- Butcher Justin Williams shows Bon Appetit how to butcher an entire lamb and explains every cut of meat. There are six sections of the lamb that yield edible cuts: the neck, the shoulder, the rib, the loin, the kidneys, and the leg. From those sections, the butcher can offer boneless shoulder roast, spare ribs, rack of lamb, lamb noisette, lamb breast, leg of lamb, stir fry, stew, lamb chops and merguez sausage.

This is the most dapper butcher I've seen.
Whatsapp dapper
Bram Bakker cool 😎
@@smiah1990 thanks😁
He knows his stuff for sure Lamb Is so expensive from the supermarkets or Butchers etc.
@@brambakker1939 Indeed
Having a cutting board big enough to butcher a lamb must be great haha. I can barely butcher a whole onion on our biggest one
Invest in a nice big chopping board, maybe not lamb size, but as big as you can manage in your kitchen, it makes life so much easier!
hey man, ikea has countertop size cutting board now, and pretty cheap, if it's TOO big , you can cut it down
Just replaced the granite countertops in my kitchen with butcher's block countertops, fairly reasonable about $199 for a 1-1/2" x 25" x 8' piece on the long counter.
😂
Get a restaurant size/butcher size, they do exist.
I love how hes so tidy and organized. He places his tools where he left exactly even after using them only for 2 seconds
Me: I need to sleep
UA-cam: *Learn to butcher a lamb first*
Litteraly me
That's me now lol
Yes yt.
He's pretty cool. All the butcher's you have gotten have great voices and are really knowledgeable
Katalina K and that background music is so damn awesome
Katalina K they are knowledgeable because they make a living off of cutting up animals like duh
@@hasunrathnayake1948 theres background nusic
This butcher looks like a jazz musicians to me
They are reading , they aren’t free styling it
All of the other butchers in this series look like they only work as butchers. This guy looks like he could be a musician at a Harlem club on his off time.
Of course there always have to be that one racist guy.....
@@imperialguardsman5929 Turnip ain't racist....he is just a bit angry about when he used to get beat up in highschool by black guys...and lost his woman to his highschool bully.....cut him some slack, it is hard to live with a micro penis.
I’m seeing probably 10 meals from 1 lamb. Is that about right?
@@Undomaranel No u
@@Undomaranel You mean opium right?
This is definitely one of those video you watch with your cellphone at 3 A.M. while at bed.
And with less than 10℅ battery remaining

I grew up on a large sheep property in Australia. I know it sounds simple but lamb cutlets and a bone in leg roast (slow roasted) are some of the best tasting cuts ever and far easier to butcher.
With the hunting season in full swing, I think that it would be super interesting to film a venison butchering.
Joz Wyatt A moose.
Joz Wyatt They should do several episodes with wild game. Birds of all types because they're not all the same.
Joz Wyatt Joz thats a great idea i would really like to see that
It's pretty much the same as lamb, both in size and proportions of muscles.
Search for Bearded Butchers "The Best How-to Butcher a Deer Video EVER"
These series of videos has completely changed the way I look at meat. I'm a meat eater and have been so my entire life, and when I have conversations about veganism/vegetarianism with those who follow those lifestyles, the point that comes up the most was that none of us, at least in west, fully understand that meat is actually the flesh of the animal. Now, it does seem very obvious that meat used to be a living thing, but the meat we get in supermarkets and, to a lesser extent, butchers, the meat becomes inanimate. It's cut up or de-boned or cleaned up so that it is unrecognizable what animal the meat came from. These videos puts a magnifying glass in front of those packages and says "look here! This is what you eat. You may not like it, but this is the reality of it". It's not a comforting sight, but it's the reality of what meat eating entails. Now, I am still a meat eater, and I don't intend to give it up soon, but at least being informed of the cause of that piece of meat being on my plate has made me reconsider the relationship I have with meat, and how much I take it for granted. Great content guys. Please keep it up.
Seeing this makes me want to eat more meat. It actually looks much better seeing the meat coming from a real animal with blood and flesh.
I see your point, but I don't really feel that magnifying glass. To me it's just really cool to see all these different cuts and see the versatility and diversity each animal provides. Even seeing them nearly whole, probably only hours after being killed, I don't feel much discomfort. I see what you're saying, though.
