I don't commonly eat either(?)... so I wouldn't know Smile But mutton I would usually attributed to adult sheep flesh, although the meat shouldn't change too much through maturation of the sheep... so it should still be a word that can describe just plain out 'sheep meat'.

You're not an Aussie or a Kiwi are you?

'Sheep meat'





Here meat from sheep is divided into two distinct and crucial types:

Lamb and Hogget. (mutton): There is a vast difference in flavour, cooking methods and price.Lamb is the preferred meat. It is more tender ,has less fat,is easier to cook,and lacks the unpleasant smell hogget can have when cooking. In Australia the term 'lamb' has a precise legal definition.:

The definition of a lamb in Australia has long been very simple: none of its adult teeth have broken through. If they have, the animal becomes hogget and its carcass does not get stamped with the pink lamb branding that denotes a premium cut.

The definition is broader in less sophisticated countries,such as New Zealand,UK and the US.
