Our lamb is raised on pasture without hormones or antibiotics. Our sheep flock is made up primarily of the Dorset breed, a heritage breed that originated in Britain. From May to November, we intensively manage our flock in a rotational grazing system across our pastures. This allows the animals to have access to the best quality grasses, while fertilizing our fields with manure and providing an adequate rest period for plant regrowth. During the winter months the flock is brought into the barn where they are fed hay and have access to the outdoor barnyard at all times.
Rib chops are a delicious and tender cut taken from the rack of lamb, meaning the animal’s back where the ribs are. They are generally best cooked with a high heat method, such as broiling, grilling, pan frying, or pan roasting. Try them marinated or with a simple spice rub!
