do americans really?

I agree, if I'm buying lamb I'm going to be buying a shoulder or neck.

two bites of pure bliss with mustard honey and rosemary.

>>17034417
honestly it's about a balance of quality and quantity, you euros are used to getting ripped off on the regular so don't be mad over the fact that we have more business sense. It could be the best thing I've ever eaten but if I get a tablespoon of meat for my money is it really worth it if I'm still hungry?
>inb4 amerifat comment
I'm not fat nor do I eat an exorbitant amount of food but this is just basic bartering 101

>>17034404
Why not have prok chops and applesause?

Why don't we eat mutton any more? It would be cheaper because the animal is larger ergo more meat

>>17034471
>the american lamb industry was killed off by the beef lobby
>derpderp american freedom!

I'm not who you replied to, and I'm not trying to get nationalistic and comparing who has the least fucked up society (they are all broken).
I'm just pointing out that you've somehow co-opted political and corporate corruption as a social virtue .
Pretty relevant point considering the current situation...

>>17034488
Mutton is really good but here in the states chicken is less expensive.

>>17034488
depending on your cunt a lot of "lamb" may actually be hogget or mutton

>>17034493
>I'm just pointing out that you've somehow co-opted political and corporate corruption as a social virtue.
No I didn't, I just said not eating them is a wise business decision since they cost too much for what you gain. To be fair though I was a bit out of line for that euro jab so my bad.

Buffalo is really good, how come nobody eats that?

>>17034506
Nobody is out of line for fucking with eurocunts, those fags deserve it.

>>17034494
Chicken is cheaper in every country. Poultry is the cheapest meat to produce in general. Also lamb is way more expensive than mutton and so is veal. The older the animal the cheaper it gets.

>>17034507
They did. But some cunts killed them all.

>>17034512
Buffalo are not extinct.

>>17034510
I mean it is fun but honestly on this board I prefer to be civil since I care about cooking a lot. On the other boards it's just good fun.

>>17034513
Yeah bro. Bison aren't real Buffalo.

>>17034513
buffalo deeze nutts

>>17034513
The flying ones are

>>17034506
you implied not purchasing over-priced meat was an American virtue whilst ignoring the fact the meat is over priced because of American
iniquity

>>17034511
Never forget poultygeists, they're spooky.

>>17034521
piss off vegan fag

>>17034521
>ignoring the fact the meat is over priced because of American iniquity
Doesn't matter because it's not relevant to the argument, it is related to it but it is not relevant here as all that is relevant is that there is a product that is overpriced for its value.

I take back the unwarranted comment you europoors are midwit trash god I hate your ""people"".

>>17034524
haha just takin the piss, you're alright.

>>17034528
If you read my post, I clearly stated it wasnt a direct rebuttal to his argument but a broader observation.
who's the midwit?

>>17034521
>whilst ignoring the fact the meat is over priced because of American
iniquity
I'm from Australia which has had a sheep industry since basically the moment white people showed up and lamb is overpriced here too

>>17034723
I'd have loved to have visited Austrwalia with my girlfriend back in the day. Too late back in this covid bullshit.

>>17034732
dw mate your gf made it out here we had a great time

>>17034723
>iniquity
that's retarded nigger shit and you know it

>>17034743
and good times were had by all

>>17034746
It's also the word used by the person I was replying too not me

>>17034404
I made a curry marinated lamb shank soup once and it was absolutely amazing. I wonder if I can find the recipe again.

>>17034482
cos lamb is better.

Shitposting aside, can euros give a quick rundown on lamb prices in your home nation and how often you eat it? In America its expensive. I love lamb but it's a special occasion meal for me, usually on Fat Tuesday.

>>17034519
explain buffalo wings?
do we just have a frozen stockpile of them? are we eventually gonna run out nigga?

>>17034404
ukbro here but I can get 2 massive lamb steaks from my local supermarket for 3 quid. don't know why you would buy those pathetic little stick things unless you were making a stew or something.

>>17034426
fuckin oath, how good is roast lamb shoulder

>>17034404
Be patient and wait for a sale.
I've picked them up for like $6 a pound.

>>17034426
based choice, lamb neck slow braised is top fuckin shit
OP just don't buy some gay cut where the butcher nicks half the meat like a retard

>>17037796
For Germany depending on the cut 20-40€/kg. Carre like in op's pic should be around 25€/kg.
Lamb isn't very popular here. There's the traditional easter lamb but even this becomes more and more unpopular. Otherwise it's some special occasion meat. Mutton and sheep are almost completely despised. I guess you could get those in Turkish stores pretty cheap though.

Lamb only tastes good at restaurants.

>>17039811
dude, all you need is a little salt and then it cooks itself.

>>17034404
>t. tastelet

one of the best lamb recipes i've made in a while from chef john
https://foodwishes.blogspot.com/2015/05/braised-lamb-with-radishes-and-mint-and.html

sear lamb shoulders
reduce sherry vinegar, sugar and anchovies
add shoulders and chicken broth, braise till tender
take out the lamb, reduce your sauce, add mint, rosemary and butter to make
serve with radishes or taters whatever else
delish, mint and rosemary are lamb's best friends

>muh shekels

>>17037796
two days ago I bought 9 mid chops for $22AUD

>>17034426
but I love crumbed lamb cutlets with gravy

made me some lamb souvlaki today, boys.

>>17034404
Higher quality meat is obviously more expensive. This isn't a problem unless you're some kind of poorfag.
