We attended a wedding a short while back. The caterers served lamb. It might well have been off a sheep. But I'm sure it was never intended to be taken orally. I swear the pieces on my plate had come straight from the tannery. I've had shoes with soles less robust than those slices of meat. Anyway, about this dish. The shoulder. My favourite cut of lamb. Hands down. Always buy it on the bone, not in those silly rolls with elasticised string around them. And ask for it with the shank still attached. There'll ALWAYS be someone at the table who'll want the shank. Another of those set and forget meals. Braised with other goodies at about 140C for 4 hours. Proper food.
