Leg of Lamb
Bone-in, Tunis or Dorset Horn
The lamb leg is popular year round as a centerpiece or cut into sandwiches due to its dark, melt-in-your-mouth meat and meat-to-bone ratio. 100% Heritage breed lamb is a marvelous gastronomic pleasure and much milder and more pleasant to the palate than regularly available lamb.
Our lamb is sourced from our long time farm partners in Vermont, Tamarack Sheep Farm, where three rare breeds of lamb are raised on pasture — breeds that have been raised there since the 1920s. Lamb is a seasonal livestock that is available four or five times a year.
- 100% Heritage breeds raised on pasture and 100% antibiotic free
- Raised by Ben Machin and Grace Bowmer of Tamarack Sheep Farm in Vermont
- Heritage lamb has tremendous marbling resulting in a more tender, exquisite, and juicy meat
3. Add the english peas and stock to the pan and bring to a boil. Add butter swirling to emulsify, toss together with pasta, and top with freshly picked mint and grated Parmigiano Reggiano.
