My Mother at Easter always invited the family over for an "Easter Feast" and indeed it always was. The 2 meat entrees were a baked ham and a leg of lamb....both were done to perfection. My Mother had a restaurant for many years and my Dad was a restaurant manager having "climbed the ladder" from cook to chef and then to manager.....this was before he was a precinct Captain of Police in Milw.
So our family loves lamb and in a few days some of the family will be arriving for a meal of American grown lamb which we prefer.
Greek style lamb chops, parslied red potatoes and carrots in a tarragon butter sauce will comprise the meal....along w/ a Greek salad. A good bakery white bread served warm rounds it off.
Have also taken legs of lamb on hunting trips and it's eaten cold....just cut what you want, put between good bakery bread and slather either mustard, creamed horseradish, mayo and salt and pepper and enjoy a feast. Leg of lamb is quite lean so is very enjoyable eating when cold.
Buying lamb can be difficult because many don't like it....so many stores don't stock lamb.
My source of lamb is surprisingly Walmart....whether it be the leg, shoulder chops or the loin cut chops, it's always excellent and the shoulder chops are cut up and made into stew.
All the lamb is American grown and is vacuum wrapped and is very reasonably priced. Shouldn't be revealing this source....there might be a price increase......Fred
