    Cut off the shank from the shoulder and use only the meaty part. Mix thyme (leaves from two sprigs), salt, pepper, and 5 cloves of garlic pressed. Rub the shoulder with this mixture, place it in a tray, cover with foil, and let it marinate for about 1 hour.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Thyme: 1 bunch
    2. Salt:  to taste
    3. Ground black pepper:  to taste
    4. Garlic: 25 g

    After an hour, remove the foil, completely coat the spatula with vegetable oil, and place it in a preheated oven at 90 degrees for 8 hours.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Vegetable oil: 3 l

    Peel the potatoes (young potatoes can be left unpeeled) and cut them into large pieces. Leave the peeled carrot whole (set one carrot aside for the sauce), or cut it in half if it's not very large.

    1. Potato: 200 g
    2. Carrot: 150 g

    1. Rosemary: 1 bunch
    2. Thyme: 1 bunch

    Add peeled tomatoes, a sprig of thyme and rosemary to the pot, pour in 2 liters of water and let it simmer on low heat under a lid for about 7 hours. To simplify the process, you can use ready-made demi-glace sauce as a meat base by diluting it with water in the proportion indicated on the label and adding sautéed vegetables, tomatoes, and spices. After cooking, strain the sauce.

    Required ingredients:
    1. Pelati (whole peeled tomatoes): 350 g
    2. Rosemary: 1 bunch
    3. Thyme: 1 bunch
    4. Water: 2 l

    Slightly drizzle the baked shoulder with the meat sauce and return it to the preheated oven at 200 degrees for 14 minutes to achieve a glossy crust.
