Why the hell would you not eat lamb? We have such little meat selection already, why restrict it any further.

Lamb's delicious. I have it at least once a week.
 
My favourite lamb cut is your basic chump chop. Cheap and flavoursome. No additions, just cooked on a flame grill for a couple of minutes a side. Grill some asparagus at the same time. Place on a bed of greens so that the juices and heat from the cooked meat penetrates the greens. Literally 5 minutes to prepare and minimal washing up too.
 
strange, I would have thought GAF would be all over the lamb

it seems that this is the only case where it would prefer the mutton
 
I am also really surprised at the amount of people that find lamb revolting. It's incredibly delicious and I have it very often. I love the texture of it and it just tastes so delicious.

Y'all are crazy.

I grew up eating lamb mainly in this form ^

Sunday lamb roast. The meat is delicious and tender and just falls of the bone. I can't understand how anyone can be critical of it. I hate you OP.
 
This how lamb should be served: (couldn't find a better photo, so just imagine that it looks good :p)

Oh and of course you have to eat it with your bare hand.

With all my willpower I am still unable to imagine this looking good.

What the fuck is it?
 
Depends on how its cooked since I've had beef that tasted like butt.

They have this Japanese place near my home that has the like 3/4" thick lamb (its not very big) and since you cook it yourself (semi since you can only add some seasoning) it was the best I had. Much better over the pork/beef.
 
This is like an episode of Jamie Oliver's School Dinners, but on a gaming forum.

Lamb is not an acquired taste, it's a taste. If you've become accustomed to an environment where food is generally bland mass produced processed food aimed to appeal to as many people as possible, then confronting something with a taste or texture can be hard to cope with. Or in short: If it's not familiar it's yucky

Lamb is wonderful.

I love lamb. If you had it and didn't like it- as everyone else said- someone cooked it wrong.

Personally, I hate it when you order lamb somewhere- expecting that delicious lamby flavor busting forth in every bite, and you get some lamb that- through some astonishing feat, is somehow flavorless and a little rubbery. I've had it like that a few times and it's just sad.

Yeah, Lamb can go completely wrong, or be amazing and tasty and rich. I had Lamb as a kid when I was out eating with my father somewhere near Milan, it was disgusting. Even my father, who initially thought I was just being picky, said it was a crying shame that the poor animal had to die to be ruined like that. Tasteless, rubbery, slimy... yuck.

Had Lamb at a turkish wood coal grill last year, and it was absolutely delicious. I was simply amazed how much of a difference there was.
 
Best curry meat...but I always feel like a real piece of shit afterwards for eating a baby, can't do it more than a few times year.

Now liver (aside from foie gras and I guess goose liver): that is disgusting.

Fresh, finely sliced raw liver, sprinkled with rock salt, dipped in sesame oil with spring onion?

A very fine appetizer.

EDIT: And this anti-Lamb position people are touting? Their loss. Amazing meat.
 
Lamb is awesome, mutton is even better.

Slow cooked lamb owns any equivalent from the cow and pig families. So much more flavour.
 
pit cook that lamb with some vegetables for a day and you'll change your tune.

When you pop it open your dick'll get hard and not only will you be eating that lamb, you'll be trying to get as much of that meat up your arse, as well.
 
Rack of lamb, with a bit of rosemary and some mashed potatoes... delectable. The flavour is just so rich, it's really something.

Prudes. Eat meat with a bone in it sometime or be like the OP and only eat McNuggets the rest of your life.





Does mommy need to pre-chew it for you too?

Pathetic.

You have no idea how many of these I've eaten. Everything except the eyes.

Great post. It is hilarious that people can say things are yucky when entire cultures base their cuisine on things. It ain't Stockholm syndrome. Lamb has been around forever because it is good.
