Yah boneless shank is one of the cuts we use to make Taiwanese beef noodle soup. It’s not the cross cut pieces of shank you see at western markets but more a long tubular piece that is usually wrapped in silver skin. When you cook it to death, it’s basically a cap of tendon over the meat, so you get some tendon and meat in a single bite. I’ve used it it bo kho before and works well.

Personally I don't find it very gamey, especially when compared to venison or lamb or goat. But yes it can get chewy when rare. I prefer it as such, but I've had it more cooked than this and it's just as delicious.
