lamb

Tom Leonard’s NAKED lamb is raised naturally and humanely in pristine pastures in New Zealand, feeding exclusively on fresh grasses, like clover, rye, and alfalfa, resulting in a mild flavor and superior tenderness. Plus, Tom’s butchers will trim NAKED lamb to any specifications, making it easier to prepare and enjoy at home.
