Expertly boned and rolled by our team of butchers, Swaledale's Shoulder of Mutton is rich and flavoursome.

Chef George Ryle Inspires
"Requiring a long, gentle cook, this is a cut that delivers big on flavour; presenting many different avenues for your culinary imagination to explore. Partnering perfectly with spices, think along the lines of a classic ras el hanout rubbed generously over the joint before baking over chickpeas and tomatoes. Alternatively, similar spices but also apricots, almonds and a long, low roast for a variation on a tagine. Or a classic Indian tandoori marinade with spices, yoghurt, fresh ginger and fresh garlic; try exposing the shoulder to flames at the beginning of the cook, for that authentic flavour. For those with a soft spot for Jamaican goat curry, then this mutton offers a perfect alternative, with the natural flavour of the meat able to stand up to all those deep, earthy spices and scotch bonnets."

Great Taste® Judges’ Comments (2022)
"A very tender mutton roast which the judges were delighted by. The joint held together well when roasting. The flavour was balanced and not gamy."
