Having tried both recently I found the leg to be a far better cut of meat with more flavour and less fat to mess about with.

The leg coated with garlic butter and gravy was superb :)
 
If you prefer leg, you haven't done shoulder properly;)

All the flavours in the fat so you have to slow cook it. Cut some incisions in it and stuff them with rosemary, that's all you need along with seasoning and olive oil.

I did slow cook the shoulder just before xmas and also stuffed it with garlic etc, I just found it was very fatty but not in a good way :(

Will perhaps try again if I see it on offer when shopping.
