We kill our own Sheep for eating here on the farm, and we often have 3 or more legs of lamb in the freezer. last week i got 1/2 a day off and decided to do a nice roast leg of lamb for us as a special surprise dinner.
I didnt have time to thaw the leg, so i roasted it from frozen ( i thought it would be ok if i did so for like 4 hours), apparently you cant do this to home slaughter, becuase it hasnt been bled for so many hours as they do at the butcher.
Sit down to nice candle lit dinner, only potato as acompanyment as i figure just the two of us will eat a lot of the meat.
As my SO starts carving away blood starts dripping down the sides of the roast, it was like we hit an artery! by the time a few slices were carved there was blood all flooding out over the sides of the dish and onto the table, all in our plates and on our hands. It was actually quite horrific. Turned off legs for a long time!!
The cats enjoyed a roast though, and we had a LARGE bowl of iced cream to soothe the hunger!
