Irish Lamb Stew

[QSis]

I think I may have gotten this recipe from someone here, but I forgot to add the username next to the recipe. If so, please raise your hand!

I made this again tonight, since it's such a winner, and because it's almost St. Pat's Day and because I got some cheap lamb steaks. Oh, yeah, and it's stupid-easy, too!

I edited the recipe a bit.

Irish Lamb Stew (crockpot)

5 cups chicken broth
5 carrots, peeled and sliced
3 leeks, white part sliced (or one large onion)
4 cloves chopped garlic
4 shallots
2 large potatoes, scrubbed and cubed
3 lbs lamb neck pieces or shoulder chops or lamb steaks
1 pkg frozen peas
salt
pepper
garlic powder
pinch of fresh rosemary

Put all the fresh vegetables in the crockpot and place the lamb on top of the vegetables.

Pour the chicken stock over all. Add salt, pepper, garlic powder. Sprinkle just a pinch of fresh minced rosemary on top.

Cook on HIGH for about 4 hours or LOW for about 8 hours. Add frozen peas for last 30 minutes.

Serve with crusty bread.

This sounds incredible! I wonder if I could sneak it past DW....she usually won't eat lamb (too cute).

If there ever was any doubt that you eat first with your eyes, that pic will put TBay to rest.

Thanks for the nice words about the lamb stew, everyone!

Dee, the photo you posted was part of a series I posted on DC when I made Ask A Butcher's Grilled/Smoked Chili. Because I am "One of the Banned", the mods removed my photos from the post, but left AAB's recipe.

I PM'd the recipe to you, since evidently, we're not supposed to post other DC members' recipes here.

I can, however, post the pictures of when I made it. I'll do that in a separate thread.

I made this again this week with some cheap lamb stew meat. GREAT!

But this time, instead of potatoes, I boiled up some fresh gnocchi and put some in the bowls, then ladeled the stew over it.

I much prefer the gnocchi to potatoes in this! So, I guess it's an Irish-Italian Lamb Stew!

It looks good, Lee. Although I haven't been able to get my head around lamb.
My mother loved it so I had to eat it as a kid but never liked it.

LOL that's a dangerous combination (I should know!)

Interesting tactic gnocchi in stew
