Lambs to the slaughter

Helped prepare the lambs for their journey to the butcher a couple of weeks ago and knew we would have to wait a few days for our share of the meat to arrive. It was a pleasant surprise when Keith arrived back and asked if we were interested in the livers and kidneys because he didn’t want them. Still warm when he dropped the bag in my hand! We had peppered liver for dinner and Riñones al la Jerez for the next day and still plenty of liver for the freezer. When the rest of the meat arrived we had nearly 10 kg of lamb in a variety of cuts. Guess we won’t be in the butchers for a while. Tried the chops first and they were tremendous – lovely sweet flavour. We had a roast shoulder on Sunday night and it was just as good – and as a bonus, plenty of leftovers for stovies tonight!
