Tripod-Roasted Leg of Lamb:

Heavy Table (9/26/2016)

Lamb leg roasted tripod pit
Lamb leg roasted tripod fire pit

This recipe features a leg of lamb roasted on a tripod over an outdoor fire pit. The fire pit can be easily constructed. Ideally, the pit will be one to two feet deep with earth or other sides to keep in the heat. Build a large fire of hardwood and charcoal. The smoke from fruit wood, such as apple or cherry, will add additional flavor.

Continue feeding the fire for about three hours before cooking, so that you develop a deep bed of hot, glowing embers.

The leg should be basted about every 15 minutes throughout the cooking process. The surface should not be allowed to burn while it develops a consistently dark, rich glaze. Alternately, the lamb leg can be slowly roasted in the oven. Full Recipe

July Volunteer of the Month:

Winrock International (7/31/2015)

Farmer to Farmer Assignment in Mali
Farmer to Farmer Assignment in Mali

One of the strengths and benefits of the USAID Farmer-to-Farmer (F2F) Program is that the volunteers and local host organizations often develop and maintain strong relationships long after the volunteer assignment ends. Our July Volunteer of the Month, Judy Moses, is a wonderful example of this.

 

Judy, a member of the Browse & Grass Growers Cooperative in Wisconsin, has volunteered with Winrock six times since 2010, supporting a few different farmers associations in Mali and Guinea. On subsequent trips to the same country, she builds in time to check in on her previous host organizations, and over the years she has formed a deep mutual respect and friendship with both her beneficiaries and the local Winrock staff. As a result of these connections and a deep commitment to improving the lives of African farmers, Judy recently won a small grant award with the Browse and Grass Growers Cooperative to manage her own Farmer-to-Farmer program in Mali. We asked Judy to reflect on her prior experiences as a F2F volunteer. She shares her thoughts in this article.

 

Lamb Loin Roast: Herbed and Rolled:

Heavy Table (2/5/2016)

Grilled Loin Roast

The lamb loin, also called a saddle, contains meat from the three most prized cuts, equivalent to the T-bone, porterhouse and tenderloin in beef. The famous tenderloin lies protected under the backbone and is a very small strip. The loin meats are delicately marbled, with an elegant flavor that brings a note of luxury to any meal.

The fat of grass fed lambs should taste clean and fresh. In this recipe, the backbone will be removed (see steps in video) leaving the meat to be rolled and tied before grilling. The result is a very tender roast, easy to carve and with a minimal amount of fat. With no bones and a nice cylindrical shape, can be easily sliced into medallions and served. It is perfect to enhance a special occasion.

Holiday Leg of Goat:

Heavy Table (12/2/2015)

Holiday Leg of GoatThis recipe, provided by chef Geoffrey Blythe using Shepherd Song’s goat meat, practically guarantees tender and delectable results, with the mild flavor of the meat enhanced, but not overpowered, by the marinade and rub.

Why try goat meat? Environmentally, goats move gently across the earth while delicately browsing. They do not adapt well to factory farm environments, so meat goats are seldom if ever raised using intensive and medicated methods.

Similar to deer, goats thrive on brush; they browse, turning foods humans cannot digest into valuable protein from meat and milk. The meat of young goats is delicate and succulent without the stronger flavors of venison or the fat layers of lamb. Goats have readily adapted to a variety of environments from deserts to tropics to highlands. Full recipe. Featured in Heavy Table Online Magazine.

Lambs, Pumpkins, Apples, and Turnips — not a recipe!:

Heavy Table (11/9/2012)

Sheep in the Pumpkin Patch
Sheep in the Pumpkin Patch

Have you ever wondered where all the pumpkins go after Halloween? The lambs, sheep, and goats at Shepherd Song welcome leftover pumpkins; big, small, or broken. They do not like to share and will shoulder or head bump to maintain ownership of the full pumpkin. Opening a pumpkin without hands or tools is a learned behavior and passes on through the flock as members become skilled pumpkin eaters.

The Goat: Why You Should Eat It … and a Recipe:

Heavy Table (9/15/2012)

Why You Should Eat Goat Meat
Why You Should Eat Goat Meat

Recently, everyone from Mark Bittman to Michael Pollan and our own Andrew Zimmern has been making a strong pitch for goat meat as an environmentally sound alternative to factory-farmed proteins — one that, lamentably, hasn’t quite caught on here in the United States, despite the fact that goat is one of the most widely eaten meats in the world. As Zimmern told the Baltimore Sun: “It’s delicious, and it’s inexpensive, but goat is like soccer in America. It’s growing. We like it, but we don’t get it.”

Two Guidelines for Grilling Grass-Fed Lamb:

Heavy Table (6/28/2012)

Grilling Tonight? Try Shepherd Song's Lamb Chops!
Grilling Tonight? Try Shepherd Song’s Lamb Chops!

Are you grilling tonight for family or friends? Need some new ideas? Grass-fed lamb is easy to grill successfully if these two guidelines are followed. First, in general, grass-fed meat requires less grilling time, at least partly due to low fat levels. Overcooking is common and will significantly diminish flavor and texture. Rare to medium rare is optimal. Allowing grilled cuts to rest for 5-8 minutes before serving allows the juice to redistribute and adds to the flavor.

 

Lamb is naturally tender and delicious straight from the grill with just some salt, pepper, and olive oil, as illustrated in the pictures. While only simple seasonings are needed, lamb meat has an affinity for many spices and herbs, resulting in a variety of traditional and unique flavors, as in this recipe for grilled,  marinated loin chops.
