    mmmm Lamb Chops

    Tonight's repast: Cajun spiced pan seared bone in Lamb shoulder chop with roasted Brussels sprouts (spiced with sea salt, pepper garlic, chipotle powder, brushed with olive oil).

    I love lamb----but my bride doesn't

    So I am reduced to eating it when alone. I also try very hard to source local lamb which is a bit older than the muted New Zealand lamb that is slaughtered at such a young age flavor has had little chance to develop.

    As a kid, in addition to the dairy heard we had a flock of sheep between 200 and 250. We ate a lot of lamb---and mutton.

    And for the sprouts---I commonly roast then cut side up with EVOO and balsamic vinegar drizzled over them.

    Condemnation by faint (absent) praise, which mimics my opinion of sheep flesh in all particulars.

    I love lamb any cut anytime. I buy my chops at Sam's Club or Costco usually 2-3 dollars a pound less than the grocery store. I like mine broiled and served with mint jelly and tabouli salad. Good stuff. TG that plate looks like some mighty good eatin'
