The little-known secret of a tasty leg of lamb

I bet most of you won’t know this…

Every leg of lamb comes with a little something special – a gland that sits in the shank end of the leg between the bottom round and the eye of the round. 

The gland is embedded in a little chunk of suet (fat) inside the leg. Unless you’ve taken a butchering course, it’s unlikely that you’ll find it … and you certainly won’t know about it.

This gland should be removed before you cook the leg.
