yes, and I would not again if I have any say in it. :-P

Yes, I have and I don't like it. ~Tanya - mama to 5 :)

Growing up we always would have lamb and homemade mint jelly on Easter. I always loved the tase of it. My husband does not wish to try it,so it has been many years since I`ve eaten it. I would definatly buy it if I ever have the oppertunity. I`ve heard it`s very healthy for you.
I really enjoy reading your blog Tammy! I love the Lord and love to cook so your blog is absolutly perfect for me!! I hope your having a blessed Lord`s day with your family:)~~Toni

We loved the burgers the best of the lamb we had. We hated the ribs. There was just nothing on them. The chops were better then pork ones. The steaks were good too, but I LOVED the lamb burgers on the grill with all the toppings. They were so lean and delious. I did like Ostrich when we had that in a burger too. I guess I like a leaner burger better then the regular greasy ones.

I like lamb in stews, but I'm not as fond of a lamb roast. The flavor does take some getting used to - it's not like chicken, beef, or pork - but I have found that I really do like it.

I love lamb and would eat it more if it weren't for the cost (since we get a lot of venison for free). It is our family tradition to have it for Christmas Eve! Yum!

Yes I LOVE lamb!! Australians eat quite alot of it. I would say its almost our most popular meat!

I've decided that lamb is my favorite meat...although we don't get to have it very often. I think it is SO delicious!

I have only had it once, on a bed and breakfast farm in England. A little disconcerting since the lambs were roaming around by the window during dinner! Otherwise, I would have liked it better.

As other Aussies have commented, lamb is very very common here. You will generally find that when it smells bad when cooking it is because it hasn't been cleaned out properly prior to processing. Dad (the farmer) always penned the sheep on dry feed and water for a couple of days before killing to "detox" them first. He says when sheep are sent straight to the butchers from fresh green feed in the paddock that's when the meat will smell bad as it cooks. There's nothing wrong with it, just makes it smell and taste a bit different. If you have been put off by lamb in the past try it again but try a different butcher, preferably one who does their own killing or has a say in the preparation before processing rather than just buying bulk from the abbatoirs. There's nothing better than roast lamb, potatoes and homemade mint sauce, for smell or taste!

I grew up only eating it on Easter (and not liking it very much!) Howver, as with many foods, I have come to love lamb...especially when roasted with garlic and rosemary...yum!

Recently, someone told me that many people are against eating lamb because it's a "baby sheep." I said I didn't think that all lamb was from a young sheep (as opposed to veal, which is always from a young calf).

However, I'd much rather have and advocate for natural or organic meat - beef, lamb, venison, or otherwise - than be against eating a specific type of meat. I can't believe it's acceptable to inject animals with all sorts of antibiotics and chemicals!

Tastewise, I like braised lamb, lamb schwarma/gyros, and lamb chops every so often. The grease/fat factor, however, sometimes leaves an unpleasant taste in my mouth and an unpleasant heaviness.

I like it, but not enough to justify the cost. I think it lends itself well to kabobs.

Yes, I grew up eating roast leg of Lamb every Easter, with mint jelly. My Dad also used to make lamb burgers frequently. Although I've been a vegetarian since I was 17, lamb was one of the few meats I liked as a child.
When I think about it now, eating lamb on Easter is just plain strange! It seems wrong somehow, religiously I mean....

We like it- especially my husband. When we visited Australia we ate a lot of it. (You have quite a few Australian readers!) But here it's hard to find and it's expensive. I haven't cooked it much myself because of that.

but it depends on how it is cooked and how strong it is. It is kind of like venison for me, sometimes it is really good and other times I cannot gag it down...well, better than venison. I do not like venison usually!

Anyhow, I wish it was not so expensive as then we eat it more!

I would eat lamb twice a day if it were in my budget to do so. I grew up in a European household where lamb was made all kinds of different ways.
However... lamb is good as long as it is from a good supplier, otherwise it tastes "weird".
NEVER buy lamb from New Zealand. ick. I don't know what they feed them, but it gives a weird after taste.
Australian and American lamb is great, though.

we eat it here every once in a while

I am glad I found this! I have Lamb Shanks in the slow cooker right now and was horrified by the smell!!! I was ready to throw the whole thing out thinking it was bad meat. I have cooked lamb chops a LONG time ago, but that is it. I was not ready for this smell. I am glad I don't have to throw them out, 3 lbs of lamb is not cheap! I will however, be careful when we eat...just in case.

Yes. We keep Passover each spring.
