About Lamb, leg, whole (shank and sirloin), separable lean and fat, trimmed to 1/4" fat, choice, raw
Whole lamb leg, which includes both the shank and sirloin sections with fat left on at the quarter-inch trim, carries a mixed lean-and-fat profile raw. The ratio of muscle to fat gives it a richer energy density than the lean-only cuts. Lamb leg is one of the most common holiday and celebration roasts across Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and South Asian cuisines. Raw, the fat marbling throughout the sirloin end contrasts with the leaner, more sinewy shank, so different sections of the same leg will cook differently.
