RecipeToday we’re making the ultimate Carnivore French Dip sandwich, and the secret ingredient is a cheap cut of beef most people overlook: beef shank.
Slow braised until it’s so tender you can smash it with a spoon, this beef shank turns into insanely rich, juicy meat that’s perfect for piling onto a sandwich. The best part? As the beef braises, it creates a deep, flavorful au jus right in the Dutch oven, so dipping the sandwich is next-level good.
If you’re eating carnivore, keto, or low carb, this is a powerful way to turn a tough cut of beef into one of the most satisfying meat sandwiches you’ll ever have.
In this video I’ll show you exactly how to:
• braise beef shank until spoon-tender
• build the ultimate carnivore French dip sandwich
• use the natural braising liquid as incredible au jus
• turn an inexpensive cut of meat into restaurant-level flavor
This might honestly be the juiciest carnivore sandwich I’ve ever made.

I had a feeling you were going to say osso buco!! So tasty!🤷♀️👌🥩
You shouldn't put cook beef back on same plate you had the raw meat youre contaminating it you could get sick!
Another tasty dish!
Looks great ❤
Looks amazing🎉🎉🎉
Yum 😋 This was SO good! 😋
Looks good!
I made this French dip with braised beef shank and it turned out insanely tender.
What cut of beef would YOU use for a French dip sandwich?
Chris, Ash and Mel. Good morning. Great technique. Thank you for this video.
Dear Chris, just dropping by to say hi and to comment that I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the music to this video, it is DA B0MB! Do you have it available for purchase anywhere, perchance?
If you do shank in the sous vide and pour the juices into a mason jar after its pure collagen.
That looks awesome. I will be making it soon!
I never have known them as Osso Bucco. We get them from our butcher as soup bones but it’s the same size. I love to take the marrow and use an immersion blender to blend it up in my sauce. Sooooo good!
You're amazing!
I'd call this more Italian Beef or pot roast po' boy than French dip, but that ain't a bad thing! Nice way to get the meat and the gravy from one cut. 😋
Awesome
