    That lamb looks amazing. I haven’t had lamb since I was a small girl living on a sheep farm in Beaver, Pennsylvania. I remember picking strawberries from our large patch and rhubarb for pies, but for the life of me, I can’t remember what lamb taste like or if I even liked it. But again, the above photo looks amazing and it would be worth trying in my now “mature” years.

    I also use airfryer to make dinners every evening for my husband and I. The meat is never dry
    and it tastes delicious. I love cooking again because of the shorter cooking time and the
    cleanup is a breeze. We are eating healthier now, and the food tastes amazing.
