[Sca-cooks] Cheap Lamb

[lilinah at earthlink.net]

While this source may not be available in all places, i get my 
inexpensive lamb (about $1.99/lb) at one of my local halal markets 
that has a butcher in the back.

To me it looks like they cut the meat very much as they did in 
Indonesia. They take out the whole muscle longwise, rather than 
cutting across them into chops or steaks or roasts. Most of the 
people either want the meat for kebabs (i.e., cut in largish cubes), 
or cut for "stew", or ground. I don't know the culture enough to know 
if people actually specify which part of the animal they want their 
meat from. I would suppose some do.
