Lamb Shoulder....picture

thailandjohn · October 2012

I put these 2 lamb shoulders on at 11pm last night and cooked at 215 degrees for 9 hours then I raised the temp to 250 to finish to get the internal temp to 195 for pulled lamb shoulder http://i711.photobucket.com/albums/ww116/JohnPatterson/65fb4a7ebf34b3687fa9ecfd8e2e9da1.jpg

Fantastic - now I need to have a word with my butcher about getting some cuts like those. How did you prep it before it went on? I've been wanting to try a smoke and braise technique that a pub in London does really well.

:-bd Nicely done, John. Got anymore details or pics of the pulled lamb? What type of smoke would you suggest? Lamb isn't something I've tackled much.

Looks fantastic. I love lamb but the only cuts I can get are leg, rack, and chops. Going to have to somehow find a way to get a shoulder or two. How much did each shoulder weigh and how many do you think a shoulder will feed?

I saw Anthony Bourdain munching down on some of these in Australia on his show. It looked like his buddy and him took a whole shoulder down but you can't trust the magic of editing on tv.

I got the idea from the Bourdain show......at the office only one person did not care for the lamb..... Everyone else loved it.....I always tell people you don't have to be nice and tell me you like something when you don't, tell me what you really think I made a Kentucky mutton dip to go along with the lamb........for sure this is a keeper for me..... Each shoulder was around 6lbs and was seasoned all over with Kosher salt and pepper...... I will post pictures next time of the finished product..... Lamb is very rich in flavor so I think one shoulder should feed three people I picked this up at Restaurant Depot for a little over $2.00 lb

I only use Mesquite for my cooking and then add chips and chunks.......I added a lot of apple chips and cherry chunks

Very interesting John,

What sort of seasoning? Does it retain the lamb flavour?
