Our packs of lamb or “hogget” because it will be around a year old to get optimum taste without being tough” are exactly half a lamb each.
Two halves, therefore, make a whole lamb and so is better value for money as we do not charge twice the price.
Half a lamb (approx. 8 – 10kg) consists of:
Leg | approx. 3kg with bone in and ours is halved to make two roasts |
Chops | Usually 14, approx. 1.5kg |
Shoulder | Approx 1.75kg with bone out The remainder is the flank (for soups or spare ribs), a kidney, some liver and bones (good for stock or treats for dogs!) |
Cost for Half Lamb | £95 |
Whole lamb (approx 17- 20kg) £180
If fresh (not frozen) we can usually cut differently to your requirements:
e.g. the leg could be left whole, the chops/loin could be a “rack” or in fillets (no Bone) and the shoulder could be whole (with bone) or even diced (for stews).
