Summer Lamb Kabobs

SUBMITTED BY: Seneca Castle Lamb & Gardens PHOTO BY: PARKER71

"This is an awesome treat for the summer grill. We raise grass fed lambs that are weaned naturally. Experimenting with lamb recipes over the past 15 years has become a hobby. Lamb and garlic go so well together. In this recipe the combination of herbs and spices complement this meat and make a great family and friend favorite."
