Red Wine Braised Pastured Lamb Shanks
Pastured lamb shanks braised low and slow in red wine and herbs until the meat falls off the bone.
A classic shepherd's pie of savory pastured ground lamb and vegetables under fluffy mashed potatoes.

Pastured lamb is lean and full-flavored — a marinade seasons it through, adds moisture, and its acid gently tenderizes the meat while mellowing lamb's natural richness. It makes an especially big difference before grilling chops, steaks, or kebabs.

Stir in the tomato paste and stock and simmer until thickened; add the peas.
