New Zealand lamb chump
New Zealand lamb chump
(price includes VAT)
Top-quality New Zealand lamb chump is the most preferred item by top chefs. It has a distinctive light coating of fat on the surface, which releases an abundance of juiciness and flavor into the meat during preparation. This beautiful rump of lamb is the equivalent of the picanha element in beef. However, it has even more tender meat. It can be grilled or pan-fried in a piece or cut into steaks. It will also be excellent roasted whole.
Description
Premium cut from the leg: the perfect balance of texture and tenderness
Lamb rump is a refined cut taken from the upper part of the leg, offering the best of both worlds - firm structure and natural tenderness typical of young lamb. With its fine muscle fibers and delicate marbling, it stays juicy and full of flavor after cooking. It’s a great choice for those looking to explore beyond classic beef steaks without compromising on quality or depth of taste.
New Zealand grass-fed lamb: pure, clean flavor
New Zealand lamb is widely regarded as some of the best in the world - and for good reason. Raised in open pastures and fed exclusively on grass, the meat develops a clean, slightly herbaceous flavor profile. Without intensive grain feeding, it remains leaner, more nutrient-dense, and naturally expressive in taste. It’s a perfect fit for those who value transparency, quality, and a more natural approach to food.
Delicate taste, modern versatility
Unlike older mutton, lamb rump offers a mild, elegant flavor without overpowering notes. This makes it incredibly versatile - equally suited to classic recipes and modern BBQ dishes. It’s a cut that invites creativity, whether you prefer simple grilling or more advanced cooking techniques.
How to cook lamb rump
This is a cut that gives you plenty of flexibility in the kitchen. You can go hot and fast or low and slow, depending on the result you’re after. It’s excellent grilled or pan-seared over high heat, developing a beautifully caramelized crust while staying juicy inside. It also works perfectly as a roast - prepared whole with rosemary, garlic, and olive oil for a Mediterranean touch. If you have more time, try sous vide or pressure cooking to achieve exceptional tenderness and a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
