Pulled lamb – BBQ pulled lamb is super easy to make. You just need some patience and a few minutes of hands-on prep time. Perfect to include it in your weekly meal prep routine.
Buns – I use soft ciabatta rolls but brioche buns, sesame burger buns, or even pretzel burger buns will work well.
Coleslaw – Mayonnaise dresses coleslaw gives the burgers extra moisture and a crunchy texture next to the tender pulled lamb.
