Lamb blade steak is an economical but flavorful cut of lamb. It is also referred to as lamb blade chop or lamb shoulder chop.

What Are Lamb Blade Steaks?


Lamb blade steaks are cut from the shoulder (also called the blade section) of the lamb. These steaks include part of the shoulder blade bone and are marbled with fat and connective tissue, giving them a rich, meaty flavor and great texture when cooked properly.

  • Economical – A more affordable steak option that still delivers on taste.

  • Bone-In – Adds flavor and juiciness during cooking.

Lamb blade steaks can be grilled, broiled, braised, or pan-seared depending on your preference.

  1. Marinate to tenderize and boost flavor.

  2. Grill or sear over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side for medium doneness.

  3. For tenderness, consider braising in broth or wine for 1.5–2 hours.

We purchase 2–3 lambs a year from Great Lakes Lamb, and it is by far the best lamb we’ve ever had. The flavor is outstanding, and the meat is always tender and delicious. On top of the quality, the customer service is consistently exceptional. Highly recommend!

Wow! I can’t say enough about the quality of this meat! It was incredibly tender and flavorful. The shipping was fast, and I especially appreciated the recipe book, note from the farmers, and reminder that the ice blankets and cooler can be reused! I’m always happy to support a small business, it’s easy when their product is some of the best meat I’ve ever tasted! I highly recommend, and I can’t wait to order again!
