Ingredients
• 2 veal shanks
• 16 bacon strips
• 300 ml teriyaki sauce
• 400 ml pineapple juice
• Salt
• Pepper
preparation
➊ Trim the veal shanks, season coarsely with salt and pepper and marinate in a freezer bag in the pineapple juice overnight in the fridge. The next day, take the veal shanks out of the fridge, dab them with a kitchen towel and allow them to reach room temperature until grilling.
➋ Weave a net out of the bacon by laying out 8 strips of bacon next to each other. Leave one strip of bacon free for each strip. Lay the remaining strips of bacon across and weave them into a net.
➌ Inject some teriyaki sauce into the knuckles, massage gently and let rest for about 30 minutes.
➍ Then wrap in the bacon net and place in the preheated smoker with the "seam" facing downwards. Cook for approx. 1 ½ hours at 160 °C. 30 minutes before the end of the cooking time, coat the knuckles with the remaining teriyaki sauce.
