Mutton liver is rich in nutrients and vitamins, and has a slightly stronger flavor than lamb liver. It is high in Vitamins A and B12, and a great source of iron. Livers can be marinated in lemon juice for several hours before cooking in order to remove any impurities. Try them thinly sliced and pan fried with sautéed onions, garlic, and spices.
Mutton is the term used for the meat of a sheep that is aged two years or older. The meat is generally darker in color and fattier than lamb, and has a wonderful deep flavor.
Our sheep are 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.
