Exactly. It's your lamb, who cares what anyone else thinks? I know people who get all their weaners made into sausages, because they are easier to use up and to sell.
The only thing that occurs to me is to make sure that the fatty and lean get well-mixed. Usually it's not the best, leanest parts that get minced, so the ratio of fat and not-meat to lean meat is quite high.
If you are wanting alternatives to all mince, but not joints, you could have some leg steaks, loads of chops, and some diced. (Afelia!
)
