Some countries just don't 'do' lamb and sheep meat. It is very commonly eaten in North Africa and the Middle East. It is also common in the United Kingdom, Australia, and New Zealand, but not elsewhere. Americans seem to be freaked out by it, but there is, I believe, some interest in BBQ sheep meat in Kentucky. Lamb is generally more expensive than most meats, so it only tends to be raised and/or sold in places where nothing else can be grown (poor soil, or where cultural or religious requirements make it a choice meat. Thus there is a thriving market where it is grown in temperate places such as the United Kingdom and New Zealand (or some places such as Australia) and then shipped to regions such as the Middle East where it is appreciated. For those not familiar with it, it can be a bit gamey, but as a Brit, I grew up with it and it was a particular treat.

Lol, The names of the spices and their explanations mentioned by this Israeli man are very funny. All these spices have Arabic names, but the Jewish immigrants who emigrated to Palestine during last 60 years were trying as best they could to pronounce these Arabic names according to their ability to understand the meaning of spices and how to prepare them. But this young man seems very unsuccessful.

I've been buying lamb from a small, local farm at a farmer's market for years, and they know that I enjoy some of the less popular cuts, so often times they'll make sure to bring a whole neck to the market, just for me. I've got to give that particular recipe (with regionally required modifications) a try! Oh Yeah!

If you get the chance to spend some time with people from the middle east, especially if you get to experience their hospitality, you're in for a treat. Some of the most wholesome, down to earth and generous peoples you'll come across. Good work Chef.

I was brought up with lamb neck stew. Pearl barley, onion, potatoes, carrot ect the works. One of the only things that I wish I could recreate from my childhood, I can remember eating it for days adding more water to keep it running. Great stuff

Different meat, different spices, different cooking technique, totally different outcome of the dish. How can you call porchetta something that doesn't look, taste or even remotely resemble a porchetta? Just call it stuffed lamb neck

It wierd that he put comin, ras el hanout, baharat and 5 spices in there. Except for the cumin they are spice mixes. Ras el hanout and baharat contain cumin. Why not mix the spices yourself. You can control the flavour much better.
reply

Ras el Hanout is a moroccan spice mix. You can't say its middle easterian mix. But the rest he is correct. Every spice shop owner had a mix that makes him special.
reply

I think this guy is jewish, and the spices whos told you is in arabic names like ras al hanot this is in arabic language also buharat = mix of spices, keep the nice work

Israelis don't have their own food. like everything else. They stole it. They stole an identity, a culture, a language, a history and a country. Thieves and liars.
