ABOUT Homesteading with PJ!
Hi! I’m PJ, and my family loves the homesteading life! It’s something my wife and I have always wanted to do, but we grew up with ZERO HOMESTEADING EXPERIENCE!!!!! We grew up in beautiful southern California, 15 minutes away from the beach. As amazing as that was, we both dreamed of a life closer to land and animals. After getting married and moving to Utah, our family slowly grew. We had become a family of four living in a townhome with a small backyard filled with potted plants.
In 2019 we dipped our feet into homesteading on 1 ¼ acre lot in Utah. In 18 months we were ready to do this for real. So in 2021 we packed everything up and moved to North Carolina to 12 acres and we love every inch of our homestead!
We raise sheep and have big plans for:
• grass-fed lamb
• meat chickens
• laying chickens
• heritage breed pork
• honey
• vegetable garden
• perennial food forest
• and more
I hope you join us on our journey, subscribe and ring the bell if you haven’t yet.

Yes those are cicadas in the background! They've been very fun neighbors so far. 😅
I should have explained that a common misconception is that lamb is the equivalent to veal. It isn't! Lamb is just the term used to refer to sheep meat, but it IS NOT referring to a baby animal when you're talking about the meat. There isn't a term for baby sheep meat (a term like veal) because no one eats that. It's confusing! Lamb is just the word for sheep meat.
Well you taught me something today. I thought that sheep meat was called mutton, and baby sheep meat was specified as lamb. Now I don't have to feel as bad, lol.
No, lamb is a young sheep and mutton is a mature sheep:
"The Oxford dictionary defines lamb as 'a young sheep', or 'meat from a young sheep', while mutton is defined as 'meat from a fully grown sheep'. Meat from a sheep between the ages of one month and one year is served as lamb, while sheep older that one year is served as mutton"
Chicken was a no go for me and beef was great but not optimal. Lamb broth, steak and liver saved my life. So glad you are bringing attention to this amazing protein.
Us Aussies love our lamb, almost the national dish here. Lamb 😋
Yes, and our Lambassador Sam Keckovich
@@persophone4554 He certainly is. make sure you have some lamb on the barbie 👍
Yeah, it's weird. It seems a bit of a rarity in the US but most of us here were bought up on it. Sunday roasts with mint sauce!
Lamb is the best! I make my own lamb bacon. It is better than pork bacon! Salt cure for a week or so, hot smoke and that's it! Also, lamb saddle is a great cut I like to make when butchering. Lamb ribs are the best, lamb sausage, stews, shoulder chops, smoked shoulder (pulled lamb), lamb chops, liver, kidney, tongue, testicles, jerky, and tallow for cooking, soap, candles etc.
I have to try this lamb bacon!
@@almor2445sounds great , never heard of it before !
@@almor2445 Me too someone plz hook us up with this lamb bacon !
Mixing in a bit of home made Jamaican jerk seasoning - it sugar free- grilled jerk lamb burgers tonight !
What lamb cut do you use for the bacon??
There's a guy in Canada that raises heritage breed pigs and feeds them (as well as a large diversity for nutrition) duckweed straight out(well actually it ferments with a grain mix in raw milk but close enough)of his pond, full of little shrimps and stuff, his pork has insane omega 3 compared to typical pork. What your food eats matters. You could very easily improve these across the board by simply feeding them a diet that encourages it.
I love stuff like this. So freaking cool to learn all the ways smart farmers are testing things like this.
Ihave heard climate plays a big role in the omega 3 to 6 ratio as well. Animals from cold climates, particularly when killed in the winter time have a lot more omega 3's. This is why cold water fish are the best sause of omega 3's.
Or lamb costs a LOT more than beef. At least where I live. For me that's a deal breaker. Love the flavor though.
I go to Costco. I can buy whole boneless ribeye for $11.89/lb, but I can buy boneless lamb leg for $5.84/lb. So, I'm not sure where you are, but beef costs over twice as much as lamb here.
@@shredpowI'm in rural CO/Western Rocky Mtns. Commercial ground beef is between $4.50 and $5.00. Grass fed/finished almost double that. Lamb, when you can find it is local, pasture raised and ground lamb is $20/pound.
