2025 Lamb Jam Kicks off in Atlanta

Atlanta knows how to Jam. Lamb Jam that is. The 2025 Lamb Jam made its first stop in the Big Peach on March 26, offering Lamb & Libations in celebration of family-operated farms and ranches raising sheep in the U.S.

From now through September, Lamb Jam will visit seven cities across the country, promoting American Lamb with live tasting events in each market.

Eight chefs vied for 2025 Atlanta Lamb Jam honors in the chef competition, offering eight delicious American lamb creations:

  • Demetrius Brown at Bread & Butterfly with Tasso,

  • Gustavo Hernandez at eclipse di luna with American Lamb Sliders,

  • Cam Floyd at Superica with Smoked + Braised Lamb Corn Cakes,

  • Milak Rhasaan at CHE BUTTER JONEZ with The Morocco Mole,

  • Brandon Chavannes at Ecco with Lamb Carpaccio,

  • Darragh Dudley at Ela with Lamb Belly,

  • Tony Dubose at Bold Monk Brewing Co. with Lamb Burger Slider, and

  • Jay Felton at Miller Union with Lamb Rillette.

Diners sampled each chef’s lamb bites at The Trolly Barn during the March 26 live Lamb Jam Happy Hour Tour event, along with beverage pairings, games and exclusive American Lamb swag.

Lamb Jam attendees voted on their favorite lamb bite, claiming Cam Floyd of Superica as the winner. His Smoked + Braised Lamb Corn Cakes featured Tomato Consommé', Chihuahua Pupusas, Salsa Macha, Tomato, and Cilantro. The TexMex eatery Superica is located in Dunwoody, Georgia, just outside of Atlanta. Local lamb producers, Tucker & Emily West of Liberty Farms Livestock provided the lamb for Chef Cam’s winning dish.

Floyd will now compete with future Lamb Jam winners at the end of the season in the Lamb Jam Finale.

Next stop: Austin.

The live Lamb Jam tour will hit the home of Texas BBQ on April 16, with tasting and drinks at Assembly Hall.

Chefs from Foreign & Domestic, KG BBQ, El Naranjo, Holiday, Olamaie, Gina’s, Micklethwait, and el Alma will compete for Austin’s Lamb Jam title.

Lamb Jam will then travel on to Washington D.C., Seattle, San Francisco, Boston and Denver from now through September. Tickets for the live Lamb Jam Happy Hour Tour events are available online at americanlamb.com/lamb-jam

Lamb Jam supports World Central Kitchen with a portion of proceeds from ticket and merchandise sales going directly to the organization, helping to provide meals to those in need, and responding to humanitarian, climate and community crises.
