a cheeseburger meatloaf.

Not really in my wheelhouse.
No one makes meatloaf here.
If I had a bit of shank I'd dice it up and make steak and ale pie. Slow cook it for two or three hours with onion, celery and carrot with a nice dark ale or Guinness.
Nice bit of shortcrust pastry made with half butter, half lard and Bob's your uncle.

Meat mix:
400gr minced meat (50/50 pork, beef is best)
4 TBL breadcrumbs
1 TBL potato starch
2 dl milk
1 tsp salt
1 tsp oregano
1 egg
1 ml pepper
2 TBL finely chopped onion. Lightly fried

Mix breadcrumbs, potato starch and milk. Let it sit for at least 10 min. Put in meat and salt and mix well. Add egg, pepper, oregano and onion and make sure it is well mixed. Don't work too much, that will make it rubbery.

More ingredients:
8-10 potatoes
2-3 onions
3-4 carrots
3 dl beef stock
2 TBL melted butter
1 TBL soy sauce
parsley

Set the oven at 480°F. Put the meat mix on a large ovenproof plate and form it into a chubby loaf. Peel potatoes, onions and carrots. Cut potatoes and onions into wedges, and slice the carrots thinly. Boil the carrots and onion in the stock for 5 min. pick them up, but keep the stock.
Put the potatoes, onions and carrots around the meatloaf. Brush everything with a mix of butter and soy sauce.
Put the plate in the middle of the oven, lower the heat to 350°F and cook for 1 hr. Spoon it with 1-1½ dl of stock after half the time.
Sprinkle with parsley and serve from the dish.
Enjoy.

Lightly fried... LOL. You can't tame us savages. Ground Beef ball and some crackers with ketchup. Same Same.
