A richly flavoured, slow-cooking cut from North Yorkshire mutton, delivering deep, succulent taste with melting tenderness when braised or stewed.
Our Yorkshire Mutton Shank is the perfect cut for comfort food classics – packed with flavour that only comes from well-raised, mature sheep. Ideal for long, slow cooking to release its richness.
£11.75
Our Yorkshire Mutton Shank comes from carefully reared native sheep in North Yorkshire, sourced from trusted farms with a focus on traditional husbandry and natural grazing. Unlike lamb, mutton comes from older animals, which allows the meat to develop a fuller, more complex flavour and a denser texture – prized by chefs and food lovers for its depth of character.
About the Cut
The shank is taken from the lower leg, where hardworking muscles create rich, gelatinous meat that becomes meltingly tender when cooked slowly. Its natural marbling and connective tissue break down into silky juices, making it the ideal braising joint.
Cooking Methods
Slow-braise: Cook gently in stock, wine, or ale for 2–3 hours until the meat falls from the bone.
Stews & Casseroles: Adds depth and body to rich winter dishes.
Tagines & Curries: Pairs beautifully with bold spices, fruits, and herbs.
Nutritional Value & Health Benefits
Mutton is high in quality protein, B-vitamins (especially B12), zinc, and iron – nutrients essential for energy and immune function. Grass-fed Yorkshire mutton also has a favourable fatty acid profile, with a balance of omega-3s from natural pasture.
Why Choose Yorkshire Mutton?
By choosing our mutton, you’re supporting sustainable farming and helping preserve demand for this traditional meat, which plays a vital role in upland grazing systems. Mutton offers a unique eating experience – a more robust, heritage flavour that reflects Yorkshire’s landscapes and farming traditions.
