MEAT RECIPES

Raw lamb meat has started to pop up in a couple select supermarkets… However, there may still be some people who aren’t that familiar with cooking this delicious meat. Lamb meat is a great healthy meat option, so why not learn today?!

Here are some recipes to help you out using the lamb meat that you can purchase at The Meat Guy!

DON’T KNOW WHERE TO START? EASY LAMB MEAT RECIPES

Lamb meat is rich in a nutrient called L-carnitine. L-carnitine is present in almost every cell of the body and is a substance involved in energy production. Since it burns fat, we can say that it’s an indispensable nutrient for people who are dieting!

They say that L-carnitine is higher in lean meat, but in beef filet, it’s only about 60 mg… whereas lamb contains more than 200 mg! Even so, you may still have to get over the hurdle of not knowing how to cook this nutritious meat. Don’t worry! Once you get the hang of it, you can cook it like any other meat!

Let’s start off with a couple basic lamb meat recipes today!
