Lamb shoulder or neck should work similarly, just make sure it’s well marbled.

If this is the recipe I’m thinking of – where you pour some fat over the meat once it’s nestled in the pot, it doesn’t seem that far if from some kind of confit thing, so maybe google lamb leg confit for ideas? I agree with the other response that neck or shoulder would be closer so I wouldnt blindly try it with leg.

Just guessing, you might not get the crispiness with lamb that you will with pork.

I find lamb fat can be a bit unpleasant in flavour, personally.
