Key Features
Ethically Raised: Sourced from lambs grazing on Nene Park’s wildflower-filled pastures.
Rich Flavour: The lamb’s natural diet results in well-marbled, flavourful meat.
Perfect for Slow Cooking: Best when slow-cooked, delivering tender, fall-off-the-bone lamb.

Cooking Tips
Preparation: Season the lamb shanks with salt, pepper, and your favourite herbs like rosemary and thyme.
Browning: In a hot pan, brown the lamb on all sides to seal in the flavours. This adds depth to the final dish.
Slow Cooking: For best results, place the browned lamb in a slow cooker or a casserole dish. Add stock, vegetables, and wine or tomato sauce. Then, cook on low heat for 6-8 hours, or in the oven at 160°C (140°C fan) for 3-4 hours until the meat is tender.
Serving Suggestions: Serve with mashed potatoes, roasted root vegetables, or a rich sauce for a perfect comforting meal.
These Lamb Shanks from Nene Park provide a comforting meal that’s full of rich flavours. The lambs, raised on pastures filled with grass and wildflowers, produce meat that’s naturally tender and marbled. When slow-cooked, the shanks become incredibly juicy, with the meat falling off the bone. Whether you’re making a classic lamb stew or a slow-braised dish, these shanks are the ideal choice. Plus, the ethical and sustainable farming practices mean you’re getting quality meat with a low environmental impact.
