Super easy, quick meal. Definitely best "roast" from a deer. This one was trimmed to fit in a six quart Instant Pot.

If you wanted to take it up a notch, brown it (another great Instant Pot feature) and flavor profile will improve and meat will stay together a little better.

These ages for 21 and 22 days, but it certainly isn't necessary. Season to taste and set on high pressure for 55 minutes. A little broth or water we'll help, but you don't need much. Ideally you can allow pressure to drop on its own, but I'd give it 10 minutes after it shuts off to start releasing pressure.

One of the least utilized cuts is actually the best in flavor and texture.

So you basically just cut the leg bone and cooked it as is?

That looks great!

That looks like the shank. It's one of the most under-appreciated cuts on any hooved animal.

Prolly dumb question,but, did you trim it to that ,or is that pullback from cooking? Looks yummy, hate to think how many of those I let the dogs chew on.
 
Nicely done! I need to give one a go like that as I'm usually braising them with onion and garlic and pulling them apart.

My absolute favorite is to cut them about 1/4-1/2 thick, "soup bone" style and briase.

On a side note, CWD has seriously cut into my shank stash.

Man I am new to shank roasts this year, but I LOVE them. I deboned my elk shanks and have them frozen whole. Problem with those is you need 6 or 7 people to eat it all!
