New Zealand lamb is internationally known for its superior quality and taste. Our New Zealand lamb takes it one step further: All year free-range open pasture-raised, grass-fed lambs. Free of growth-promoting hormones and subtherapeutic use of antibiotics. This is the finest lamb available. If you have never tried lamb or had a bad experience with lamb in the past we urge you to give New Zealand premium quality lamb a try. However, lamb shoulder is probably not what you want to begin with if you are new to lamb.
Our quality lamb shoulder comes without the bone and is ready for roasting. If you are unfamiliar or not used to the unique lamb flavor, we recommend cutting off as much fat as possible. This cut is made for slow cooking and braising. The best way to get it right is with a pressure cooker. All you need is olive oil, thyme, fresh ground pepper, sea salt, onions, garlic, peeled tomatoes, and chicken stock. We pressure cooked our piece for 1.5 hours and it was fork-tender and amazingly flavorful. Take a look below.
Our lamb comes from family-owned and operated farms and ranches in New Zealand only. Ethical raising has always been the cultural tradition in New Zealand. This lamb shoulder is incredibly tender and loaded with flavor. Simple to prepare and feeds a whole bunch. Find out more below.
