Jfood found a base recipe on line a few weeks ago but has not had the time to cook or figure the soft underbelly yet. But he thicks the braising liquid should have enough self-esteem to handle lamb. Someone mentioned they thought there was too much sugar in step 1. Given the deeper flavor of lamb versus beef (even short ribs) this may be something to think about. let us know if you try it.
