What Are Lamb Arm Steaks?

Lamb arm steaks are cut from the shoulder (specifically the arm portion) of the lamb, including part of the round leg bone. This bone-in cut is typically about ¾ to 1 inch thick and contains a generous amount of connective tissue and fat, making it ideal for both quick cooking and long, slow braises.

Why Choose Lamb Arm Steaks?

• Bold Flavor – Packed with rich, meaty taste from natural marbling.

• Bone-In for Juiciness – The presence of bone enhances the depth of flavor.

• Budget-Friendly – A value cut that delivers gourmet taste.

• Great for Any Cooking Style – Equally delicious grilled, braised, or pan-seared.
