So, I'm not a big fan of lamb, but my husband smoked lamb shanks today (for one of his Easter newsletters), and I have to say--they're pretty awesome. :)

My lunch: Smoked Lamb Shanks with Petite Vegetables and Arugula Salad. YUMMMMMM!!!!

Jeff's camera takes great pictures. It's a CanonT-something. I get credit for arranging the plate! :D

They're baby potatoes. :D I thought yukon or red babies would have been just as good taste-wise, but the carrots were my favorite veggie anyway. Jeff picked out the purple [blue?] potatoes for color.

They look like dyed sweet potatoes. :heeheehee I don't think I could have eaten them. A little worse looking than Green Eggs and Ham. LOL!

The salad looked great! :thumbsup

If we ever have an AFF banquet, I know who should cater it!
I am on his newsletter and it has inspired several meals.

Actually, there is an old Amish trick where you can remove one leg at a time without killing the lamb.

It sounds gross, but actually works quite well if you have no refrigeration and plan to eat the entire sheep in a few weeks.

So, Mary's little lamb is called Tripod after the first leg is removed? :heeheehee

It's not as bad as it sounds... though it will need help maneuvering to fresh grass after the third leg is removed. Diesel fuel is used as disinfectant and as a numbing agent.

If you are in a hurry to eat the rest of it, you could just thump a match. :toofunny

Seriously, that is a beautiful plate!

For a long time I could not eat lamb. No matter how nice the eating joint in my mind I would always smell the "billy goat" pen!

Grandma Chambers always fixed the leg of lamb at Christmas... and I pretended to like it very much until I married Kristin! LOL! Then I told her what I thought and she could not eat it either!

Now 20 yrs later, we order rack of lamb at times.:thumbsup

True. :highfive But that is defeating the (natural preservative) purpose isn't it?

That's the very reason I can't stand to eat goat or drink goat's milk. It took me FOREVER to develop a taste for goat cheese, but I can handle it now if it's good quality. You may as well walk into the pen and take a bite out of a goat! :blink It smells and tastes like, well, goat.

EXACTLY. We do eat goat cheese now too, but it's a developed taste.

But the milk I could never handle. I threw up more than once when my siblings tricked me to drink it. We always had goats that we milked for the babies. It was supposed to be more tolerant. It sure was not for me!

Don't eat pork on a farm that raises hogs, either. Outside. Trust me. Bad idea. :lol
