Lamb backstrap, is a high-quality lamb cut prized for its leanness, tenderness, and subtle flavour. Obtained from the upper portion of the lamb’s rib cage, it is best prepared medium-rare or medium doneness to preserve its juiciness and texture.
This versatile cut lends itself well to grilling, roasting, or pan-searing, offering a range of culinary possibilities.
At McKays, we offer not only plain lamb backstraps, but also a number of our specially flavoured marinated lamb backstraps such as Greek, Souvlaki, Honey, Mint and Rosemary, and Honey Soy for a variety of delicious choices.
Lamb backstraps are perfect for various dishes and recipes, whether it’s a quick meal or an impressive one. Here are some serving suggestions:
Rub the lamb backstrap with olive oil, salt, pepper, and preferred spices for optimal results. Heat the pan and add the meat, cooking each side for 3 to 4 minutes or until reaching the desired doneness. Let the meat rest for a few minutes. This method ensures a flavourful and tender outcome.