@@geoffreylevens9045 Wow! I didn't realize it was that different across the States.
@@shredpowit is and esp because where I live is sort of "end of the road" so I suspect the local pays premium for delivery.
@@geoffreylevens9045 Well, when it comes to countryside as beautiful as you have there, I'm sure you would say it worth some inconveniences! I love "end of the road" type places.
I tried lamb for the first time on a cruise a year or so ago and was blown away how much i liked it and have been eating as much as i can get since. Its good! Everyone should try some well prepared lamb.
A person coming from typical US raised beef, all Lamb will taste quite Lamby, that's because corn and soy fed beef has very mild flavor, I have grown to enjoy the little extra flavor that comes with Lamb. I cook with a lot of carefully sourced spices and herbs, curry style lamb dishes accent the flavor so well. I'm not currently eating the carnivore diet, but I do eat mostly animal products with an emphasis on grass fed beef, lamb, bison, and venison.
I lucked out. A nearby grocery store tried their luck with selling whole lamb legs for Easter at $4.99/lb. I got one before the sale ended and got acclimated to the taste. Two weeks later, the legs are still there for $4.99/lb, and I got another. I checked the week after that while grabbing a snack before work and they were still unsold. My poor little chest freezer is now full of lamb legs and there is still about 5 legs left in the store freezer.
Thanks for talking about the B vitamins. I also think the flavor of the lamb is largely determined by what they eat. Lots of fresh green grass makes mild tasting lamb and so good!
Down under we have great lamb. I recommend lamb loin chops. So tasty particularly if your carnivore, lots of fat on them. P.s. Time to buy some smaller shirts pj! 😅 as always great content 👌
I love lamb but can only afford it when it goes on sale for close code.
Just bought some Lamb forequarter chops from Woolies for A$14.50 a kilo. Love em.
Great points! I think another big reason people shy away from lamb is that they don’t know how to cook it or what spices work best with lamb. If you decide to make a video on that, I d like to see it.
It's fantastic with just salt, but add some garlic, rosemary, and black pepper and you've got yourself a treat, for sure.
It's pretty versatile though. It's eaten in so many unique cultures that have found their own ways to spice it.
Being from New Zealand we have more sheep than people. Lamb is an unofficial national food group. The sheep are wool sheep that require shearing. So very wooly. They taste SWEET and delicate. The meat literally has a beautiful sweet flavour. So the wool theory is incorrect. I now live in Australia. The Tasmanian lamb is quite sweet. Both nz lamb and tassie lambs live in relatively temperate climates and are exclusively grass fed. When lambs age they become hogget. The meat of hogget is more gamey. Being a lamb connoisseur it's my understanding that there may be a few different reasons why your lamb tastes gamey. LAMB RULES! A loin chop is a balanced meal of AWESOMENESS....but don't forget the salt.
Thanks for this perspective! 🙏 I bet the breed of the sheep, its age, and its diet cause the differences in the flavors of the meat.
Yep a couple of lamb chops seasoned with garlic salt and rosemary is a great breakfast. Plus, adding the lamb bones when making a beef broth adds a beautiful flavour.
I've noticed with the hair sheep, you can change the taste with how it is cooked. Smoked, it tastes like pork. BBQed, it tastes like beef. Broiled or roasted, it tastes like a very mild lamb.
Great video and information PJ. I always learn something new. Really appreciate your channel.
You are right PJ. I am carnivore for six years, having a lot of Australian lamb. It is also much more tender, no matter what cut. Also excellent protein/fat ratio.
Good info, now i just need a video on how to cook lamb!
One way of cooking lamb is letting it cook in a boiling water in a pot for an hour. Add salt around the last 5 minutes. Now you have both the 🍖 and the broth. You can change the flavour by adding whatever spices you like in the middle of cooking. I usually make it with some onions , dried lemon, turmeric powder, and black pepper. Let all boil till it is well cooked, the aroma and the taste are ❤❤
I toss it in the air fryer, comes out great that way...Lamb chops frequently go on sale here in Publix, and I love them!
Great information! Thank you!
