don't think i've ever had it. but sure would like to try. i've eaten goat before and loved it.

maybe if yoiu go to some fancy restaurant and order the lamb, you will be inclined to eat knowing that it has been prepared correctly.

mmmm...Jeruslem Garden! I like that resturant. I am suprised you can't find lamb in the groceries near you. The ones in my town have a small selection. They always have some roast and chops and even a rack or two of lamb.

Seriously I am going to have to buy a roast now...this thread has made me crave a good roast!

Morganton is kind of a hamburger and fries sort of town.

Hubby likes it,but I just am afraid to try it. I don't know why. It just seems so foreign. :help:

The same way I got over my fear of some of the crazy Jamaican dishes we eat......don't ask what it is. Just eat it. If you like it, then ask. If not, MAKE SURE to ask so you never eat it again.

Life's just a crazy ride on a run away train

You can't go back for what you've missed

So make it count, hold on tight find a way to make it right

You only get one trip

So make it good, make it last 'cause it all flies by so fast

You only get one trip

LOL :thumbs:

mmmm, I love me some lamb. I just found a lovely farmer at our organic farmer's market that only sells grass-fed lamb. It is AMAZING tasting, lean yet very yummy, and it's nice to know what they are eating as well....not being stuffed with who knows what. If you like lamb, you have to try lamb burgers. I made some greek-style ones, with tomato, lettuce & tzatziki sauce stuffed in a warm pita, with some feta potatoes on the side.... OH MY GOD... I'm hungry!

Lamb roast is YUM!

Lumb curries are real nice too, as well as mutton & goat! All good!

When Lamb is done wrong it does have a "smelly feet" smell to it..

I had a friend who had a Restaurant called "Out of Africa".. there were days when her lamb was amazing.. other day it STUNK BAD..

But had it in England with Mint Sauce.. My great Auntie ordered an entire gravy boat of it for me- and told me to dump the whole thing on my meal "the only way to eat lamb" she said..

It was out of this world amazing... droooll...

I'm still scared to cook it myself.. afraid i'll make the smelly feet kind of lamb.. :(:help:
