Boiling is one of the methods. Do you have an oven ? If you do I actually find this method a delicious way to cook them. You simply put them straight into a roasting pan from frozen, no need to thaw. Then cook for 1 hour and 10 minutes. I also place some baking paper in the pan first. Helps with easier clean up.

$15 2 shanks per box. Each one Vacuum packed separately. I run them under slightly warm water just long enough to loosen them, then snip the end off the vacuum packaging

Were they the Brannigans shanks in the meat section. (Not Freezer) I have found Brannigans great but cant find them often. Cant get through to Aldi to find out why.

No they are in the freezer, when you buy them empty the frozen shanks into pot and leave overnight. This is so when you get the frozen shanks out all of the gravy comes with it, the next day 4hrs before stick them on 150 fan not doesnt matter, cover to retain the moisture until you need them. They will be ready when you need them as the ovens not too high. One last thing, everybody does roasts in the middle of the oven.... just wrong do them at the bottom and the underside stays moist with a crispy top superb. I used to use dripping but as its doubled in price I don’t use that anymore and sometimes use the chicken fat that everyone throws away from the week before thats been in the fridge or lard. :-)

Can't remember sorry - Beerwah or Morayfield. Can ALDI itself not help here? Surely they have info on which stores offer which goods?!

I did not try to freeze them. and would never buy them again as they were awful tough and untasty. Waste of money.

Don't know whether they can be frozen, sorry. I have only kept them in the frige as per normal "use by". Perhaps ask the makers..

I purchased some Aldi cooked lamb shanks but threw the box out before freezing coz of space. Forgot to write down cooking instructions. How long do you boil them for?