Yay for lamb! I tried lamb when it was on sale at Publix supermarket, and instantly fell in love with it. It's much harder to overcook than beef, IMHO, and I love the taste of lamb. They regularly have lamb shoulder chops on sale for less than beef chuck roast, so it's economical for me, too. I just toss it in the air fryer, easy and tasty. I don't like ground meat of any type, but of the ground meats, the lamb was still my favorite, followed by wild boar. Wild Fork has a good selection of different meats, too. They also have "lamb necks for stew" fairly often at good prices at Publix, which I cook in the crock pot for a few hours, get the meat off the bones, then make bone broth with those bones as well as others I've saved up from the lamb chops. Yum!
Great info….thanks! I’ll give it a try.
Anything grassfed is going to have a stronger flavor to it, so some people will find it easier to ease into lamb with the more conventionally raised stuff before going all the way to grassfed.
Lamb is better tasting than anything else! Young goats are the same! 😊😊 For us Norwegians, lamb is a normal food in autumn when they are brought down from the mountains where they have been feeding since spring.
Thank you and thank heavens. Lamb is just a standard roast in the UK and always my preference to steak of which I'm not a fan. Happy days!!!
I love lamb, too!!! My favorite! ❤
thats right brother! testify!
PJ! Great to hear from you! I hope things are going well on the farm! Lamb is the way!
great summery
Raised sheep for about fifteen years, never was a fan of lamb for my own consumption, but I did like mutton. Sold the lambs and ate the older sheep that were at the end of their useful life, or had not bred that spring or who had udder damage and such.
growing up on a sheep farm we mainly lived on old ewes
@@BenedictFoley I raised a lot of different animals, but liked the mutton. There were a couple of large scale sheep farmers around me and i would buy a few older ewes that didn't catch in the spring from them and run them with my herd all summer. We'd butcher them in the fall. I really used to like mutton burger but that was many years ago.
I really love lamb! Very grateful for the lambs that gave their life so I could live and be nourished. And for the Lamb who gave His life so I could live eternally and with joy ❤️👊🏻✝️
carnivore 4+ years :) lamb has taken over my #1 spot :) love the stuff
Great information! Do you know how rabbit meat would compare to lamb and the others?
1lb ground Lamb with 1lb ground elk or deer, mix together make burger patties, seasoned to your preference makes the best flavored burger. Just don’t overcook
One thing about sheep that ppl forget about or maybe don't know , is that they rarely are surviving close environments unlike cows , if u feed them only grain/beans then they will most of the times lose the ability to produce milk and go sick , so sheep even if its mass produced still needs grass / hay to survive. That's the biggest win for lamb meat vs pork meat for instance , lamb meat can be as fat as pork but its fat can actually heal you , my grandfather healed his stomach and colon ulcers with lamb fat. Yeah i'm pretty sure there must be some some research to modify lambs to survive on different type of feeding , but if we look from another angle sheep grazing industry is quite small id say (niche ) i don't think it's pumped up with money like pork and cow grazing does
I was introduced to lamb in Iceland. I was pleasantly surprised and found it quite good.
oh thank you for this video
Yak. Grass fed Yak is higher in omega three than salmon. Tastes similar to bison (it can be crossbreed with cattle or bison)
Edit: I should say, I do love lamb, and goat...and salmon...and eggs...and smoked turkey...
Cool! I know nothing about the nutritional benefits of yak, but I suppose the high omega 3 content makes sense. Thanks for sharing!
I am an Arab and we prefer lamb over all other meats , it tasts really good when cooked directly on fire , cooking things like boiled pasta with lamb meat also very good, with sliced to very small pieces and used in some homemade recipies has very distinct flavor , can be very good when dried as bacon.
This is amazing! It all sounds so delicious. You're right about the fire, we don't do that very often but it levels up food so much, I agree with you 100%. I haven't tried dried lamb yet, I'll have to try that!
@@homesteadingwithPJ i think if we just want the nutritional value just cooking things less will mostly do the job, but if you want to enjoy food it would be unwise to ignore the traditional dishes and ways of cooking in many countries, i am from libya and i can say from experience that even within the same country for the same traditional dish you will find many varians of the same food, the resulting flavors could make you like the food some much like it's from heaven or straight hate it to ask how they are even eating this..
