Lamb belly is a succulent and flavorful cut of meat that has been a staple in various cuisines for centuries. This lesser-known cut comes from the belly of the lamb and is prized for its rich, fatty texture and intense flavor. Chefs around the world have embraced this cut, using it in a variety of dishes, from slow-roasted to grilled preparations. In recent years, it has gained popularity in upscale restaurants and gastropubs, particularly in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. The best versions of this dish can be found in renowned restaurants in regions known for their lamb production, such as New Zealand and the Mediterranean. When preparing lamb belly, it's crucial to get the seasoning and cooking time just right to achieve the perfect balance of tenderness and flavor.
