Lamb shanks are the portion of meat around the leg bone right beneath the knee. It comes from a harder working part of the animal so you'll need to either give it a nice long, slow roast, or braise it. Braised in red wine and stock with a few woody herbs thrown in, the meat will then be so tender it'll fall right off the bone and melt in your mouth. 

Our lamb comes direct to us from Jimba Premium Lamb in Australia, fresh, never frozen and is unbeatable in terms of quality, freshness and taste.  Lambs graze on natural Australian grasslands throughout their lives. They are 100% grass-fed, pasture-raised, and free of artificial additives and hormone growth promotants—a pure product of a pure environment.
