Let’s Talk About Sheep

Why Mutton Deserves a Permanent Spot in Your Freezer

If you’ve never bought mutton before, it’s time to change that. Because while most people are still paying top prices for bland grocery store beef, you could be feeding your family a better meat—healthier, more flavorful, and more cost-effective.

It’s More Nutritious Than Beef or Pork

Mutton (meat from mature sheep) is one of the most underrated sources of real nourishment.

It’s naturally rich in Iron and B12 – supports energy, blood health, and brain function. It’s high in zinc – strengthens immunity and healing. Loaded with healthy fats like omega-3s and CLA, the kind that reduce inflammation and support heart health. It’s even higher in protein than beef. Mutton is complete, clean, and filling.

And when it’s grass-fed, like ours at Locust Grove you’re getting meat the way nature intended, no grains, no feedlot stress, no weird additives.

Let’s talk about value. When you buy mutton by the whole or half animal, you’re stretching every dollar. You get roasts, ground, chops, stew cuts, and bones for broth. So nothing goes to waste. Pound for pound, it’s cheaper than buying individual cuts at the store and because mutton is nutrient-dense, you don’t need as much to feel full so your meals go farther.

Let’s talk about flavor.

Forget the old myth that mutton is “gamey.” That’s outdated nonsense.

When raised and processed properly, mutton is rich, savory, and deeply satisfying—like beef, but with more character.

You”ll be wondering why it took you so long to try.

Mutton should be a staple in your freezer.

It’s healthier than beef, more cost-effective than pork or chicken, better for the land absolutely packed with flavor and raised locally by families like ours.

If you care about eating clean, stretching your grocery dollars, and feeding your family well—mutton is the meat you’ve been missing.
