Lamb is so expensive now. Even worse since low and slow bbq took off over here. The shoulder and other cuts used to be cheap but now they are so much dearer.
Excellent price for boneless shoulder though. I think bone-in at woolies is around $12/kg and you lose a lot with the bone. Having said that I much prefer cooking meat on the bone.
I tried this lamb shoulder from Coles a few weeks back on the mini spit……. turned out delicious.
Yep, it's the BBQ trend that's done it. Bone-in shoulder is the go-to cut for pulled lamb so prices have really shot up.
Got really into the BBQ trend 2 years ago but I'm over it now with the cost of meat, going to get a Koda I think and go down the pizza rabbit hole, that's like $5 worth of ingredients vs $100+.
Is this Australia-wide? Didn't see it in the Sydney catalogue.
I've always used bone in banjo cut shoulder, is there much difference? I still do low and slow couple hours and same recipes as bone in lamb shoulders?
Yesterday these were reduced to 90% off! many packs gone in a heart beat in one Coles.
I've heard of these massive markdowns but never see them in any of the local Coles or Woolies. How do you find them?
yuck, coles meat
overpriced and pretty poor quality these days
The quality of the lamb is actually quite good ,the rolling of the lamb shoulder is where it is let down, all done under one roof by un-skilled labourers, not trimmed internally / externally. It's ashame as the lamb is actually quite good .
Where do you get your meat from?
not coles - Where do you get your meat from?
Wherever is most convenient/cheapest so anything from Colesworth, Aldi, Harris Farm or the Asian butcher .
@dust: I favour iga, farmer jacks and aldi these days as big chains, and some locals. Say hi to the cyberstalkers on the site…
@dust: naw didn't think you did - its the 2 exempted from all rules here - site just mirrors real life - one set of rules for ordinary folk, and a different set for the specials…
We rarely have lamb roast - bit of a change/treat. We were very disappointed with the last purchase from Coles. Just flavourless. We now go to a butchers. Yes, twice the price but given we do it twice(?) a year, its not gonna break the bank and we'll enjoy it!
Make a flavour full brine and soak lamb in it overnight.
chopped this up and made into a ragu on the weekend. worked well
So how to prepare and cook this right?
at a slow temperature, lamb is very forgiving. you will basically cook it until it falls apart.
if you have a spit, this would be ideal.
otherwise lamb shoulder works well on a low and slow bbq, or in an oven, or in a casserole etc..
What about seasoning?
I have a pressure cooker.
Salt, oil, rosemary, garlic.
Pressure cooker is going to cook at a super high temp.
Do it in an oven at like 100c.. pop it in at 9am for dinner.
Salt and pepper is all you need. Rosemary and garlic are also excellent.
@MuddyClear: Average oven is 10A these days, so 2.4kW max power drawer for 9hrs = 21.6kWh. Running at 100C I'd hazard a guess you'd be lucky to even use a quarter of the max power. So assuming 25% x 21.6kWh x $0.25/kWh (change based on whatever your tariff is) = $1.35.
So as you can see, even with conservative calculations it is an insignificant cost. If you have solar and cook during a sunny day, then the cost goes down massively….
People do things for Easter? i guess i'm not classy enough
For me it's usually just the Immediate family that get together for Lunch or Dinner :)
Saw this yesterday in SA. Didn't know how much of a bargain it was so walked over to the butcher @$26/kg.
