Shank ½ Leg

Twisted V Ranch Pasture-Raised Lamb Shank 1/2 Leg

Rich, Tender, and Perfect for Slow-Cooking

At Twisted V Ranch, our Pasture-Raised Lamb Shank 1/2 Leg is the ideal cut for creating hearty, slow-cooked meals that are bursting with flavor. Known for its rich, savory taste and tender texture, this cut is perfect for braising or roasting. When cooked low and slow, the meat becomes fall-off-the-bone tender, making it a favorite for stews, braises, and other comfort food recipes.

Our lambs are raised on open pastures, where they graze naturally and are free to roam. This natural lifestyle results in lamb that is not only flavorful but also nutrient-rich. Free from synthetic hormones, our lamb shanks offer a clean, wholesome product that you can feel good about serving to your family.

Why Our Lamb Shank 1/2 Leg Stands Out:

Pasture-Raised for Deep, Natural Flavor

Raised on open pastures, our lambs enjoy a diet of nutrient-rich grasses, which enhances the flavor of the meat. The shank 1/2 leg, cut from the lower leg portion, is known for its natural marbling and rich taste. When slow-cooked, this cut absorbs seasonings beautifully and delivers deep, comforting flavors.

Ideal for Slow-Cooking

The lamb shank is a tough cut that benefits from long, slow cooking methods such as braising or roasting. Cooking the shank 1/2 leg over low heat for several hours allows the connective tissue to break down, creating a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture. Whether you’re preparing a rustic lamb stew or a Mediterranean-inspired braise, this cut guarantees a delicious meal.

Ethically Raised, Hormone-Free Meat

Our lambs are raised naturally and without synthetic hormones or unnecessary additives. We believe in farming practices that prioritize the health of the animals and the environment, resulting in meat that is pure, natural, and packed with flavor.

Cooking Tips: Perfect for Braising and Slow Roasting

Our Lamb Shank 1/2 Leg is best when slow-cooked, allowing the rich flavors to develop fully. Here are some ideas on how to prepare this cut:

Braised Lamb Shank: Brown the lamb shank in olive oil, then braise it in red wine, stock, garlic, and herbs. Simmer it over low heat for 3-4 hours until the meat is tender and falling off the bone. Serve with mashed potatoes or polenta for a rich, flavorful meal.

Slow-Cooked Lamb Stew: Add the lamb shank to a slow cooker with vegetables, broth, and your favorite herbs. Let it cook for 6-8 hours for a hearty, tender stew that’s perfect for a cozy dinner.

Mediterranean Lamb Shank: Season the shank with garlic, rosemary, and lemon, and slow-roast it in the oven with root vegetables. This method brings out the natural flavors of the lamb and creates a beautifully caramelized exterior.