STH yeah I always thought watching something being butchered would turn me off of meat, but this made me want lamb right now 🤤
STH and I want to learn how to butcher now
God creared animals like sheeps , cows , chickens and some other animals for humans to eat , if its Halal dont be sad eating it
This bloke is not only the physical embodiment of style, but he's such a good mentor with educational and colloquial instructions, with a much more relatable perspective than any other instructor I've ever seen
This dude is the coolest butcher I've seen
This is such an eye-opening series. I was raised with the misunderstanding that "butchers" has a mildly violent connotation associated with them, but these are all such nice people, and butchering is such an art. And these videos also really help with appetite while eating. I bet they are all great chefs too.
he's wearing a fedora while butchering a lamb
That's CLASS!
Tis a trilby my boy! These abominations are only worn by two kinds of people. Neck beards, and bad 90's DJs.

Very elegant butcher I must say...
This man is unarguably, an artist.
Butchery is an elegant craft.
Yes! Do special episode on small game and animals like chicken rabbits and stuff like that!
asad asdas I cooked a wild rabbit. Tastes amazing!
They did a chicken.
They already have one for chicken
They did do a chicken but not in a "Beautiful Butchery" format where the individual pieces were explained. It would be good to see a chicken done that way.
Jay Tee I thought it was close enough to be enjoyable.. there’s not much you can do with a chicken really. Not many parts.
His voice is calming
I could listen to this man walk me through anything and would enjoy it EVERY time
Eid mubarak to all muslims 💕
This master butcher is a joy to watch at work, his insightful commentary a great compliment to the artful knifework. The stylish hat is a bonus - really enjoyed this!
I know i would never butcher a lamb any time soon but the vid was very informational and entertaining
Proper butchery is beautiful. When you get your meat in a grocery store, you never see what really goes into the butchery. A great butcher never lets ANYTHING go to waste.
Costco sells entire lambs for a very reasonable price here. I’m debating getting one and butchering it myself; videos like this really give me the confidence. It would seriously save SO much money, lamb is very expensive. The neck (and leg) is probably my favourite cut to work with, it truly makes incredible stews.
Butchering tools are expensive.
The way he frenched the rack of lamb is genius! Every time I see a video of someone french cutting the bones for a rack it seems so wasteful with all the scraping. But he got full pieces of meat off there and super clean bones. Awesome.
My grandfather was a butcher but I was too young when he passed to learn anything but it always fascinated me. That was an excellent video. Thank you. Good job.
Poor lamb. Poor, delicious lamb.
This man is so skilled. I loved the vid and how he explains all the uses of the meats. Shows some real devotion and understanding of cooking.
BA: It would also be great so see some wild meats, like elk/moose, deer, stag or reindeer added to the series.
these videos are really interesting. never had I thought of butchery as a form of art but through these videos these guys really display a passion and intricacy to development of consumable meat. also great commentary really knowledgeable !
WHERE IS THE LAMB SAUCE!
IT'S FROZEN, YOU DONKEY!
HOW COULD YOU OVERCOOK?! YOU WANKERS!!!
ITS RAW
This guys house
Aiden DeAngelo IS RAW
Strangely enough, none of these butchery videos make me feel nauseous or gross me out.
Very well done, Bon Appetite!
Why would they? This is how food is prepared, besides they also skip the most unsavoury parts like gutting and skinning. On camera they only work with nice, clean, fresh meat, and never fail to make me feel hungry >_
@@sholahverassa8582 a lot of people have wrong assumptions about what it actually means to butcher an animal. While yes, I agree the average person won't be able to handle the gore before we get to this video, there are a lot of people who don't understand the steps. I feel like it's important this those twomparts are separate because at least sometimes one person doesn't do not parts and that's okay
@@silentj624 Well, I hold nothing against any parts of butchering process, I only note that some of them are not present in this video, and those that are present seem pretty nice and clean, suitable even for those who can't stomach the slaying and gutting parts. And don't get me wrong, I also don't have anything against such people, their feelings are their personal business I have no right to judge.
@@sholahverassa8582 I wasn't implying that you were. Just expanding. No harm no foul
They just make me hungry
I am glad they finally showed a butcher making sausage with the trim! Now the video is complete.
All of the beautiful butchery videos are fantastic, please keep them coming!
@@blayneraml1901 sucks to be you
@@blayneraml1901 these people are murderers
Being a vegetarian, I don't even know why I'm watching this but I love it! Also this voice is super calming!
Marie it’s a fine craft to watch even if you don’t have a use for it
I think it is just like watching an artist paint, it is a calm process
It's call protein needed
John Paul Castillo A lot of vegetables are high in protein. Meat is not needed in your diet for protein.
i’m a vegetarian too and i honestly love to watch meat being cooked etc. it’s really satisfying to watch and butchering is like an art in a way, haha.
