Its mild flavor also makes it versatile. lamb chops make an easy weeknight dinner, and a leg of lamb is a welcome change from the usual pork shoulder.Mutton is sheep that is older than one; it is usually harvested at about three years old. The meat has a deep red color and is much fattier than lamb. The leg and shoulder are most commonly prepared, but the meat is tough, so it's often stewed to help tenderize it.
