If roasting, put in a oven bag with some rosemary. If slow cooking rub with oil crushed garlic s/p brown in hot frying pan into S/C drizzle of balsamic vinegar OR mint sauce whatever you like over, them lid on cook make gravy out of yummy juices.Either way.

I use slow cooker, roll in seasoned flour, then brown them in a little oil, transfer to slow cooker, adding onion, chunky cut carrots and parsnips, mushrooms, red wine, and stock or water, cook 6-7 hours on slow, they are so tasty and the meat just falls off the bone.
