How about adding a little more information for the people that have bought your Breville fast/slow cooker.....such as time on the different settings rather than just push the button!
Recipe sounds great.
Hi Darryl, the Breville fast slow cooker setting for the lamb shoulder recipe is:
1 hour (60mins)on High Pressure - press the steam release button after cooking is complete.
regards Debbie
Hi Darryl, The written recipe above has the setting that Colin used. For the Fast Slow Pro you select the Pressure Cook-Casserole setting. Hope this helps.

would love a lot more recipes
Please provide more recipes for the slow cooker/pressure cooker
Thank You
Thanks for the recipe. Would like to know a little more on cooking time please. How about something like.. "Cook for 30mins per 1kg of shoulder" etc etc!
Dejar Sir/Madam: I love the new Breville Oven with the light and slow cooking capability. However, I have been searching at your site for more than 1 hour for a recipe to slow cook my dinner and I have not been able to find any recipes. My previous oven came with many more recipes than the new oven. I would love to be able to use the oven. I don't have space in muy literal Kitchen for the Fast/Slow Cooker. Would you please help me. Thank you, Anita
Hi Anita,
The slow braised lamb shoulder took 6hrs on HIGH in the BOV 845.
As it is a very large piece of meat on the bone (2kg) 6 hrs are required on High so that the meat becomes tender and falls off the bone. If you would like to reduce the cooking time to 4hrs, it’s advisable to cut the shoulder in half and probably use meat without the bone. Also, you will need to adjust the liquid to fill the dish to 3/4 (300-400ml) since to submerge the meat will fill to the rim. If you are unable to place a lid on the dutch oven, cover the lid with baking paper, then tightly cover with aluminium foil.
Most of the Breville Fast / Slow cooker recipes can be adapted to the BOV845 slow cook function.
Hope this helps.
Hi Anita, apologies for the late reply. We are currently testing the lamb recipe (meat on the bone) and a chicken recipe (no bone) as to the cooking times required in the BOV845 slow cooker. Kitchen test results will be provided next week. Thank you.
All the recipes in the previous BOV800 Smart oven will work in this upgraded model. In terms of additional recipes including those specifically for the slow cooker setting, we are working on that now and they should be available in the next 3 months
Hi, please leave more recipes .... they don't have to be from professional chefs!
ps. loving it.

What is the difference of putting the meat under water and using the stand provided that holds it out of the water.
Hi Lolo, in the Breville pressure cooker instruction book we recommend only using the trivet when steaming (e.g. dumplings) and cooking custards or cakes. These dishes should not sit in water or liquid. For casseroles we recommend the meat be immersed in the bowl sitting among all the other ingredients and liquid so it all comes together in a wonderful one-pot dish.

Hi I disagree with the amount of fluid you are being told to put in pressure cooker. I have been using a pressure cooker for over 30 years ( from very ordinary cookers to excellent on today's market). Rule of thumb for fluid is half the amount stated in recipes for oven or stove. Also depends on cooking time. Casseroles 1 cup fluid, large pieces of meat 2 - 2 1/2 cups. The food does not have to be completely covered in fluid. Enough fluid so as cooker won't run dry and it has never happened to me. Always slow release pressure for meat to keep tender.
