Ovation Suckling
Suckling lamb is traditionally slow roasted, but can also be braised. Because of its mild flavor, it is often rubbed with olive oil and salt, plus one or two more other simple seasonings. These seasonings can include garlic, sweet paprika, lemon, fresh herbs (rosemary, sage, and/or thyme), and/or black pepper.

What the French call "Pintade" is commonly known in America as Guinea Fowl or Guinea Hen. Most American-raised guineas are tough and gamey because they're bred to protect farms from pets and predators - not for culinary experience. Our partner's delicious Pintades come from a French breeding stock of the finest ISA Essor Guinea Fowl and are raised naturally on small family farms. That's why our partner's Pintade Fermiere is the best-tasting guinea in America.
Our partner raises their Heritage Guineas with old-world care and tradition on their small family farms using "never EVER" standards of purity. Then, they go beyond even that. They require their farmers to raise the birds using French Label Rouge guidelines The Best Lineage: Only certain genetics are allowed. Slow-growing breeds tend to be heartier and more disease resistant for free-range life than commercial breeds. Small Houses on Small Farms: Smaller poultry houses are required than in industrial farms, and houses per farm are limited to four. This assures the care and attention of being raised by small farmers. Access to the Outside: After six weeks of age, birds are given access to the outdoors from 9 a.m. until dusk. Slow Growing: Birds are grown a minimum of 75 days, much longer than commercial birds.

Pasture-raised in Spain on a diet of grain, grass, forage and acorns. Protected from the central mountainous region of the Iberian Peninsula, the privileged microclimate in this area with its cold, dry winters and its short, mild summers is an ideal setting for our hams to dry and mature perfectly. In this area, with its unbeatable microclimate, every day hundreds of artisans, who are sons and grandsons of artisans, slowly and masterfully create the Guijuelo Iberian Ham, which is a 'one-of-a-kind in the world.'
