There are 13 days left I think? It ends the 10th, right? The 4th of July impedes things slightly for some people in the US, as well as the heatwave. I'll get at least 1 in before the deadline. I have 2 recipes but with the heat and holiday...

It uses lamb tenderloin, which is $42 for around 1.5 pounds at the 1 place I've found that carries that cut, and is also a bit of a drive. Still looking. I'm hoping the butcher type supermarket that's just down the

Is that the same as lamb neck fillet? Example:

I just bought some of the above here in the UK and it was approx. £20 a kilo. So that would translate to about 18 US dollars for 1.5 pounds. But maybe it's not the same cut.

It's a tenderloin, just like a beef or pork tenderloin, i.e. very tender. What I found for a neck fillet seems to be a working muscle, needing long cooking,

I think that lamb loin is the same cut as beef and pork loin, fairly tender, but still larger and not as tender as the tenderloin cuts of each animal.
