anyone got a wonderful quick easy recipe to make the meat fall off the bones. I am doing them tomorrow so have time to get the ingredients. Any suggestions?

I normally coat them with rosemary then put them in a casserole dish with about 1/2 - 3/4 pint of Lamb stock and cover for about 3 hours. on 160-170 c. checking they don't dry out.

quick isn't in it
the meat is tough and needs to be braised over time.

when I say quick I meant quick to prepare. I wish I had a slow cooker. those recipes sound tasty and yes will serve with mash to soak up all those juices. Mmm am salivating as I type.

i have a diffuser thing for on my hob which takes the temp down considerably for long slow cooking if you don't want to use your oven.
