ALB Shines at The Chef Conference
The American Lamb Board proudly sponsored a new culinary event: The Chef Conference. This immersive, multi-day gathering brought together some of the country’s most talented chefs, innovators, and thought leaders.
The event’s chef-centric focus was a fantastic fit for introducing American Lamb to a group of people responsible for crafting menus, experimenting with flavors, and inspiring their teams daily.
This fast-paced, high-energy conference kept many attendees running between sessions. ALB provided American Lamb meat sticks sourced from David Fisher’s HF4 Ranch—a perfect grab-and-go snack for chefs running between panels. These flavorful bites were a hit and helped spark conversations about American Lamb.
In addition to the grab-and-go meat sticks, ALB was able to feature American Lamb at meals throughout the event, including:
American Lamb Meatballs with Tzatziki
Lamb Neck Sliders, Ribs, and Skewers
Lamb Shoulder with Rouge di Bordeaux Mafaldine
Cold Lamb Shoulder Rice Roll wrapped in Wilted Kale with Flaky Salt
“The opportunity to introduce so many culinary artists and decision makers to so many American Lamb dishes proved to be a huge opportunity,” said ALB Chairman Jeff Ebert. “This event is a great opportunity to connect with influential chefs and get American Lamb on more menus.”
The Chef Conference hosts three events annually. Moving forward, ALB plans to expand involvement, including more post-panel dinners, conference lunches, and restaurant-driven experiences—where chefs and guests can sit, savor, and truly connect with the story of American Lamb.
