Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation Made Another Rack of Lamb

Now I want lamb.

Yes, I do that, too. Make a sauce out of the juices by adding red wine and broth, scrape, reduce, then add butter, stir, and pour over chops on the plate.

I have not done that yet....ventured into pan sauces.

Here you go. I've done this one a few times. Great.

Where do you folks buy lamb?

From Mary.

Middle Earth

she only had one and is sold out

not much meat "little"

I buy ours from a local, small scale hobby farmer. OPP is his day job !

I haven't seen lamb for sale for years. The last was clearance at Fort Dodge Walmart.

check the manger

Most every grocery store around me has an entire lamb section, just like they have a poultry and a beef section. They butcher it all in store, package it, and put it out. They will also custom butcher for you on request.

I've had that dish in French restaurants before, too, and love it.

I like lamb occasionally, but like you I much prefer beef or pork. On one of my safari's the PH was a cattle rancher on top of the big game hunting operation. We had wild game almost every meal, but the last night they roasted lamb over an open fire. Well I'm guessing it wasn't a lamb, but more like an old dry ewe. It was horrible!

Fortunately the cook had also made Impala roast, so all was not lost. The PH's family was raving about how good the "lamb" was and their oldest son asked us if we ate a lot of lamb to which I responded "no". He then asked me why with kind of a puzzled look on his face and I told him "because we have beef and pork".

I heard she has some fleece that's white as snow for sale though.

wabi,

I've been told our local auction yard has them on the block every year. Not sure what time of year though. I've thought about getting one to fatten up and maybe butcher it myself or bring it 80 miles to the custom butcher over the line in Oregon.

the lamb's missing a leg and is not sure to go

Lamb is, sadly one of the foods that I mostly enjoy alone. I don't need much.

Not sure why lamb and hogget is not for sale.
