Lamb Chump Chops
From Lauriston Community Farm, Goldhanger, Essex.
From Lauriston's Rare Breed North Ronaldsay Sheep, Saltmarsh Pasture - 18-24 Months Old
Organic, Biodynamic, Frozen, Rare Breed
The North Ronaldsay sheep is classified as a primitive, short tail sheep and is extremely rare. Its robustness and hardiness is ideal for the estuarine, salty marsh meadows at Lauriston. We have about one hundred and fifty breeding ewes and five rams.
The ram lambs are usually taken to a very small local abattoir when they are around fifteen months old. They are not castrated so the meat has a wonderful full flavour. It is hung for ten days
