For those of us who live thousands of miles away, the slow roast lamb shoulder is a great alternative and a recipe that will transport our taste buds to the 5-star hotel’s restaurant, which has a warm and inviting setting with equine-inspired design features, art deco lighting, and elegant seating. The menu offers a range of delicious dishes made with fresh ingredients, many of which are sourced locally or from the estate’s own gardens.
Like The Stables Brasserie and Bar’s menu offerings, this recipe is nothing short of delicious. The lamb is cooked to a tender, melt-in-your-mouth texture in the oven, infused with the rich flavors of rosemary, garlic, and red wine.

What’s more, the shoulder is one of the cheaper cuts of lamb, and this recipe will generously serve 4-6 people. You’ll love that you can put it in the oven early in the morning and forget about it for four hours. When it’s done, it will emerge moist and so tender that it just falls off the bone. You don’t even need to slice it; just pull it apart with two forks.

You can serve it with Colcannon Potatoes, a hearty winter dish made with Irish colcannon potatoes loaded with cabbage, bacon, and the best butter and cream you can find. Alternatively, you can serve it with Beer Cheese Macaroni, a creamy macaroni and cheese taken up a notch by tossing it in a homemade beer cheese. Or with with simple Roast Potatoes and Roast Root Vegetables.
