Reheating Lamb - Oven, Hob & Microwave

Back to lamb

Cooked lamb can dry out quickly in the fridge or freezer so it’s best reheated in sauce or gravy. Reheat thoroughly until piping hot and the centre of the meat reaches a core temperature of 77℃ when bacteria is destroyed. The most effective methods for reheating lamb are in a microwave, on the hob and in the oven.
