Lamb chops

I wasn't sure how to cook lamb chops, so I thought I would treat them with my favorite (well, only) recipe for pork chops.
  • Dry the chops, cut the outside band of fat/connective tissue in a couple places (to keep the chops from cupping as they cook).  
  • Brush with oil. 
  • Dust with roasting salt. 
  • Dust one side with a little white sugar (to get some nice browning). 
  • Cook the sugared side over medium heat until browned (about 3.5 minutes in this case). 
  •  Flip, cover, turn heat to med-low and cook until internal temp is 140. (Just a few more minutes)
  •  Put into a 200 degree oven until ready to serve. 
  •  Deglaze the pan (I used a little chicken broth which created a nice delicate sauce).

Signing up for a Meat CSA

I'm defrosting the freezer right now so we can stock up on the summer harvest. And so we can get some more meat.

We are soon going to get our first box from Deck Family Farms with:

  • 10lbs of Grass fed beef; 50% ground, 12% steaks, 38% everything else; ribs, roasts, stir-fry, & stew
  • 5lbs of Pasture Raised Pork; bacon, sausages, shoulder, chops, ham.
  • 2lbs of Pasture Raised Spring Lamb
  • 8lbs of Pasture Raised No Soy! Roasters
  • 1 dozen eggs
Looking forward to the variety.
Need to figure out what to do with lamb...
