Camden, ME – Kick-off the season of outdoor cooking with Greek Lamb Kebabs. Join Lani Temple of Megunticook Market and host Rob Caldwell of WCSH’s 207 as they make healthy yogurt marinated lamb kebabs on WCSH’s 207 on Thursday, April 1st at 7pm. If you miss the show, get the recipe online at 207’s website, www.wcsh6.com.
For the kebabs, use a lamb shoulder or leg of lamb cut into large cubes and soaked overnight in yogurt to keep the lamb meat tender and flavorful. Kebabs are easily prepared for a weeknight family meal at home or an Easter Sunday dinner.

Although lamb is available year-round with today’s practices of animal husbandry, spring lamb was once associated with a young animal harvested in the spring and prized because of its tenderness. Lamb has long been a traditional centerpiece for an Easter meal.
If you are a locavore and committed to seeking local sources for food in Maine, try the lamb from Ellsfarm. Perry Ells raises the sheep “all natural” eating a diet of fresh grass from frost to frost and grains void of antibiotics and synthetic hormones for the remainder of the year. Ellsfarm is a small 63-acre family owned sheep farm located on a hill top in Union, Maine. Ellsfarm lamb is available at local food markets in mid-coast Maine.
Lani Temple, owner of Megunticook Market in Camden, Maine, is a regular guest on 207 and is a columnist for Maine Food & Lifestyle Magazine.
