Lamb Shank, Bone-In, Raw
Lamb shank is a flavorful cut taken from the lower portion of the leg, containing a central bone surrounded by well-exercised muscle tissue. This cut is characterized by its rich marbling and substantial connective tissue, which requires slow cooking methods to achieve tenderness. Raw lamb shank is deep pink to red in color and provides an excellent source of protein, B vitamins, and minerals like iron and zinc.
