Veal Marrow Bones

Does anyone know where I can source veal marrow bones? I tried Granville Island and T&T to no avail. They did have beef bones but no veal bones at T&T.

    I've got a big veal marrow bone in my freezer that I got from Windsor Meats on Main St. I butchered it myself though from a whole vac-packed veal shank that I bought there.

      Try:
      Columbia Meat Market ( I've bought veal shank for osso bucco there with good marrow content)
      1655 Renfrew Street
      Vancouver, BC V5K 4C9
      (604) 253-2242

      The butchers at Windsor Meats on Main St. are also great and should be able to source them for you.

          I've purchased them at Columbus too. You can get nice veal there.
