Under $15 meal for two from Wal-Mart, lamb steaks

[GON]

Returned home from a huge work trip late Saturday afternoon, six states in five days to include the so called Denver blizzard.

Midway/ Park City are not great places to go out to eat, and especially during the current peak tourist season. Went to Wal-Mart to see what I could find that would cook up easy and be somewhat effortless. This is what I came across, out the door of Wal-Mart for under $15 (not including wine). Only thing I added from home was the butter and parmesan Reggiano cheese. Starch was four cheese fresh ravioli and vegetable was frozen grilled broccoli and cauliflower.

Never heard of a lamb steak before, but I do like rosemary. The steak was pre-seasoned, and had simple cooking instructions. All I had to do was follow the instructions. It was on clearance.... music to my ears.... And shocking as it may sound, I find Wal-mart to be one of the better chain grocery stores for multiple reasons.

Enjoyable meal, very affordable, had leftovers..... and did not have to go out to eat.

Nice! I love lamb steaks and lamb everything. I get it at Publix, all from Australia.

Lamb? Gag! We had it a lot growing up. Never again as an adult. Tastes like......lamb.

Love lamb, my favorite meat - lamb burgers, lamb sausage, shish kabob, chops, steaks, stew, Indian/Turkish/Greek/Thai dishes, etc. I am running low on the two lambs in my freezer, but fortunately two local friends have said they will start raising sheep. Made a lamb Massaman curry last week; chunks of lean lamb with onions and ****ake mushrooms simmered in coconut milk with Massaman curry paste - outstanding!

I used to think like that., Had bad lamb as a kid and didn't feel the urge to try again for twenty years. Then I discovered lamb curry and it didn't have that strong taste I had been associating with lamb. I now really like most lamb. But it really has to be lamb. What's often sold as lamb is not really lamb and it's pungent.

Lamb curry with LOTS of carrots and green peppers

Whenever I grill lamb, we soak it first, to reduce the often disliked gamey taste. Using a shallow recepticle, place several sprigs of fresh rosemary on the bottom. Next, place your lamb pieces on top of the rosemary, then scatter as many garlic cloves as desired in the recepticle. Pour enough of your favourite beer to cover the lamb for about two hours then, straight from the beer and on to a piping hot grill. Cook until desired.

Haven't seen a bottle of Moretti in many years! Thanks for posting- please post a follow up when out of the oven.

They're on the grille right now, stay tuned! We used the pan just for soaking them.
