American cuisine is noted for the absence of lamb and mutton dishes, and sheep are not widely farmed, perhaps because the idea of a sheep ranch might be perceived as undermining the national 'frontier' self image.

The [[Hawick Blueface]], native to the uplands of Roxburghshire and the Scottish Borders, is the largest native variety of British sheep. Its name derives from its characteristic mid-grey (not blue) face. Bluefaces provide a heavy yield of wool and the meat is fatty with a good flavour.
