Today Gourmet frozen ground lamb comes in 4-1lb. Packs. Listed under Grilling Foods, SKU sku-14566771056, UPC 464536721752. Sourced from free-range, grass-fed sheep and lamb in New Zealand, it is 80% lean and 20% fat. The ground meat includes cuts and trimmings from the shanks, breast, neck, flank, rib, loin, leg and shoulder.

Its distinct flavor suits burgers, meatballs, shepherd's pie, and Greek and Middle Eastern dishes. Lamb supplies protein, zinc, selenium, riboflavin, niacin and vitamin B12, nutrients that support cellular function and energy. Use a meat thermometer when cooking.

The preparation instructions say to remove lamb from heat when it reads 5 to 10° below the planned temperature, then let it rest as the temperature rises and the juices settle. They cite USDA recommendations of 145º for medium-rare chops and roasts, 160º for well-done chops and roasts, and at least 160º for ground lamb.
