Mutton does have a different flavour, but generally it's pretty tough unless you're slow cooking it in some kind of juice, ie casserole or a curry perhaps.

We don't get much mutton in the shops here, and lamb is through the roof price wise so we don't get much of either in our house. I like the taste of mutton though. If you shave a mutton roast and use it for sandwiches with chutney or mint jelly it's really yummmm.
