    Looks great! Mind sharing your process there?

    Those look great! How did they come out?

    The routine I’ve settled on is to smoke them until they start to pull back – about 165°F/74°C. Then I put them in an Instant Pot on a trivet and add 1C/0.25L water and cook on high pressure for 20 minutes. They come out falling off the bone.

    I used to submerge in liquid in the IP but that leaches a lot of the flavor away. The resulting liquid is good for soups and stuff like Lentils but I prefer the flavor in the meat. I also do lamb steaks like this. Lamb Chops get grilled and eaten rare. (Goat chops as well.)

    I’m curious how yours came out.

    And I can’t help but think of all of those poor little lambs trying to run around the fields w/out their shanks. 🙁
