Pro tip: For a Middle Eastern twist, cook with tomato, cinnamon, cumin, and chickpeas.

Best Cooking Methods for Shank

Our King Henry Lamb Shank 500g, known for its bone-in form, offers a rich flavour that is ideal for various cooking methods. Slow cooking enhances the tender texture, while careful heat management ensures the meaty lamb shank remains succulent.

Pan Sear: Start with medium-high heat to sear our lamb shank, locking in flavours before slow cooking to tenderness.

Grill: Use medium heat, ensuring the lamb shank cooks evenly. Turn occasionally to achieve a fall-off-the-bone finish.

BBQ: Maintain a consistent low temperature for a rich, smoky flavour. Rest our lamb shank afterwards to allow juices to redistribute.

Oven: Preheat to a moderate temperature, slow roast our lamb shank for a tender result. Allow resting before serving to taste.
