About Lamb chuck

Lamb chuck is a flavorful, versatile cut taken from the shoulder of the lamb. Often used in stews, curries, or slow-cooked dishes, this richly marbled meat adds depth to Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and North African cuisines. Its tender texture is well-suited for braising or roasting, absorbing spices and herbs beautifully. Nutritionally, lamb chuck is an excellent source of high-quality protein, essential for muscle development and overall health. It also provides vital nutrients like iron, zinc, and vitamin B12, which support energy levels and immune function. However, its marbling contributes to a higher fat content, including saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation for heart health. When trimmed of excess fat and paired with vegetables, lamb chuck becomes a balanced and satisfying choice.