A few years ago I made a boneless leg of lamb roast, but the night before I slathered it in Moroccan spices and yoghurt. Into the fridge and then low and slow the next day. 250° for five hours, 350° for the last half hour. Came out beautiful, very flavourful and toothsome. The yoghurt changed the muscle fibres, tenderizing. Not exactly tender, but easy to chew.
Kudos, brother. I've done over 100 deer and about 20 goats, and this is just a simple, clean, and beautiful synopsis of how it's done. Great job and thank you.
Can we get more of these things? Maybe more exotic animals like deer. Or different types of fish.
nicky vanhouwelingen I don’t know if deers are exotic deers walk up to my front door a lot
Or an elk or moose
Not trying to be rude but I’m not sure if deer are really that exotic. They may be exotic where others live, but around my house I see them all the time
do u mean reindeer?
Could you guys butcher a deer next? These videos are great.
Scott Rea has several good quality videos on Butchering Deer and other animals
Check out meat eater with Steve Rinella. He has a few butchery episodes. Pretty good
Go look at skillcult
Butchering a deer is an art form.
@@impartialknockback Butchery in general is an art.
first let me say thank you for being a millenial and not afraid of meat, that was one of the most beautiful and interesting things i've seen in a long time
I almost started crying at the end. Butchery is so beautiful!
He is seriously talented.
This comes with experience, like most other jobs.
Mr. Williams, for your enjoyment can I recommend a Greek marinade of equal parts lemon juice, olive oil and water with salt, pepper, garlic and oregano to taste. Make enough marinade to barely cover your meat and start marinading it at least 24 hours before you are going to start cooking it. Also turn the meat in the marinade about once every 8 hours or so. Then roast in a low 220-225 oven for anywhere from 4-6 hours depending on the size of the roast. A rotisserie works better than an oven but watch your temp in either. Just a suggestion that you might enjoy. Actually it woks for any cut of lamb, as in spring lamb and not some to old, gamey and tough. I see lots of stores selling what they call lamb but it is actually to old and should be called sheap or mutton at that point. Anyone buying imported "lamb" during our spring in the U.S. should be aware that it was not spring in any county south of the equator when it was slaughtered, like new Zealand or Australia.
Mutton is good, too.
Happy to see Americans embracing lamb and mutton. It’s not an exotic meat, it’s commonplace anywhere around the world.
We live in Portugal and our neighbour gave us a lamb to eat today... a whole lamb. So I followed the instructions here and it turned out great! Thank you so much, very clear instructions and easy to follow. :-)
just love that this dude is wearing a tie under his overall... his like i'ma do this in styleee
Normally i'd never watch this but the filming and information is soooo cool
If you live this! Binge whatch the bearded Butcher on UA-cam. I'd go as far as saying alittle bit better than this cause he talks as he cuts the meat.
I really appreciate how KNOWLEDGEABLE THE HOST is. The host was SUPER PROFESSIONAL and educational. Maybe they could EDUCATE the editor on how to balance the VOLUME.
I could listen to this guy and watch him do his thing all day. So interesting!
I'm a Vegan and I approve this video
BearLionMan ur lying look at ur username
Aw thanks
Seems legit
you must think really highly of yourself if you think we need your approval.
BearLionMan you dirty little liar! You are all meat eating carnivore!
thank you for such a thorough explanation of the entire lamb cuts.
This’s just art.
I can not understand who press dislike .Excellent...
I appreciate this man's style
Amazing skills Mr Williams. I love to see a man do his job with passion and honest hard work. Thanks for the lesson.
I can smell this lamb as he is working on it. Two weeks ago, my son, grandson, and I butchered a lamb in the garage. Not anywhere as tidy as this guy. But none of it goes to waste! :)
Can't wait to finally butcher a lamb tomorrow after studying this to an absolute t. I'm 13 and hoping to be the best chef 1 day
I'll show to this to my Vegan friends. Thanks!
the way he's grab the knife, is he a freaking ninja?
The mention of cutting across grain for a more tender, easier to chew result is so helpful. I have young kids so easy to chew is quite important. I quite often like to break down my own meat to save money and I also just enjoy the process.
6:55 Hahaha LMFAO.!!! " BEING VERY CAREFUL, MAKING WELL THOUGHT OUT LONG STROKES WITH THE HAND SAW.!!! him- SLAPS DOWN ON HIS KNIFE TO FINISH CUTTING THE RIBS.!! IM CRYING 🤣
He's definitely a musician. He even has a nice tattoo on his forearm.
