FAQ - New Zealand + Domestic Lamb

What is the difference between American lamb and New Zealand lamb?

American-raised lamb and New Zealand lamb differ primarily in feeding environment, genetics, and flavor profile.

  • American lamb tends to have slightly deeper, more robust flavor.
  • New Zealand lamb is often known for a cleaner, milder taste and exceptional tenderness.

Both are premium programs focused on quality and consistency.

What makes your lamb premium?

Our lamb selections are sourced from carefully managed programs that prioritize:

  • Consistent sizing
  • Tenderness
  • Balanced marbling
  • Responsible raising practices

These are not commodity lamb products.

Is New Zealand lamb grass-fed?

New Zealand lamb is pasture-raised in open grazing environments. Feeding programs are designed to produce consistent tenderness and a clean, mild flavor.

Is American lamb more “gamey”?

Not necessarily. American lamb may have a slightly fuller flavor compared to New Zealand lamb, but both are selected for balance and approachability.

Which lamb is more tender?

Both programs are known for tenderness. New Zealand lamb is often slightly milder and refined, while American lamb may have a bit more depth in flavor.

Why are these lamb products more expensive than grocery store lamb?

Premium lamb programs focus on:

  • Breed selection
  • Controlled feeding standards
  • Responsible sourcing
  • Consistent grading

You are paying for eating quality, not mass production.

What is the best way to cook lamb rack?

For optimal results:

  • Bring to room temperature
  • Sear to develop crust
