    Lots of veal calves are raised in crates in Europe. British pink veal has good welfare standards, though. The male calves are a byproduct of the dairy industry - if they're not raised for meat, most will be shot very young.

    Apparently it roasts fine - turned out really tender and tasty :D

    I have a veal brisket and want to make the most of it rather than just plain roasting. Any suggestions please?
