Food Stall: Customers Chase Me across the Country-Chapter 385 - 386: Let’s Split It Up and Roast the Whole Lamb

Chapter 385: Chapter 386: Let’s Split It Up and Roast the Whole Lamb

Amateurs watch the fun, professionals watch the technique.

Zaike naturally watched the technique.

It was his first time seeing someone treat a whole roasted lamb like skewered lamb.

Though theoretically possible, the size of a whole roast lamb makes it much harder to handle than skewers.

He admitted he didn’t have the skill for it; controlling the temperature was truly difficult.

What was that kid thinking? How could he dare to try such a big challenge?

Wang Fan really didn’t think that much about it.

The fearless calf is not afraid of the tiger. Lamb skewers are grilled, and a whole lamb is grilled too. Anyway, he simulated it many times in his dreams, and basically avoided all the problems.

The roasting would completely eclipse the color of the ones produced from the pit. He believed that in terms of taste and flavor, his whole roast lamb, combining the advantages of the pit and grilling, would surely stand out.

The people on site were no longer interested in doing anything else, including the townsfolk who had also stopped what they were doing. After all, the bonfire party is held after dinner, so stopping to wait for dinner couldn’t be unreasonable, right?

Honestly, having lived for so many years, I’ve eaten quite a few whole roasted lambs, but it’s my first time seeing one not cooked in a pit, and the flavor and color are truly irresistible.

Shen Teng and his group immediately took out their phones to snap pictures of the lamb, flooding the group chat and Weibo, instantly causing waves of exclamations and envy.

"Holy moly! Guys, enough! Just enjoy it quietly yourselves, why provoke our resentment by posting it?!"

"If your goal was to make me drool, I admit you’ve succeeded."

"Grilled skewers can’t stop Boss Wang anymore, even grilling whole lambs now?"

"I guess this whole lamb must be at least 50 pounds, right? I once ate a 25-pound one, and it felt much smaller than this."

"So unfair! I only left Aksu this afternoon, and tonight you’re having both a whole roast lamb and a bonfire party? Trying to sneak attack a forty-year-old like me, huh? Just wait, I’m driving back now!"

Shen Teng laughed with great satisfaction, feeling ecstatic to the point of bubbling over.

This sense of having something yourself that others don’t is simply delightful to madness.

Except the drool in his mouth couldn’t be contained, that’s the only downside.

Just looking at the photos made people drool uncontrollably, who at the scene watching and smelling could resist?

He was already imagining how delicious this whole roast lamb could be...

"Time to eat."

Wang Fan’s voice came through, sounding like a heavenly melody to everyone.

Almost instantly, he was surrounded by a crowd hungry to be fed.

Zaike stepped forward to help Wang Fan lift the rack and place it on a large platter nearby.

"Thank you."

After thanking Zaike, Wang Fan utilized his height advantage to scan the surroundings, then he appeared somewhat worried.

It seemed there were a few too many people?

With a quick glance, there must be more than thirty people, and even if the lamb had substantial weight, it wouldn’t be enough for everyone.

After thinking for a bit, he said to Zhuo Qianqian, "See if you can buy some lamb and bring it back. There are quite a few people, let’s prepare some more skewers."

Many of the people were invited by him, he certainly couldn’t let them leave unsatisfied.

Before Zhuo Qianqian could speak, Zaike smiled and said, "No need, I already brought 50 pounds of fresh lamb when I came, combined with your roast lamb it should be enough."

Zhuo Qianqian quickly introduced, "This is Uncle Zaike, he’s the best at roasting lamb here."

Wang Fan promptly greeted, "Hello, Uncle Zaike."

Zaike waved his hand, "No need to be so formal, we’re family now. Although you look young, your skills are truly seasoned, there are many areas where I need to learn from you."

Wang Fan, repeatedly modest, said, "I wouldn’t dare, I ought to learn from you."

"No need to be so modest, I’m not joking with you. I’ll help you when grilling later, but there are parts you’ll have to teach me, hahaha."

After the pleasantries, Wang Fan asked the town folk, "Have you taken enough pictures? If you’re done, I’ll start carving it."

The town folk nodded vigorously, "All done, go ahead."

With affirmation from the town folk, Wang Fan declared to those around, "There are a lot of people today, to be fair, I’ll be the one dividing this whole roast lamb. I’ll try to distribute the different meats evenly, so everyone gets a taste. There will be more skewers after, making sure everyone eats well and is satisfied!"

"Great!"

"No problem, Boss Wang, just do what you think is best."

"Boss Wang is so generous, we’ll wait to be fed, hahaha."

The night brings out people’s true nature more freely, mood more relaxed, and with such a joyful event, the enthusiasm of these fans was soaring high.

Putting on heatproof gloves and twisting open the fixed wires, Wang Fan grabbed a lamb leg.

"Tear..."

"Crunch..."

With a strong pull, a whole leg of lamb was torn off by him.

Everyone’s eyes were glued to the spot where the leg was ripped, and after getting a clear view, they couldn’t help but swallow a large gulp of saliva.

The crispy skin made a clear sound as it was torn, just hearing it, you knew how crispy the lamb skin was roasted.

But the highlight was the meat inside, practically capable of capturing everyone’s soul.

The tender, thick lamb leg meat, though irregular when torn, was captivating, yet what was truly unbearable was the juice contained within the meat fibers, large droplets gathered together, trickling down from the top pieces, making one desperately eager to catch it with their mouth.

The low-temperature slow roasting of the pit might have seeped out some juice, but how could an eighteen-month practiced lamb have so little juice? Most of it was still locked inside the meat.

The essences of the marinated ingredients, likewise slowly roasted into the depths of the meat, the chemical reactions from them merging with the juices was simply invincible.

"Tear..."

Wang Fan continued his actions, pulling apart two thick hind legs and two lean front legs into large chunks, then wielded the knife to quickly cut them into long strips, skin and meat together.

Next came the long ribs.

Arguably the hardest to grill, ribs would definitely make the list.

In many places, after grilling, the ribs’ sparse meat turns very dry, clinging stubbornly to the bone, leaving nowhere to bite.

But top-quality ingredients are different.

The rich fat content makes the rib meat appear exceptionally thick, and the slow-roasting mode at low temperature allowed the whole rib to easily separate from the bone.

The final charcoal grilling pressed out the excess fat from the ribs, making them look unbelievably tempting.
