That looks great! I love Osso Bucco, but I have never egg'd them. I am sure the smokey flavor from the meat added a nice extra treat!

Thanks, yes smoke flavor nice. Hubby thought strong until I reminded him it was Buffalo :laugh: MUCH LESS WORK then the dusting/frying/sauteing of traditionally prepared :woohoo: texture and "sauce" very different then family favorite recipe....debated on using red wine but boy home and would have turned up nose ; did add a small can of Fire Roasted Tomatoes before foiling...overall, very good; will try again with red wine :evil:
