Lamb Jam Sells Out D.C. Event

The 2025 Lamb Jam Tour made a stop in Washington, D.C., on May 21. The event transformed Autoshop, an exceptional event space in the vibrant Union Market District of Washington, D.C., into a lamb-lover’s paradise.

Seven local chefs curated lamb bites for 200 guests, which were served alongside craft beverages, sheep’s milk cheeses and lively entertainment. From the photo booth and caricature artist to the energetic beats, every detail brought people together for a memorable experience centered around American Lamb.  

“The D.C. Lamb Jam was a powerful celebration of our mission to elevate American Lamb and support the culinary creativity of chefs,” says ALB Chairman Jeff Ebert. “It set the tone for the rest of the tour, and we couldn’t have asked for a better turnout or more engaged crowd.”

After an evening of friendly competition among chefs, guests voted to crown the D.C. Lamb Jam Master. Dishes showcased the versatility of lamb from ribs to braised shoulder to lamb bacon!