We need video about the drinks options plz 🔥
Love lamb better than pork. Some pork cuts are gamey to me. But beef is definitely the best taste overall. Lamb is quite expensive near me. Love lamb cutlets but prohibitively costly. Thx for your thoughts.
I love lamb, I regularly buy whole lambs, which I then take apart and eat, from nose to tail. I have been following the raw carnivore diet for 5 years, i.e. I only eat raw meat and raw offal.
The only thing wrong with the lamb is that it is NOT FATTY ENOUGH for my taste. Again, I do like lamb and eat it regularly. Still, it's not perfect. Because it's not fatty enough. To be honest, I don't always find beef fatty enough. Recently, I tend to buy cow marrow bones separately and eat the raw marrow from them, along with the meat, to get enough fat. The bone marrow of the cow is very delicious, but the thing is that the bone marrow of the lamb (at least raw) is even more delicious. On the other hand, there is unfortunately hardly any bone marrow in the bones of lambs compared to cows... :(
So the situation is complicated.
On the other hand, the advantage of lamb over cow is that although I really like raw cow's liver, (raw) lamb's liver is even tastier.
Although delicious, I can't eat lamb often because it's triple the price of beef or other proteins.
As a homesteader I chose to raise goats rather than sheep because they suit my land better. I prefer chevon (goat meat) to lamb, I find it less gamey and more flavorful, cooked low and slow. YUM
Hi. Does lamb, have to be grass fed
Interesting about the flavor of a hair sheep’s meat to a wool sheep’s meat; I hadn’t considered that. It looks like your sheep are more than one breed. What breeds are they? I’m a spinner of wool, so I’ve been acquainted with wool breeds for a while now. Many of the “wool breeds” are actually considered dual- or even triple-purpose breeds, like East Friesians, which are dairy sheep. I just really like sheep, and they taste good, too! 😍 🐑 They’re cool animals!
In Spain lamb is a very popular meat. My grandparents raised cows, pigs, sheep and chickens. I grew up with the best quality meat and eggs
I really like lamb and all of our New Zealand lamb is good quality grass fed. It can be expensive, so I only buy it when on special. Typically I get it in packs that last about 3 days. I do find after 3 days of lamb, that's enough and I am looking forward to getting back to beef. I can eat beef almost every day and forover 5 years have never got tired of it.
I love lamb, but pork is awesome too!
I've always wondered why the siskabob lamb tastes so much better than what I cook
Delicious and Expensive!
Finally after 3 years travelling I'm home in South Australia and we can eat affordable lamb again.
Only ever had ground lamb. It’s pretty expensive but way more savory and flavor than ground beef, if you were to eat a ground meat by itself, I definitely prefer lamb
It's easier to lie to someone than to convince them they are being lied to. Take a second to think about it, test it and then you will see how we are being fooled.
I love the fat from lamb, specifically mid loin chops.
Literally clicked on as I was eating a bowl full of minced lamb lol, very tasty.
YES!
lol - I just had 4 lamb forequarter chops for lunch :)
Lamb is my favourite meat....but it's also the most expensive. Twice as expensive as beef in South Africa 🇿🇦
Are you eating long haired lambs or wool type lambs? I used to live in Morocco and they have the most delicious one bite lamb chops ever, and they're long haired lambs.I went to England and had lamb and I could barely eat it, tasted gamey, they were wool lamb.
He raises hair breed(s) sheep. Probably in Morocco they had some breeds like Karakuls, which are common in Northern Africa, according to my _Fleece and Fiber Source Book_. Their wool is coarse and double-coated, that is, with long, coarse guard hairs and soft, shorter insulating hairs (the down hairs or wool).
The intro got me . . .so there are only 3 types of meat?
Every lamb I have eaten has an aftertaste.
What dry spices go best with lamb?
What is the difference between lamb and goat?
Garlic powder, turmeric smear, stone flower. Coconut oil.
any good mutton recipes bro?
I had heard that hair sheep are a milder flavor then wool sheep. Is that true?
Didn't watch the whole video before asking my question.😊
Katahdin lamb is the best tasting I've ever had. Bar none.
It's a hair sheep.
