Alpaca Shanks – Slow cooked and delicious. Cooking with Alpaca @ Horn and Hoof Fine Dining, Voted Best European Restaurant 2022!

In the high Andes, Alpacas have been a saviour for the farmers in more ways than one!   Alpacas are the sheep industry of South America. 

Here at Horn and Hoof (one of the Best Restaurants in Docklands) , take these lovely shanks to the next level.

So, when a lamb shank is just not big enough.  Try our shanks!  They are are sourced from Mount Compass in South Australia and are about 20% bigger than lamb shanks,

with a darker, denser, and sweeter meat. 
Slow cooked for 9 hours, served with our own recipe for pickles and
covered with our own special Siberian cranberry sauce.

What does it taste like?? Alpaca is a mild red meat that is tender, extremely lean, and described by some as almost sweet. Its flavour, closest to beef without the fatty aftertaste.

Alpaca is a high protein, -fat healthy choice meat.
