Double Frenched Rack of Lamb from Córdoba by COVAP

These Frenched racks of Spanish lamb are tender and delicately flavored, a perfect centerpiece for any special meal. Nicely trimmed, they are ready to be carved at the table or cut into chops for grilling. Your guests have never tasted a lamb with such a mild flavor and texture.

These two full lamb racks are expertly Frenched, with the bones carefully trimmed for an elegant presentation. As they roast, the exterior caramelizes to a golden crisp, while the meat inside stays tender, juicy and flavorful.

Why is this Spanish lamb so much better? It starts with the lambs, which are much smaller than the American versions. The meat has a tender bite and a subtly sweet flavor that’s free of any gamey notes.

Raised in the ancient dehesa rangelands of southern Spain, these lambs (called corderos in Spanish) graze in the same storied landscape that produces the world-renowned Ibérico pig. After months of roaming, they’re transported a short distance to COVAP’s Bienestar WELFAIR™-certified humane finishing center, where they’re fed with high-quality grains to enrich their flavor and texture.

At the heart of this process is COVAP, Spain’s largest farmers’ cooperative, known for its commitment to animal welfare and exceptional food quality. Located right in the dehesa, COVAP’s facilities are next to the pastures—ensuring minimal transport, maximum freshness and a taste that speaks of tradition, care and culinary excellence.
