Introducing Eco-Lamb
Lamb tastes great but is rarely seen on the American table. To fill this void Stokes Family Farm now offers a very special, new Eco-lamb to inspire foodies to try new recipes and indulge in an avant guard, locally grown speciality.
Stokes Family Farm's lamb comes from Brian Cash in North Georgia. I say North Georgia because these sheep move around. Brian has created a business of clearing overgrown land with his flock of sheep who quietly replace chain saws, mowers and tractors. Rather than burning up fossil fuels and polluting the air, Brian's sheep convert the calories of kudzu and privet into delicious lamb. To emphasize the Earth friendly work these sheep do, we've chosen the name Eco-lamb.
Eco-lamb is delicious and versatile ranging from mild and juicy to full bodied and herbaceous. It will provide a host of different flavors and textures to delight your palate. I love lamb but have been limited to the few cuts of awfully fatty meat available at the grocery stores. Like you I've got a lot to learn, I'm embarking on a project to cook and blog an entire Eco-lamb one cut at a time. I hope to provide you with insights into cooking the wonderful array of cuts from shanks to chops and roasts. I hope my mistakes and successes will inspire you to rediscover this ancient and delicious food.
Happy Grazing,
Anthony
