Now one of the most popular cuts of New Zealanders. Shanks are definitely a colder weather favourite. Lamb Shanks are a cut that is located between the knee joint and the leg of a lamb. Shanks are a delicious cut, with a rich flavour - to get their full potential we recommended slow cooking them which will result in a tender cut of lamb.

Hard to believe as a farmer we used to feed these to the farm dogs. 

Osso Bucco is a cut that translated from Italian is “bone with hole”. Osso Bucco is taken from the shin of a beast and cut into a fillet. It is one of the most underrated cuts of beef but is full of flavour and deliciously tender when cooked low and slow. 

Beef Cheeks are the cheek muscle of a beast, it’s a well-used muscle which means that it’s best if you cook these for a long time but slowly to make the cut more tender. A perfect winter meal, this cut is perfect to put in the slow cooker as it absorbs liquid well. Beef cheeks are one cut that is not our own.
