mutton

The flesh of fully grown sheep.

[Middle English, from Old French mouton, moton, from Medieval Latin multō, multōn-, of Celtic origin.]

Meat from the fully grown sheep, Ovis aries. (Lamb is from animals under 1 year old.) Depending on the cut, protein ranges are 12-18%; fat, 13-32%; energy, 195-380 kcal (820-1600 kJ). A 150-g portion of fillet (5% fat) is a rich source of protein and niacin; a good source of vitamin B₂; a source of iron and vitamin B₁; supplies 180 kcal (750 kJ).

Meat obtained from ewe, wether, hogget or ram and from lambs not finished to lamb quality.
