Instructions

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C).
In a bowl, mix garlic, both mustards, honey, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil to create the glaze.
Season the lamb shoulder generously with salt and pepper; rub half of the glaze over the meat.
Place the lamb in a roasting pan and cover tightly with foil.
Roast in the oven for about 4 hours until tender; baste occasionally with remaining glaze.
Remove foil in the last hour for browning; ensure internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63°C).
Let rest for 15-20 minutes before carving and serving.
