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👍

Not long got into hunting and ur skinning vids have helped a lot bro I watched ur vid where you butchered a goat but used a bandsaw, I got no bandsaw so this vid is bloody amazing shout out from Taranaki, Grew with no one to teach me these things so definitely grateful you take time to show and teach people these things appreciate it bro. Old man passed when I was younger and his name was Benny t aswel so top man bro legend

Thank you very much for posting this video. Today I followed your video and turned a 150kg mutton into some great cuts for my family. Thank you

[@botivarparvelious5569]

Benny do not let my Mom see you throw all these parts under your table hahahahaha .But great Skills thank you.

[@butcherbennytee1983]

Haha, cheers mate👍

[@ozgal606]

Thanks heaps mate, just followed along to butcher my first home kill. It's not as schmick as yours lol but I am happy with the end result. Bel from Tamworth xx

[@butcherbennytee1983]

No worries Bel, glad of could be of service😉

[@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)

[@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 .

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

You're not wrong👍

[@ElDuardo01]

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

[@JesiDavisBuildingaSimplerLife]

Great video!

[@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.

[@Karmz-m5f]

Shot mate thanks for sharing 💯🔥

[@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

[@khalidgourich3140]

[@JohnSmith-wq8jn]

Hey Benny thanks for the video what hand saw do you use or recommend for someone at home. Cheers

[@TIMFARMS-it8um]

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

[@tanefranken]

Thanks mate , just interested but how come no neck chops ? Cheers

[@dancoope256]

👌

[@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.👍

[@العراقي-ح4ط]

[@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

[@chadpritchard4285]

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

[@hakandemiroglu6118]

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

[@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.

[@simondixon3803]

@@butcherbennytee1983 it be nice to see you kill the sheep

[@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.

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👍

[@Oussama_and_ibrahim]

Thanks à lot ,but you need à vie from the top for à better shooting

[@zapso215]

how much meat is all that?

[@butcherbennytee1983]

Can't remember from memory, but this was a slightly bigger lamb I broke down and weighed all the cuts. Cheers👍 kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJmlkHyMhryHbpYsi=jF69b7dFf7Tf9wEl

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

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

[@robertnavarrete3044]

You threw away a lot of good trimmings? a lot of good meat.

[@astonifyed]

Whereabouts are you based?

Can we see you kill the first please thank you

[@AndrewPenn-p8y]

looks to be alot off wasted meat thrown under bench, not the clearest camera recording

[@butcherbennytee1983]

No wasted, as I say in the video it's put in a tub for sausages. And yes there are a couple of parts that it goes blurry. Something for me to work on as a one man set up. Cheers 👍

[@timpaizis]

Sook up much

[@MANDREW33]

Mutton much tastier than lamb.

[@butcherbennytee1983]

Definitely the older the tastier 👍

[@troymetoyer262]

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

[@SamTakana]

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.

[@chimpe1727]

[@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
