Knows what a fatty is.
'bout 10 or 11 hours?:wink:
Wow, I would love to taste that.Strange that a Kiwi is making suggestions about Aussies and sheep.
Muzza is homesick and pining for the ewes, John:wink: :laugh:
For me one of the best cuts is a leg of mutton (old & tough). Brined as if making a ham or corned beef. Cold smoke for 6 hours. Then Sous Vide at 135F for 48 hours. Sear and serve. Wow. Tender and great flavour.
The best lamb I have ever eaten was in the Northern UK outside of Carlisle. With that said, you can get some world class lamb if you do as Thirdeye does. However, the best lamb is fresh killed, and that is a treat few of us can afford sadly...
I've had lamb in Oz, New Zealand and here. I loved them all. Probably the very best lamb I've had was in New Zealand when we were staying at the Lodge (or something like that) at the Franz Joseph Glacier. We had a spectacular rack of lamb with an awesome bottle of Australian wine and the bill was so small I was embarrassed. Granted, this was 1986.... :roll:
The best lamb I ever had was in Ireland. I have had lamb in the US and Oz. I haven't been to NZ.
What I find most humorous is the OZ vs NZ claims of sheep farking. For Chrests sake, all ya'll are just two islands of criminals anyways. Of course you're farking sheep. Have you seen your women?!?!?
:twisted:
Those fare payng no hopers didn't get convicts because they hadnt the infrastructure, had nothing to do with colonization.nthole.. "What I find most humorous is the OZ vs NZ claims of sheep farking. For Chrests sake, all ya'll are just two islands of criminals anyways."
Mate ... all the convicts were either shipped to The West Island (Australia to you yanks) and Norfolk Island. The South Island and mainland (North Island) of New Zealand were populated by fare paying immigrants not pommy criminal exports!
Muzza, slumming it with the criminals in Perth for a while.
The USA got 400% more convicts than Australia, the majority to New England...funny that.:hand:
