Limited to 10 people, the class is designed for all levels of butchery knowledge and questions are not only welcome but encouraged! WHAT TO EXPECT: MIX & MINGLE: Before we go in the cut room, enjoy local and house-made charcuterie and sip beer from a local brewery or enjoy a glass (or two) of our favorite wines, while mingling with other classmates.LIVE DEMO: Then, we’ll put on aprons and head into our cut room. (Please dress warmly. It’s chilly in there!) You’ll watch our head butcher complete a live demonstration of breaking down a lamb from start to finish. LEARN: During the demonstration, our butcher will explain the many different lamb cuts, how to make each one, and how each cut compares in taste, texture, and cooking requirements. We'll also teach you how to maximize the meals you can cook from a whole lamb and share with you some of our favorite uses of lesser known parts. DISCOUNT: Bring a cooler!
