Lamb can be quite tender if cooked correctly. It's a popular meat in Australia (lots of sheep, lots of mediterranean migrants).. i probably have it once a week in some form.
I've tried goat a couple of times.. find it kinda similar, a bit more gamey, a bit tougher.
Of late I have really been enjoying kangaroo as a bbq meat... environmentally friendly, very cheap, super lean and healthy. It tastes quite good.. a bit more gamey than beef and needs to be cooked rare because of how little fat it contains.
Crocodile is just weird.. kinda half way between chicken and seafood, not really a fan. |
Lamb leg roasts are awesome, so much flavour :crazy:
Roo is ok, but yeah like you said, it has to be cooked rare or it gets tough and really dry. |

The problem that I had with lamb is that the meat was tough and there was a lot of grisle and fat in the meat, and sometimes it was hard to eat. I liked the flavor of the meat, but I would imagine lamb would be good for a stew of some sort. $12 bucks for 3 chops? A little steep if you ask me.
Any other meats TA likes? I'm a fan of sausage, pork, beef, and chickens. Gimme some ideas next time I hit up the grocery! :p |

As with nearly any animal, there are good cuts and not so good cuts of meat. Generally you're right though, lamb is quite a fatty meat compared to beef.
Try some other cuts. Lamb cutlets are absolutely wicked, for example. Expect to shell out some $$$ though :sadgreen: |

best game meat ever = venison.
the fillets just melt in your mouth and they take on other flavours so well. |

a pic of the venison "cordon bleu" (stuffed with gorgonzola, charred arugula, and serrano ham, breaded in seasoned panko bread crumbs) in a port and maple syrup reduction that i made for a dinner party we had last month.

| i've only had it twice. once at an airport in alaska (a reindeer dog lol) and then my sister's husband hunts every year and he made a salami-like sausage from his venison and that was pretty tastey. it was the same way those pepperidge farm sausages things come. smoked right? |