Feel like sharing this in a vegan group and letting the hate keep me warm at night
the only good comment in New

I usually get a side of lamb in the Fall and have it butchered locally. I’m thinking this year I’ll try my hand at cutting it myself. Thanks.
as a teenager i was a butchers apprentice then i went to culinary school.... but now im an electrician. i respect this a lot, i remember learning from a 70 year old italian guy how to butcher a lamb, barely understood him lol
Artistry in motion, thank you for sharing you knowledge.
This guy is a pure craftsman a very educational video😀😃.
Very clear explanation, feels like an artist who is presenting his artwork.
It is almost mesmerizing to watch an expert craftman perform his/her craft like this. Extremely relaxing, interesting and inspiring.
Let's take our most soothing, peaceful, artisanal unnamed series... and also add fukken GUNSHOTS to the intro!
It's called Beautiful Butchery.
it was unnamed until this video, which comes complete with a brand new title sequence and FUKKEN GUNSHOTS BABY WOOOOOO
Personally to me they don't sound like gunshots, more like the sound of the door to a walk-in fridge being slammed repeatedly
Internet Shaquille
*Gunshots, explosions and screaming*
*Peaceful violin music playing*
These videos are dope. They make me want to buy a whole animal and butcher them myself.
i really love these videos! realistically i don't think i'll ever butcher a lamb myself but i think it's good for people to watch these videos and understand where their meat comes from. i feel like a lot of people are disconnected from their food since nowadays most people buy from the supermarket, so i find it nice to see what my meat looks like before it gets turned into a burger patty or curry (my mum makes a great goat curry but the butchers always cut the meat up into cubes).
Merguez it originated in Algeria 🇩🇿❤️
I love lamb and beef Merguez mixed together with our Algerian spices yam yam
In one night I learn how to butcher a cow, pig, tuna and lamb. Now my life is complete.
Hhhh
But did you learn how to filet every fish and open every shellfish?
A protective glove would be advisable. as well as a protective apron! Very interesting!!!
Thank you for explaining. I just fallowed your process and it was very helpful.
Is it me or is this REALLY satisfying?
Excellent video tutorial, very impressed with your presentation - Wonderful Job mate!
Mr Justin Williams i salute you for this masterpiece tutorial, man you are an artist botcher, (thank you so much) for sharing with us your brilliant knowledge
Typo, butcher
It is such a pleasure to watch a person that is so good at what he does. I have eaten a lot of lamb but this shows me how it is cut for the first time (and I am old).
This guy is very articulate! And he's got flair!
This was oddly satisfying and I've never even had lamb !
Work of art
The thumbnail doesn't look like what I'd expect the shape of a lamb's body would be, underneath all the wool.
I give them props that the outline is of a whole animal whenever they show where the cuts come from
TheMovieMyLife hi i have been subbed to you for over 2 months.❤❤❤
TheMovieMyLife when are u going to make a new vid😀😀
Cutie Pie - Sorry for the delay! 😀 I'm working on something for this month. Thank you so much for the support, lovely. 😊❤️
do you post comments on Facts videos?
Awesome video! The butcher is well spoken, and he knows his craft!
Excellent. Thank you for the demonstration and explanation.
These uploads are educational as fuck.
You guys should check out Scott Rea also if you're into butchery.
Behind you. Thx, just subscribed
Scott is amazing!! long time subscriber of his.
Rabbits haven't been safe since I watched Scott
almost expected to hear some jazz song come out when i first saw him that's why you don't judge the book :P
this guy is the complete package really great information and very good explanations of what and why he was doing everything
so respectful! thank you for your good VIDEO!
my neighbor has 4lambs as pets i was just watching tame from the window when watching this video !! 🤔 hahahah
You should make one of these videos with venison
There are some other videos with venison butchering
skittlebeape We agree
Also known as venison
Well articulated video.. So much respect to butchers.. This brother is so skilled.. Thanks for the great lesson
as an Aussie, watching you break down a perfectly roastable bone-in leg... I appreciate the artistry but deplore the wastage of the literal best part of the animal.
Damn, he really knows what he's doing
Mary HAD a little lamb
This whole series is brilliant and respect to this dude for his style and butchering.
Thank you so much - this is an excellent video & visual guide! What a great presentation.
Good luck trying to convince me butchery isn't a incredible skill.
Excellent display. Thank you for this.
Awesome walk-through! Side-note: I wish this guy was my butcher.
Great illustration & conversation while butchering. Todah!
thanks for this amazing work,it is very helpful in understanding cuts and parts of lamb .it is also excellently shot.
