How To Butcher A Lamb At Home (Tutorial)

In this video I show you how to butcher a lamb at home using only a couple of knives and a hand saw. I show you a couple of options you could use for each part of the carcass. Hope you enjoy the video and this helps you with your own home butchering. Thanks for watching👍

Thanks for the great production learnt heaps cheers mate

[@34tab]

thank you = so very nice- never seen the tailbone out with a knife. I have the bandsaw - but you have to wash and sanitize that and for a couple of lambs - I like how you did that. (want lamb for supper now)

No worries Bel, glad of could be of service😉

[@deanwitt7903]

Awesome video mate . I’ve been really wanting to do this myself rather than have a home kill guy do it .I can see from what you have done here exactly what I should get back however I think last time I didn’t get all meat back that I should have . You have a great skill there .

[@botivarparvelious5569]

Hi I am Majid I see your video awesome

[@wartdog345]

so frustrating the ease in which you do this. and Im dropping the carcus and fumbling my knives and making a bloddy mess... great video with easy instructions. I am going to watch it many times to get maybe 5% as good as you!

[@user-yd7ov9kb9n]

Excellent

[@theoutdoorlife4665]

Best video I’ve seen! Beautiful cuts, love to buy a set of those knifes. Any recommendations?

[@butcherbennytee1983]

Thankyou, I would buy Victory knives. Been using them for the past 2 years or so and I can't fault them.

It's a nice channel, but it has some shortcomings. I really enjoy watching it. Thank you.I invite you to our channel about cutting lamb 😄

You are very good. The brand and code of the table you are using

Hello my guy, very informative, thank you very much. How long was the lamb hanged before cutting it up? Cheers

[@dancoope256]

[@AZHighlandHomestead]

What is your preferred saw blade Benny?

[@butcherbennytee1983]

The saw I'm using is a "Jack Horner" and the blade is just a standard meat saw blade.

[@chadpritchard4285]

Hi there Mate how much for a lamb chop up please and thank you u do a good job

[@jastrootman11]

This is fantastic thanks Benny! Did you let the lamb hang at all before butchering

[@butcherbennytee1983]

Cheers mate, yeah this lamb was hung for 1 week before being cut up.

Forequarter bone in roast is the best roast you can get absolutely.

[@butcherbennytee1983]

You're not wrong👍

[@MuhammadTaqeeuddeen]

Great job, what type of lamb is that? My lamb is not nearly as big.

[@butcherbennytee1983]

It's a 2nd cross bred lamb, so Merino/Border Lester x Poll Dorset. Cheers

[@samiamnot8906]

How long would you recommend hanging a sheep carcass for without refrigeration? I will be hanging the carcass in a shed with a door open either side for the cool air flow with a clean sheet over the carcass, July in southern Victoria. Cheers :) Planning to kill late afternoon for quick meat set.

[@butcherbennytee1983]

You'll be able to hang it 4-5days down with temperatures no worries. I'm in Victoria as well, and this time of year I wouldn't bother turning a coolroom on for a few lambs👍

[@eddyj4097]

Do you use the tail bone for a stock ? Or a bunch on a slow braise for stock?

[@butcherbennytee1983]

Yes I normally trim all that sort of stuff out for sausages, and some of the better bones go into soups and stews.

[@TIMFARMS-it8um]

What temperature is the carcass when you are chopping? Mine always seem “wetter” and softer.

[@Sanderly1820]

Im surprised you didnt scrape the meay from the rib dage that meat will make great lamb mince, surprising how muchvmeatvtrim youve thrown away, in the uk where im from we actually have an extra cut called barsnely chops A Barnsley chop is a cross-section taken from right across the lamb's loin. This produces a double-sided chop with a bone in the middle and a little fillet underneath. Since it's cut across the saddle, it's sometimes referred to as a saddle chop. One of these is a portion for a person, wexalso do this cut with pork chops too

[@chriscarpenter6241]

Could I get an equipment list?

[@dicungDon]

Thank you so much. I have learned alot. May you please do more videos regarding different type of meat (chicken, bird, pig, deer etc)? You got a sub. Thanks again. BTW, may you please recommend a butchering kit for beginners? Like which brand, what types of knife or bone saw us beginners need. It can be another video as well. Thanks :-)

[@butcherbennytee1983]

No worries, yes I'm going to work on the new videos of different types of meat. As far as knives go I would recommend Victorinox for a good stainless knife. But I also like the Dexter Russell (Green River) knives. These are not stainless but they hold an excellent edge but they do require a bit more care to ensure they don't rust.👍

The camera went out of focus, it comes good after a few seconds.

It’s a shame that some of its out of focus.

Yes, sorry about that, I didn't realise until I played it back. I'll do another little Video to cover the parts that were blurred out.

@2:14-2:15 did he just spank his meat?

[@user-vk7kj5gq8w]

Approximately 8% of that lamb is wasted.

[@lordjaashin]

its not wasted. most of it is high fat meat parts. you'll ask whats wrong with that? the thing is unlike beef, fat of lamb is too overpowering flavor that many don't find appealing. it will ruin the flavor of delicious lamb meat.

[@TheRealMonnie]

@@lordjaashin could it be made into a tallow?

[@lordjaashin]

@@TheRealMonnie only use kidney fat for high quality tallow. fat from other parts doesn't make good quality tallow as tallow made from such fat goes rancid quickly.

What a shame. Went totally out of focus. Was learning a lot from this, though, I will say.

The part i wanted to see the most blurred!!! 😒😒😒

[@kellyoconnor9773]

Very blurry

[@isaacjohns3651]

whats up with jointing the fore shank and hind shank seems stupid to me, also could have cut through the knee joint to take the hind shank off or to "joint" it plus it wouldn't require the saw, and why keep the hip bone in? kinda makes sense for rump steaks otherwise just lazy or lack of know how, i mean i'm no butcher but i am a knife hand at a lamb meat works we have set cuts some of them make more sense than cutting it up like this
