A few pics from an upcoming post I'm going to do in the W&SS section later with the same title, but several more pics. Nothing like the taste of meat cooked over an open fire in the woods :)

Awesome. There's something magical about cooking meat over an open flame. That mutton looks delicious.
 
Awesome pics Mist. Nice mutton! Looks delish!

It does look delish, but I'm trying to remember the last time I've eaten mutton. Oh wait...I remember....Never. Seriously. Someone please describe it. Or something else it tastes like/similar to.

Old lamb
 

Thank you sir :)


Wow! Yummy.

I certainly thought it was delicious :D ...was wishing I had some ale to wash it down with ...


wow...those feather stick pics are great!


Thank you, with my work I get a LOT of practice :)


what kind of wood is that that youre getting such great curls out of?

Those branches were well seasoned maple. Made for some nice curls, helped that the knife came very sharp :)


That is a great photo.

Thank you Preston!


Your pics are amazing Brian! What a great post.

That mutton looks so good!

Thank you sir, I'm glad you like them! It was to me :) For the final rotation as the fire died down I walked down wind a ways to work just to smell the aroma drifting on the wind lol

Thank you. Yeah, I much prefer meat cooked over an open fire. Plus the olfactory senses are our stronger memory arouser, so when I go out and cook over fallen wood, burning lichens moss and all, it triggers a lot of memories from my younger days.

Thank you Josiah! Well...you know...I don't have a kitchen yet, there is a delay with the plumbing with all the crazy weather we have been having...



Nice curls.
Why must you temp me to buy a production bushfinger.
I have two handmade ones already!


Thank you sir.

Well...do you have a custom in CPM S235VN? Only a few were made, so for me this is the only I can get a Bushfinger in my favorite steel :)

Well...it is a rather unique flavor...maybe a cross between goat and grass-fed beef...sort of...


im already hungry!! I, also, have never had mutton but now im wanting to try it!

I love it roasted, it's a little greasy for crock pots for me.




Heh....gee thanks.

Lol, yeah technically mutton is just an adult lamb. This was actually packaged as rack of lamb, it's just that I happen to like the term mutton. Were I raising my own I would definitely prefer to let it grow a bit longer and larger, also more flavorful in my opinion, but some do not like the stronger tasting adult sheep.

Plus...Roast Mutton is a chapter title in one of my favorite books. I spent a lot of time in my youth sitting in the woods reading Tolkien :)
 
Looks great. I like to stab lamb legs and stuff the holes with garlic and bacon.
 
Goats are the best farm animal IMO. One day I will have a place with goats and chickens and one lama or a donkey to protect them and be a happy redneck.
