Steps:
- Combine lamb shanks, Port or wine, and garlic in a skillet just large enough to hold shanks. Turn heat to high and bring to a boil; cover and adjust heat so that the mixture simmers gently. Cook, turning about every 30 minutes, until shanks are tender and a lovely mahogany color, at least 2 hours and more likely longer.
- Remove shanks and strain the sauce. If time allows, refrigerate both, separately; skim fat from top of sauce. Preheat a charcoal or gas grill or the broiler; the rack should be 4 to 6 inches from the heat source, and the fire hot.
- Grill or broil shanks until nicely browned all over, sprinkling them with salt and pepper and turning as necessary; total cooking time will be about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, reheat the sauce gently; season it with salt and pepper, then add vinegar or lemon juice. Taste and add more seasoning if needed. Serve shanks with sauce.
