Long before there was a goat roast at Painted Hand Farm, there was the Skarlatos family lamb roast on the Saturday prior to Labor Day. They had such a cool rotisserie, that we asked to borrow it to roast a goat prior to it being put away for the following year. Given that the lamb roast is always a late night gig that usually culminates with everyone using the hay wagon as a dance floor under the stars and illuminated by a bonfire, we need at least a day to recover before we can toss another shindig. Even though we now have our own
Kane BBQs (here's a great shot of the Kane Clamps--a must for roasting whole animals on a spit), the Labor Day date has stuck. This year's lamb came from Otterbein Acres, just down the road. The grass-fed lamb was phenomenal!
As always, Spiro, Danny, Bob and Brian do the carving
And Mac brings home-churned ice cream.
Spanikopita anyone?
No lamb roast would be complete without a ride around the farm on the hay wagon.
