About

Now, working on the other forequarter, let’s lay this on the cutting board and begin breaking it down. First, locate the joint between the shin and the shank.

Begin cutting through the flesh between the shank from the arm bone.

Putting pressure on the bottom of the shank will help release the socket from the joint.

While cutting, move the shank back and forth, and it will come right off.
