Eater Sundae Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 As a kid in the late 50s, early 60s, I remember my mum always looking out the cheapest cuts. Breast of lamb (either boned, stuffed and rolled, or as chops), belly pork and, as a treat, shoulder of mutton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
