Katie, lamb seems to be tolerated by a lot of folks who are sensitive to
beef or pork. Lamb fat doesn't taste real good esp. when heated to a
high temperature. I guess it breaks down. I trim lamb pretty well to
eliminate most of the visible fat. You're right -- as long as it doesn't
heat up a lot it tastes fine, but when it heats up a lot, it tastes
gamey.
