Hally

Well done hope you have room in your freezer
-
I thought you were decluttering your freezer Hally lol
-
That's a good price. How many kg will it be Hally?
-
Yes I am decluttering it from left overs, so I wouod have room for more meat cook.LOL
Yes lots of room now.
He said aroubd 24kgs, very excited.
Gotta dash, packing and fluffing
Hally :)
-
I knew you would :). that is a very good price did you ask how much for beef,pork ?
Good for menu planing when you have that amount of meat
-
what sort of cuts do you get? $9.99 per kg is excellent value
-
He told me he would cut them up to however i wanted so I asked for the following
2 legs of lamb, lamb shanks, mince, loin chops, chump chops, forquarter chops, some crown of lamb, some ribs. In hindsigjt i should have got some diced lamb, and backstrap, but its my first time.
I am not so sure on the forequarter chops, it was a choice of them cut into a roast or chops. As sumer is on ts way i thiught choos as he said they were a nice flavour on the bbq.
I have asked them to get me a quote on chicken, mt barker free range breastd & whole chickens. Weceat more chicken than anything ese. Ds has chicken breast sandwiches for lunch quite often

i have found a chicken shop in syd that sell chicken breast (not free range) for $ 5.99 p/k.
will be going next week to check it out
-
I will be in sydney tomorrow, yay love sydney but then fly on the next day o hawaii. Staying at darling harbour
H :)
-
That's a great price. We got about $5 a kg dressed weight for our lambs last week at the sale. Normally we'll only get about a fifth of what the butcher's sell it for.
-
I like darling harbour, 2 years ago frank and i spent xmas eve xmas day and boxing day there , stress free and very relaxing. We hade xmas lunch with DS and a young man from India he works with DH, he was all alone, we cant have that can we. Dinner was with DD and SIL. We are thinking of doing it again this year.
-

haha a whole lamb...thats going to take a while to get through...lots of cooking and lamb when you get back then...often here people go halves or quarters with friends and family..when they can get hold of it at a good price but would never be that cheap here :)
-
Hally asked me to get my thinking cap on whilst she was away and come up with some lamb recipes. Here's some from the forum but check out your TMX recipe books as well. It's strange how there are very few reviews of lamb recipes - maybe not many of us eat lamb because of the price but now is the chance for you to get the ball rolling Hally with all that lamb in your freezer.
