On this episode of The Farmer & The Foodie, Maggie and Lindsey travel to Western Kentucky to experience the unique tradition of mutton with two generational establishments: Palmer Farms in Benton, which processes fresh mutton for the region; and Old Hickory BBQ in Owensboro, which gives the hosts their first taste of mutton. In the kitchen, they whip up their spin on the Kentucky staple, Burgoo.