For me lamb is the staple, not beef
What's your LDL cholesterol?
I don't know! I should get my bloodwork done to share with you guys. I'll definitely share when I find out! Feeling better than ever though.
My grandfather said they scream whilst being converted into food. He refused to eat it. He passed that feeling to my mom, who passed it to me. I don’t eat it.
Right?! Go take the life of a lamb and you might think twice before doing it again. I personally have trouble eating an animal that was just given life if there are other options.
Plant sprouts I’m fine with… even though we just found out they “scream” in their own way haha.
@@MrTLocked I wish there was a way to eat without causing so much suffering and harm.
I love lamb too but it's more expensive than beef.
Beef doesn't really work for me. But i do eat a lot of lamb
Carnivorous diet for 6 years Lamb only for the last year all lamb is grass fed better than grain fed beef 💯
Throw some lamb on the barbie.
When people say they don't like fish, I blame it on poor parenting (unless of course their family couldn't afford it). Defaulting to the Standard American Diet (S.A.D.) does that to you.
I love lamb but my wallet doesn't. Te price of lamb here in UK has gone through the roof.... much dearer than beef steaks. How does mutton compare nutritionally? Also I'm a bit confused about the Omega 3:6 ratio. You say we need way more 3 to 6but the ratios in the graphics you put-up show way more 6 than 3. What am I missing here? :D
I've been carnivore for a year and I'll pass on lamb just the same as I would on puppy or kitten no matter how the name is explained away. My choice and I'm drawing the line there.
That's fair. But just so you know lamb is just the name of the meat, just like beef for cow, or pork for pig. Lamb is not the sheep equivalent of veal. The sheep I eat are all adult animals, and I can almost guarantee any lamb you find at a grocery store is as "adult" as any other animal.
I'm kicking myself for not explaining that in this video. No worries if you don't eat lamb, but it's not a baby. Just wanted to make that clear 😊
Well goat meat might be an option.
I wonder how goat nutritional composition compares to lamb… pj left that out too
@@homesteadingwithPJty! A lamb and sheep are not the same lol I can’t eat a lamb but a sheep - eh probably 😂 Disney strokes again
Cost effective egg
I wonder how goat nutritional composition compares to lamb…
If you want to become a lamb lover just move to Wales.
How many grams of lamb meat are you eating per day ?
Mmmm, I don't know exactly but if I had to guess I'd say maybe a around pound a day? 450 grams? We have it as a family for dinner nowadays, and if we don't I have it for lunch.
@@homesteadingwithPJ but you mentioned in the video that you acquired around 300 pounds of meat, so if you eat 1 pound per day for the whole year then what is left for the other family members?
I thought you were gonna say tuna. lamb is the shit
Ha! This is hilarious 😂
Agree!
A lamb doesn't live long enough for man to corrupt. It's my first choice. 👍
I buy packs of lamb ribs. Cook them in the slow cooker for 6 to 8 hours, then crisp up in the air fryer. I use the bone broth in the bottom of the slow cooker to cook the next batch. It just gets better and better. Lamb ribs are about £4 a pack in Waitrose.
I also buy shoulder shanks. Usually about half the price of leg shanks.
30% more expensive than beef though.
It can be more expensive, but if you can buy a whole lamb directly from a farmer (or small-scale homesteader like me) you usually can get a great deal! Much cheaper than buying cuts individually.
I love it but damn I really don’t like eating dead baby animals. I always find myself hoping it didn’t suffer to become meat.
I just can't come to enjoy the taste of lamb
ahh lamb. i hate the flavor. Steak >
Its not the protein, as much as it is the fats! As well, lamb is pretty much 100% grass raised and finished.
I would go with the smaller fish like sardines instead of salmon. Less accumulation of lead, cadmium, mercury, dioxines, micro plastics, PCB and other environmental toxins. Also they are herbivores and almost exclusively wild caught. Just saying...
I live in Wales so there are lambs literally everywhere! Saw a dead one today. Very sad. The mama was crying bleating.
Lamb is the best. Perfect fatty meat.
Right!?
tasteless and expensive
Too chewy
Unfortunately it taste like crap yuk
Great information. Thank you!
