Organic Lamb Shank
A classic cut for slow-cooking succulence
Taken from the lower joint of the lamb's leg, organic lamb shank is a hearty cut with distinctive flavour and beautiful, flaking texture. Made up of the leg muscles and their connective tissue as well as the marrow-filled bone, lamb shank has everything going for it as far as deep, complex flavour goes. Just the right amount of fat balances out the meat, keeping it as juicy as can be. Slow cooking renders down all of the internal marbling and collagen to thicken the gravy and add yet more flavour.
At The Organic Butchery, our high welfare standards dominate how we organically rear our grass-fed lambs; we believe that the meat produced by active, healthy animals is tangibly better than that which comes from intensive systems.

Our organic sheep eat a natural diet of grass, along with the clovers and herbs that grow in our West Country meadows. Sheep have evolved to make the very best of a grass diet – when they're not grazing they'll be ruminating and chewing the cud to make sure they get every drop of nutrition. We don't feed our sheep cereals and concentrates because our organic pastures keep them in top condition. Browsing and grazing keep them fit and their muscles active, resulting in meat that has robust texture.

Organic lamb shanks need to cook long and low to bring out their best. So brown them off then pop them into a covered dish with shallots, carrots, a good splash of stock and some rich red wine or a hoppy ale (not too dark). Woody herbs with earthy tones such as thyme and rosemary will bring out the sweetness of the lamb. Cook in a low oven for, ooh, four hours and serve with garlicky mash or herby couscous. For an easy one-pot supper, throw a can of butter beans into the casserole half an hour before the cooking time's up.
