In Ireland, Irish farmers have a reputation for excellence in the breeding of their lambs from County Kerry. Their meat, subtle and tasty, is internationally renowned and well worth discovering on a trip to Ireland!
If there’s one region that excels in lamb breeding, it’s County Kerry in south-west Ireland!
The area is home to what is known as “Kerry Lamb”, a tender, flavorful lamb used in such Irish culinary highlights as the famous Irish Stew, an Irish stew made from lamb. A real treat for any self-respecting gastronome looking for an introduction to the best of Irish terroir!
Kerry lambs are raised in the traditional way, handed down from father to son over several generations. The program includes a healthy diet, outdoor breeding on the wild grassy plains of Kerry, and of course, a lot of time and love devoted to the animals!
If you’re in a curious mood, and would like to try this tasty experience, most restaurants and pubs in the region have a Kerry Lamb meal on their menu.
In Irish Stew, grilled on the barbecue, as a rib, or as a tender, rare rack of lamb, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to satisfying your taste buds!
The cost per person is usually no more than €15, so you can leave in good shape to continue your exploration of Ireland!
