FAQS About Lamb Meat<\/h1>\n\n\n\nWhat is the Difference Between Lamb and Mutton?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
A lamb is a baby sheep under one year of age. When the meat is processed early on, between 4 and 5 months, it is a tender lamb meat that is lighter in color and retains a true lamb meat flavor. When lambs are processed after that time, their meat takes on different characteristics. The meat of an adult sheep, age 2 years and older, is referred to as mutton<\/em>. It is a darker meat, less tender than lamb, and retains a gamier flavor. In Southeast Asia<\/a>, the term mutton<\/em> is also used to describe goat\u2019s meat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Not only is lamb readily available and easy to prepare, but it is also widely versatile! It can be marinated, seasoned, and cooked in an infinite number of ways, making it a convenient substitute for almost any chicken, pork, fish, or beef dish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Many people wrongly assume that lamb meat is seasonal. Lamb meat is available all year long, in every season. You can purchase lamb meat from your neighborhood butcher, grocery store, or even a local lamb farm.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lamb is priced similarly to beef and pork cuts but is still an economical dinner selection. The more inexpensive cuts of lamb tend to be shoulder chops, stew meat (kabobs), and ground lamb. These cuts usually retail below ten dollars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This depends on the type of leg roast. A standard, American bone-in lamb leg weighs an average of 8 to 10 pounds. This is a large amount and can easily feed a group of 16 or more. A standard, American boneless lamb leg weighs an average of 6 to 9 pounds. This is a large amount and can easily feed a family of 18 or more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Lamb meat can be a part of a nutritious and sensible diet. Lamb is rich in nutrients and meets all the FDA requirements for lean meat. A 3 ounce portion contains an average of 175 calories or less and provides more than quadruple the amount of essential omega-3 fatty and alpha-linolenic acids compared to a similar portion of beef.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Are you looking for professional event and party caterers who can optimize your Holiday menu? <\/strong>If so, contact Food for Thought Catering<\/a> at 678-340-0510 to learn how our Atlanta, GA caterers<\/a> can deliver exceptional small or large group catering<\/a> at the most competitive prices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Related Posts:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Nutritional Facts About Lamb Meat<\/a> Are you tired of ordering the same, predictable turkey, chicken, and beef dishes for your Holiday parties every year?
