About Lamb, New Zealand, imported, hind-shank, separable lean and fat, cooked, braised
Hind-shank braised with lean and fat is a deeply satisfying cut that falls apart with enough time and low, moist heat.

The shank is essentially all connective tissue, bone, and hard-working muscle that transforms dramatically through hours of braising. Fat is moderate in the cooked result. Osso-buco-style preparations are the natural destination for this cut.
