  1. Pressure Cooker Thor's Hammer
    A rich, fall-off-the-bone beef shank, first browned in bloomed BlixSam spices, then pressure cooked in a flavour-packed beef stock until perfectly tender.
    🥣 Ingredients
    1 Beef Thor's Hammer (Beef Shank)
    2 tbsp olive oil
    2 tsp BlixSam Smoke Craft
    2 tsp BlixSam Steakhouse
    1 tsp BlixSam DAG 4
    2 beef stock cubes
    750 ml boiling water
    2 bay leaves
    Freshly ground black pepper (optional)
    👨‍🍳 Method
    Step 1 – Bloom the Spices
    Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-based pan over medium-high heat.
    Add:
    BlixSam Smoke Craft
    BlixSam Steakhouse
    BlixSam DAG 4
    Allow the spices to bloom in the oil for 30–60 seconds until fragrant.
    Step 2 – Brown the Meat
    Place the Thor's Hammer into the pan.
    Brown well on all sides, allowing the spices to form a rich, flavourful crust.
    Step 3 – Pressure Cook
    Transfer the browned beef to the pressure cooker.
    Pour in:
    750 ml boiling water
    2 beef stock cubes
    Bay leaves
    Pour any remaining spice and oil mixture from the pan into the pressure cooker.
    Seal and cook under pressure for 60–75 minutes, depending on the size of the beef shank.
    Allow the pressure to release naturally.
    Step 4 – Finish
    Carefully remove the meat from the pressure cooker.
    Spoon some of the rich cooking juices over the meat before serving.
    If desired, reduce the remaining liquid into a delicious gravy.
