The main meat was spring lamb...

The only NZ lamb I've had is frozen. The best lamb - bar none - anywhere in the world (including throughout NA and Europe) is right here in Iowa with fresh Iowa lamb. A local chain has the best meat department I've ever experienced and my oven produces fantastic leg o'lamb.

For a pretty please, I'll share the recipe...

we used to eat our own

spring lamb that is...

Dad would slaughter one and give half to a friend...

the other half was cut up into the roast for Christmas, chops, etc...

We had lamb or mutton about 4 times a week...

Lamb should not cost asd much as it does in the US...

sheep are much cheaper to raise than cattle...

the gestation period is much short6er, they are ready to slaughter sooner etc...

less fat better for you than beef...

though we need beef too...

Just dont put garlic on it and cook it well done...

Makes lovely gravy..

Mint Sauce, new potatoes and fresh peas..

YUM

(Of course since it was summer the mint, potatoes and peas were from Dads garden...)

I use to get a Leg of Lamb for Easter here but theyre hard to come by...

I’ll cautiously pretty please for the recipe you use...

Dang!

If the MORMONs REALLY follow the WoW, then in the SOUTHERN hemisphere they wouldn't be eating meat in the warm weather, while those in the North could be!

I'm SO confused!!!!
