As for my first choose? All the time the 12 hour lamb shoulder for succulent meat and a wealthy flavour that’s superior to leg, plus it’s re-heatable. I usually roast it in disposable foil trays for transporting comfort. To reheat, I’ll do it coated within the oven if time permits, else I’ll pop it within the microwave (YES I DO!) If I’m quick on time to cook dinner, I’ll do the three hour roast model of the shoulder. And if I’m actually quick on prep time, I’ll do the 5 minute prep Massaman Shoulder, which I truly simply did for a lunch final weekend for that precise cause.

When an event requires a carving second or the place I would like one giant roast to serve 10 individuals although, I’ll do a basic Roast Lamb Leg with all of the trimmings. I do love lamb leg!
