The other breeds have that gamey taste and are real “greasy.” Mine are super lean which is nice because the fat is what really tastes bad. If you’re able to find a Jacob farm around you (which shouldn’t be too hard up there), you should try them out. It is good! :)

So it sounds like I need to be looking for the breed, very interesting. But makes sense. Thanks for this post.
